Thank you for the detailed information. I was planning to visit camino de santiago with my mini2, but I give up finally.. There is too many regulated location, and notam for yellow area is too long... Since there's are not much data about flying in Europe in my country, your video really helped me. Now I can enjoy the camino with lighter backpack :(
What about the new regulations taking effect January 2024 in all EU? I read somewhere that the Mini 4 with the “0” label/category will supposedly allow flying over cities but will have the 120m “hard” altitude limit. Is that true, or it doesn't apply to Spain? Being able to fly over urban areas, even with the altitude limit, is better than nothing.
Good point. With JAN 2024 the 120m is also valid for Spain as it is part of the EU. Meaning the c0 labelled drones are max altituded. However Spain has an additional regulation to not fly in urban areas.
Thanks for the video mate! I was looking for one that showed exactly that. I'm going to do the Camino de Santiago in May and I need to know exactly what I need to do to legally fly my drone. One question, which company did you hire for the insurance? I will need to hire (I'm from Brazil) and it will probably have to be a Spanish company.
You're pretty much welcome. It's great news that you plan to do the Camino! You will have amazing spots to launch your drone and capture footage from above. In my case I am working with getsafe. It is a German company. However it doesn't matter in Europe, if the insurance is from the country you are flying or from a different country. 😉 You only need to able to prove, that your drone has an insurance.
@@doatrip France is a nightmare, extremely beautiful, but with so many places you can't fly a drone. The French are ultra obsessed with enforcing rules. The Géoportail app is your friend in France.
Thanks mate, I need to check this app out. Also have read that you need a general permission from the authorities to launch a drone. Gonna investigate on that.
Mainly Europe is pretty restrictive in terms of drones. Have you already checked you area with EnaireDrone? I would recommend you doing it, maybe you reach an area where you can use it.
I don't think so. Those who follow the video carefully will know what you can and cannot do with a drone in Spain. Apart from that the title says also Enaire Drone and VLOG
Why do you say that? At least we know it’s essential to take ND filters, an SSD, a wide-angle lens, and an SD card reader when traveling to Spain. With this equipment, you’re almost safe!
Das weiss ich leider nicht. Ich nutze keine Apple-Produkte. Aber du kannst die Daten direkt über den Browser aufrufen, wenn es die App im AppStore nicht gibt.
EU wide the op ID is valid. But since brexit of UK I am not 100% sure. But I guess it's the same like with USA. If you have your FAA ID, you can use it in the EU.
@@doatrip no you have to have a separate id, been searching like mad to sort this out for myself as I visit Spain and want to take my drone, mini 4. it looks like Spain does not have to much open or fly zones did you find anything else out or get a id operator or licence ? many thanks
Vielen Dank für die vielen Infos! :) Kannst du mir sagen, ob man für Spanien eine spezielle "Lizenz" braucht, um die Mini DJI fliegen zu lassen? Und wenn ja, wo kann ich sie bekommen? :)
Gerne, freut mich, wenn es jemand gebrauchen kann. Nein, für die Mini Serie brauchst du in Spanien nichts Spezielles. Es gilt das gleiche, wie in Deutschland auch. Empfehlenswert ist auf jeden Fall deine Fernpiloten-Lizenz vom Luftfahrtbundesamt dabei zu haben. Ich fliege viel in Spanien, musste bisher aber nie irgendwo irgendwas vorzeigen. Einfach mit Hilfe von Drone Enaire an die Flugverbotszonen halten. 😉
you are very welcome. It depends were you are going. There are plenty of spots you can use it. For example, I love flying in the north of Spain in Cantabria for example: ua-cam.com/video/bb03430lac4/v-deo.html
@@doatrip Tenerife, Canary islands, more than half island is natural park, the rest with two airports one at south and one at north. very few spots were I could fly without running into troubles. I have a RePL and the drone is a mini4
I fully agree. Close to airports I would always avoid flying. But I made good experiences by asking police officers or guardia civil. I am often in Spain and just head over to such ppl showing them my drone asking them if I may fly. In most of the cases they agree and are really friendly.
@@doatrip ich wusste tatsächlich nicht das es ne App gibt 😁. Hab immer die Website genutzt. Du hast aber absolut recht die Spanier sind was Drohnen angeht extrem streng. Auf den Kanaren ist das noch intensiver

Word! I fully share your view! It is rediculous what's going on. And it kills all the fun those devices are normally bringing. Basically when you are a drone pilot you are halfway in jail due to the regulations. And none of the pilots will always know each single nofly zone even when using all the apps and websites and governantal sources. Anyway I keep flying because I really like it. I try to be informed as good as possible. Apart from lots of Karen's out there in public, I never met a bad police officers. All of them were quite communicative and helped finding good spots in case the one I've chosen was not okay. 🙂 Don't forget: Life is too short to be a free. 😉
Doubtful that Spain is "an ideal destination for drone enthusiasts". I'm in fact in Andalusia, and there is not one SINGLE place interesting where the drone can be flown: 1- Sevilla with the Alcazar and the Cathedral? nope 2- Granada and the Alhambra? nope 3- Gibraltar? nope 4- Tarifa? nope 5- Ok, what about that small city of Ronda? no chance ... Seriously I've seen all these places and I've never been able to use my drone (sub 250g). Hell, not even hikes in the middle of nowhere can be pictured, such as the Caminito del Rey - yes 50km from Malaga and still too close from the airport!.. Sorry, but while Spain has certainly a lot of captivating sights, one shall not hope to fly his drone
Well I did several flights in Andalusia. But basically you are right. All urban areas are protected. But for example close to Carmona is possible to fly or even behind Bomuchos etc. Enaire Drone is quite helpful.
@doatrip do u know of any good places in Spain to fly drone without being fined 6k euroes.? What if you shoot a video in an illegal to fly zone and they later find that video on UA-cam. Will you still be fined?
@@Dronie-SkyVistas can't tell you because I haven't done such things before. Try to stay legal as much as you can. Recommendable spots exist a lot and it depends on what you are interested. In terms of coastline go to the north of Spain. When you want to have Roman ruins, check Andalusia and southern coastline. If you want to have mountains and valley try in the Pyrenees. One of my favorit spots is Bufones de Pria. Check my channel, you will find it there. 😉

Spanien ... so schöne Aufnahmen eines tollen Landes. ❤
Danke für die Erläuterungen zu den Regularien.
Immer wieder gerne!
Sehr cooles Video mit sehr schönen Bildern 👍🎥 aber das es beim Drohnen fliegen regeln gibt ist mir neu 😇😅🙋♂
😂😂 bessere wäre alles, wenn es keine gäbe. Aber immerhin verfügen dir Spanier über deutlich mehr freigegebene Zonen, als wir in Deutschland haben.
Hi can you kindly suggest the link for the battery terminal cover? I cant find one here in the Netherlands. great video by the way.

How does Enare-Drone compare to DJI Fly spots?
I don't think that both works in a collaboration. If you are in Spain, I would recommend to rely on Enaire drone.
Epic video! I like the dynamic tempo of your edit.
Thanks mate. Really appreciate it. Unfortunately the algorithm seems not to like it much. 😑

Iyou are welcome. 😉
If you plan to stay only in Madrid it's useless.
If you plan to go out there to the countryside, take it with you. 😉
Very interesting, regs are definitely tough in Spain, much like France 👍
Oh France. I need to inform myself about France - planning to go there next. 👍

Which drone is best💸
Mini 4 Pro at the moment
okay, leaving the dronie home during my upcoming trip to Spain. In general, all of Europe is like this? this really sucks

nice to meet you.
We had time together. I was able to see a very nice scenery and it left an impression on me.
Happy New Year^^
