Airborne aerial filming professionals in Sydney explain areas to avoid when flying your recreational drone

So, you have a recreation drone, or in other words, it weighs less than 2 kgs and you are using it for personal recreational purposes, but you aren't sure where to fly or what rules you must follow.

Here our experts in professional drone videography in Sydney explain where you must avoid according to Government Regulations:
- over groups of people, including beaches, parks, sports ovals and public events
- higher than 400 feet (120m) in all airspace
- closer than 30m during take-off, flight or landing to anyone not involved in flying the drone
- closer than 5.5km to controlled aerodromes if your drone weighs more than 100g
in bad weather, into a cloud or at night
- in the area of a public safety or emergency operation, for example a bush fire, police, or search and rescue operation
- within 5.5 kilometres of a non-controlled aerodrome, if there is a manned aircraft operating to, or from the aerodrome.
