A good reminder from myPolice Rockhampton Region 👍🏼
There are quite a few more rules and requirements around flying drones than what can be covered in a quick post like this.
If you own or operate a drone, CASA should always be your primary source of information on where and how you can legally fly.
We’ve seen an increase in calls for service and community safety concerns related to drone use. If you own and operate a drone, please ensure your drones are:
👉 Not flown above 120 metres from ground level
👉 Not flown over populous areas (houses roadways, gatherings, beaches)
👉 Not flown within 30 metres of people
👉 Kept within your line of sight
If you witness unsafe drone operations, you can report the behaviour to the Civil Aviation Safety Authority here: www.casa.gov.au/about-us/contact-us/report-unsafe-drone-use
