The Drone Thread

[AWholeNewWorld]

A few questions hopping someone experienced in this field can help out.

I'd a oversea friend working in the tourism industry coming to SG to film a few videos for his company. He asked if flying a drones around mount faber park was allowed and if there's any restrictions around it? If not, is there any ways he can apply for a permit to do it?

Well, you can get all the infos from https://flywhere.sg .

Basically:
- Mount Faber is not listed in Npark's NFZ

- Your activity tag under "Operations that are Non-recreational or Non-research in Nature"

- If play under "Operations that are Recreational or Research in Nature" , Class 2 Activity Permit is needed to fly at higher than 200ft (60m height) AMSL* , which Mount Faber's highest point already at ~105m ...

Hello,

I'm new to the drone hobby and new on this forum.

I've been struggling to find info on where would I be allowed to fly my drone. I have read the rules on caas website though.

Could you share with me how you guys figure out where to fly?

Also if you have any advice of location where I can go and play with my drone please let me know.

Thanks in advance

Thanks.

So it's a reliable source? Any place not highlighted is safe?

What are the rules regarding smaller parks (like Tiong Bahru Park for instance)?

Also, if you have any advise on where I could go for flying let me know.

Thanks again

Hi,

Anybody from the group have knowledge or interest in this topic?

I'm looking to write a white paper on it and hopefully leading to a POC. So I am looking to find a collaborator.

I'm using ND4. I bought only ND4 for Spark, Mavic2 and Osmo Pocket. I do not point my drones/Osmo to sunset or sunrise.

if you are professional photographer, get the whole set.

Drones seems pretty cool at night haha

I don't fly drones but I do watch this guy's channel. According to him, you now need the equivalent of a pilots license to fly a drone in Canada.

Jjpro x5 or sjrc f11 pro?

 

[Quadcopter]

Jjpro x5 or sjrc f11 pro?

(Better don't fly drones these few months, until NDP, F1 are over)

My suggestion, try spend S$100 more and get a (all ~S$400):
- a new set Hubsan H117S,... or
- a new set Fimi A3,.. or
- a used DJI Spark

I do not own or fly a Hubsan H117S/Fimi A3 before.
But I'm still flying my Spark often

H117S and Spark are Digital Video transmission
Fimi A3 is Analogue Video transmission
