Does it have a * star next to KHOT, if so, it is a Temporary Tower, and they can be open any hours they want! or even be "closed" till FAA reclassifies it!
I have talked to all three facilities, that's how I into contact with the guys at lifenet and angel one, everyone gave me permission to fly. The helicopter guys are realistically my biggest concern, they have flown over my office before.
Very sad responsible people like you are punished for all the morons who were flying around airports without purpose or knowledge of the regs. I hope as you've said that those sorts of situations can be remedied soon.
Honestly it shouldn't matter. Once yuneec sells the drone...they are no longer responsible. Yuneec has no right to tell us how to fly. Only the faa can do that. Thats like a GM building the corvette and restricring it to 65 mph and restricting its acceleration capabilities.
Non controlled airports are class E airspace, which requires approval. Since no tower you would have to apply for coa at least 90 days before you fly.
Yuneec has a "little: man inside the H with a B4UFly app on his phone, and if he see's your inside the Yellow circle, he throws a switch off! LOL !
Called a programmable icu chip ! Could be on a GPS of it's own that's not for flight capabilities, but specifically for location ? Interesting question!
Yes, but you can't fly above 400AGL, unless you get a COA to inspect the tower, then you can fly up to 1500, but believe me , you will not even see your sUAS after 600 feet up and how will you navigate around the tower with out visual LOS around it and the camera will not give you good distance and bearing perspective! You can fly 400' over a building that is 600" tall = 1000 AGL with a 107
DC.. U don't need a coa to inspect tower. U can fly 400' above the tower agl, within 400' of it.
ATC centers. The likely hood of you flying in E is slim since generally over airports it starts at 700 agl and everywhere else at 1200 agl
