Remember, flying responsibly and understanding the laws are key to enjoying the world of drones. Watch now to become a savvy and compliant drone pilot in the EU! 🚀📡
These new regulations have nothing to do with safety, as drones have been operating for years without serious problems. It is just another way to restrict private consumers. And Norway (which is not part of the EU) is charging 1400 NOK (about 124 euros) for the practical test for the larger drones. They are just trying to kill the hobby.
Jerry
That's a facetious argument.
Drones "have been operating for years without serious problems", but now more and more people own and operate drones, so the likelihood of incidents is always increasing.
@@miguelsilva9118 Disagree. What serious problems have consumer drones caused? Whilst there is always a risk in doing anything (including flying drones) the risk from consumer drone is, and remains, extremely small. The new laws are purely to give governments more controls over something that does not need anymore control.
Jerry
@@theworldssexiestman I don't know what serious problems have been caused, I don't keep up with all happenings involving drones worldwide, and I very much doubt you so either, so you telling "no serious problem has ever been caused by a drone" has basically zero meaning.
Whether serious problems have or have not been caused by operating drones, there sure is the potential to. If someone flies a drone onto a busy street/road (on purpose or by accident), you can cause a serious problem. If you're flying over large concentrations of people and your drone has a problem and falls out of the sky, it can hit someone on the head and cause serious injury.
I could go on and on. You have a flying object that can weigh several kilos and that can fly 50/60/70 km/h, of course it has the potential to do serious damage. Not to mention the potential to violate people's privacy.
Will regulations prevent all accidents and misdemeanours? Definitely not. But as more and more people use and operate drones (it seems everyone and their uncle has a drone these days, and it's only going to increase), regulations will have to come into force or it will just be a wild west out there.
@@miguelsilva9118 Still disagree. According to that logic then you would support more regulations for cars, as there are more of them now and, according to your logic, they might cause accidents. My kitchen knife has the potential to 'cause a serious problem' but there is absolutely no need for more regulations. Same things with drones. You have to look at the risk and the LIKELYHOOD of that risk. Years of experience with consumer drones has shown that they are not causing many (if any) serious accidents. Putting a C-3 sticker on my drone does not make it any safer. The new regulations are merely there to increase control over people, not for safety.
Jerry
@@theworldssexiestman I'm glad you brought up cars. I purposely left them out of my argument, just to see if you'd bite. Thanks for biting.
Drones are (or were, until a couple of years ago) where cars were in their first few decades of use. There were relatively few of them, they didn't go *that* fast. There were relatively few rules governing them. But they were still dangerous. And as they got faster and heavier and much more numerous, the regulations had to become tighter. Can you imagine if we still had the same rules regarding cars as we had in the 1920's? It'd be absolute carnage out there.
So yeah. As it happened with cars when they started getting more and more ubiquitous, so it is happening with drones. We can discuss specific regulations, and whether this regulation will work and that one won't. But to say that "things are fine as they are" when you're getting exponential growth in amateur drone ownership and operation... I think it's just trying to ignore reality and attempting to live in the "good old days". They're gone, mate.
Thanks, Henrik, well explained!
However, this is just the easiest part, because after overcoming all these complications and obtaining all the requirements: license, insurance, and drones. Then the second layer of ridiculous local rules come to apply, where technically you have to find a desert in Europe to fly your tiny selfie stick😵💫, really I don't know guys how you manage your flights legally🤔
Under 250g is not really that bad
Yeah, C0 is allowed pretty much everywhere, all it takes is a pilot registration that's done online in a few minutes. The most restrictive is Germany, i think it requires insurance, while most other countries only advise them.
Thanks Henrik. Although I am English, I do hold the EASA Flyer ID and Certificate of Competence as I do fly in the EU. A very well presented video that explains the new rules in a clear and precise way.
Happy New Year to you.
Thank you. Extremely well explained. Although resident in the UK I'm a EU National. I will need to check the A2CoC in the EU. I thought it was like the UK CAA C2CoC where its wholly theoretical. Thanks Again.
I still want people in high places to come and demonstrate the 30meter rule, and when I'm vertical above the people. My space on the ground is about 200 sq cm, outside that space, I'm not flying over people. Oh, don't you just LOVE "grey area".
Rules are rules and look good in the eyes of ignorant bureaucrats. How will anybody measure that 150 miters away for a C2 drone? The pilot position can't be used. Why make rules that can't be supervised? Slow mode and 30 meters..... Much is a farse.
Having an A1/A2/A3 certificate I shake my head.
Violating those rules, there's no punishment set, in Sweden.....
Use the brain and common sense flying safely in the intention of all those rules.
Maximum 120 meters in the free space..... Imagine flying over the forest and there's a stream being crossed. How wide does the stream need for the air traffic rules to force the drone go down towards the water?....
Yes , this is why the new updates where the height is limited by software to 120m this will help keep drones out of commercial airspace
@@TECHDRONEMEDIA Thanks for Your reply! What about the last question, flying over the forest and there's a stream, or a narrow valley, being crossed. How wide does the stream, or valley, need to be for the air traffic rules to force the drone go down towards the water, or ground?....
I received a DJI Avata version one as a gift and I went online and did the A1-A3 and A2 certification and I'm still confused about where I'm allowed to fly this drone and as I live in Germany I really don't want problems with the police.
Only in A3 with a spotter
Soon, we will only be able to fly indoors. And later, only in the bathroom.
Thank you for your excellent video! Happy New Year!
Small note: All FPV drones including the Avata were classified A3 by easa anyways, even before this change (regardless of the weight)
Yes you are right
Makes sense, really...i mean those are basically DESIGNED to crash 😅
@@dorianarbos 😅. I feel like 150m away is a bit excessive though…
@@DigitalicaEG At the speed at which some FPVs fly, 150m is not that much. An Avata in manual mode will cover that distance in less than 6 seconds. And because the pilot is wearing FPV googles , they have 0 situational awareness besides what they see through their goggles.
It probably sucks for FPV users in urban areas, but personally i don't find that restriction excessive at all.
@@dorianarbosyou have no clue whatsoever what you are talking about
GOOD TO HEAR THAT BROTHER THANKS FOR SHARING HAPPY FLYING👍👍👍
Thank you for this Henrik, very useful for us living in the EU. Many thanks for sharing the info & happy new year 2024
Excellent summary, Henrik! Bravo!
Many thanks!
It seems that the Air2s at the end of January 2024 will be retromarked with the C1 label said DJI 🤩
That would be a nice move
Got an Air 2, bought right before S model surfaced..
Still a fantastic drone, why..why is this getting obsolete like this? Makes no sence..
Im going to “get” a C1 sticker as well..
Is it in open category required to ask for flight permit if in a non restricted zone. In Greece it seems you need to ask for flight permit each time you want to fly
I bought a dji mini 2 SE december 18th, what do i need to do? Do i need to register it and fix a number on it? How much does this cost? How long untill the number expires (do i need to repay every year)? What if i dont registee it, what will the maximal fine be? Is there a website where i can find easy info for the mini 2 SE or about the registration?
What you forgot to mention is that above C0, so C1 and higher, remote ID is mandatory.
And that without Cx label legacy drones from 250 gr - 25kg, though they can only fly in A3 categorie, they still don`t require remote ID.
Heeft een DJI spark een remote ID nodig?
I have A1/A3 and only intend to use a C1 drone but for kicks took the A2 training material and most of it was new to me, even after taking the US part 107 training and passing that exam. I really like the 1:1 rule's logic, for example, when able, even though C0-C1 drones don't "require" it. Also the battery info was really good and something worth taking in.
Sub-category A3 addresses operations that are conducted in an area where the remote pilot reasonably expects that no uninvolved people will be endangered within
the range of the unmanned aircraft where it is flown during the mission (not 150 m). In addition, the operation must be conducted at a safe horizontal distance of at least 150 m from residential, commercial, industrial or recreational areas.
Where can I find this exact interpretation?
Good luck to police trying to enforce these stupid new laws.....so many options that they will be a nightmare to enforce. "sorry officer you are wrong, my drone was 149.5m from an uninvolved person".
Jerry
Hi Henrik. i bought month ago and its Combo Plus version with extended battery pack. There is no zero label under my mini 4 pro
Thank you, and a happy new flying year!
While drone regulations across the EU share similarities, individual countries have unique rules. In Finland, there are stricter limitations, with a maximum height of 120 meters in 2023 already for example. Besides that. The law says you need to have a pilot license for drones under 250 gram with a camera. (DJI mini 2, 3 and 4 all need a license) Obtaining permissions from the coast guard, police, or military, and sometimes all three, is crucial. Flying over a police station is strictly prohibited. It's advisable to consult local drone maps, as relying solely on the DJI map proved insufficient in my experience. 😅
If by " you need a Pilot license" you mean registering as an operator with your country's airspace safety agency, that's mandatory across the entire EU, not just Finland.
@dorianarbos In simple words you need to do the drone course to get your pilot license. Also, for drones below 250 gram with a camera. You don't need it for drones below 250 grams without a camera.
Well explained Hendrik. I am all set for 2024. My Mini 3 pro stays in C0 and my Mini 4 Pro is C0. Then my Mavic 3 classic will be C1 so I can fly all over Europe undisturbed for now. Pity is that in Germany you have so many areas where you are not allowed to fly but there is still plenty left. Good New Year wishes from the Netherlands.
Yes - it’s actually amazing the classic is a C1 drone
really clear Henrik thankyou
Good informational video Henrik.
Are private selling w/o a Classmark still allowed?
Yes
Thanks and Happy New Year my friend...Mike...Quebec,Canada...
I recently bought a DJI Mini 4k about 1 week ago and removed the limit from 120M to 500M.
So now I have my drone declassified, even after January 1, 2024.
Do I need a label? Cx or C1?
Will I continue to receive brand updates?
You’ve missed that c0 and legacy drones below 250g can fly over uninvolved people in A1…just the drones under 900g c1 has to avoid flying over them and fly near buildings…
I'm pretty sure that is cover by the A1 explanation, but off course not good enough if missed.
I am glad I changed from the Air 2s to 3 Pro earlier this year and got it with the C2 label from factory :) Its been a bit more "complicated" to request it for my new 3T, but at least both my drones are now fully compliant, and together with my A1/A3 and A2 converted "dronebevis" and STS-03 I am good to go in 2024 :)
Seem you are well covered
DJI has announced that the Air 2s can be recertified to C1 at the end of January 2024 👍
I live in Germany and i already went trough the A1/A3 drone licence. It costed me 20€ and you learn valuable laws and restrictions in regards to fly safe. The exam isn't actually that long and in a few houres your a drone pilot. Most drones fall under the category C0 and C1 (being the under 900g) it is not as bad. Some are pretty obvious rules and after all i think no one should endanger people that aren't part of your program anyway. It avoids collision. It's just hard to then use the drone were it's populated since you basically can't. Nature (that isn't naturvreserves) is best place to fly.
I did it in luxembourg for free 1.5 years ago
Living in the Netherlands where they ask 100euro it was nice to do it for free
@@wippo76 good to hear they offer free exam participation over there. I definitely think it's a benefit to have done the exam.
The Air 2S gets a retrofit C1 label at the end of January 2024. Very good news for Air 2S owners!! 🥳
It is terribly sad that it has come to this. Restrictions, laws, fines, licenses, etc.. One day we will need a license to own a fridge.
I have a DJI Air 3 in Spain, for recreational use only. I have registered as a Drone Pilot and passed the A1/A3 exam. Is it necessary to register my drone also? If so How? The only place I found to register accepted all the details of the drone but after completing the form basically said this registration is only for use in the specialized category with no mention as to where to register for the Open category. I would be grateful to hear if anyone from Spain has managed to register a C1 drone for OPEN use only or if it is in fact necessary.
Im from uk. Ive got my mini 2 in 2021. Ive registered it under UK. How can i register it if I want to fly it abroad?
My comment also keep getting deleted.
One again, Thanks Henrik for the insightful and clear video.
I just want to confirm that if I'm renting a mini 3 pro for my trip in Iceland next year. So do I need to register myself as a pilot and also where should I look for the maps of allowed and restrictive fly zone areas with most recent data.
Thank You....
I love your videos and your lovely country. I spent a lot of time on your lovely coast at the north sea but there are so many restricted areas. In the area of northern Germany we have the same problem. It`s alsmost impossible to find nice, legal to fly, spots. Or am i wrong? Greetings from the area of Schleswig.
Hi Henrik, what do you know / think about the new Remote ID regulations in Europe?
I must be honest and say I have not paired much attention (properly should)
Is there any information for tourists? For example, I’m coming to the Netherlands and Belgium in February with a MiniPro 4. If I understand you correctly, I am classified as an A1 so there really should be a minimal impact. Is there any documentation I can carry and read just in case?
You just need to register as a drone operator in one of the member states then you are good to go
my experience in the Netherlands and belgium is nobody will bother you
i did register myself but they ask every year 15 euro so I did not pay anymore
Thank you for the information, do you know if this applies to the UK?
Very interesting. I was warned by my d'rone-school' a few weeks ago that this was about to happen. I contacted DJI and asked if there will be a "C1" label available for my new bougth AVATA. Their answer was vague. Have you any info/predictions?
I have no info about this, sorry - but it’s difficult with drone already in the marked, an present little value to DJI - but they might surprise
What if uninvolved people enters my flying /landing area ( fly fixed wing also)
Tell them what’s going on and give them a chance to leave, if not they accept they are are part of the operation
I could be wrong but I don’t recall you making mention of insurance requirements. As part of the registration process, at least here in Germany, proof of third party insurance specifically mentioning drone coverage has to be forwarded as part of the registration process.
While that's true of Germany, in other EU countries insurance is advised but not mandatory. At least not in C0 A1/A3.
@@dorianarbos I think you‘ll find that Germany is applying EU wide regulations. For drones weighing less than 250g pilot registration (not drone) is mandatory and in applying for registration it has to be shown that one has insurance. This can be a standard household policy on the proviso that it also covers drones.
@@travellingman9031 This is incorrect. While pilot registration is mandatory across the UE, proof of insurance is not required to be shown during registration in all countries (it is in Germany). Please remember, registration is done through each national air authority, not directly through EASA.
I just had my registaration made where i live (spain) with my national air authority (AESA, not to be confused with EASA) and no proof of insurance was required.
EASA recommends insurance, but it leaves to each national air authority to decide wether they mandate insurance or just recommend it.
Mind you, that means that, although i have an EASA registration from Spain, i would indeed have to show proof of insurance to Germany's national air authority before i could fly there.
Hi thanks a lot for your vids ! I had a very important and specific question: what are the real risks of declassifying my mini 4 pro (bought after 2024) to upgrade the hight limite to 500m ? Will I lose some privileges I had with the C0 ? Since I live close to mountains it’s very important. I searched a long time but couldn’t find anything specific to that.
Thanks again
You are so knowledgeable so I’d like to ask a question that has never been answered to my satisfaction. Can I fly a DJI Mini 4 Pro over Venice as I am working on a personal project and would love to top and tail it with a couple drone shots. Thanks.
No as far as I know this is a No Fly zone, and you have the airport very close and I found this quote online “According to the law of Italy, tourist zones such as San Marco are almost no-fly zones. If you want to fly a drone in these zones, you will have to take special authorization from the office of ENAC”
thank you for your response. That is what I feared.
How about if I assemble fpv drone myself where do I get sticker for it?
You don’t
@@TECHDRONEMEDIA thx
So if flying sub 2024 purchased drone like the mini 3 the rules don’t change? Do you need a registration for that country you fly in or is having a UK flight ID and registration ok to use in the EU. I’ve been asked to fly next to a outdoor ice racing car track in France which is near an airfield. I have the mini 3 😬
Very helpful and informative! Thanks!
I have a Private Pilot license, can i fly drones with this, instead of obtaining a drone pilot license?
thanks for sharing
Takk for en veldig god forklaring, har delt denne på siden min. Ønsker deg et riktig godt nyttår 🙂 ser frem til mange gode videoer i 2024 også 🙂
If this was about safety, they would immediately make the changes. This proves it's about power and control.
So, with the A1/A3 license I will be able to fly Air 2 S in urban areas?
Thank you for the video!
No, unless DJI comes to your rescue with a C1 label by the end of January
@@TECHDRONEMEDIA do you think that could happen? Or DJI will consider it a great opportunity to sell more products...
At 1:05 the card says 01 January 2014....
Very well explained... is these rules same across EU & is it kind of same in the UK? I live in the UK & plan to take drone to EU countries on holidays... Thanks, Ash
While these are EU regulations, individual EU member states can (and do) introduce additional restrictions. you'll need to check with the airspace safety agency of the specific country you're planning to fly in.
Also, keep in mind your CAA registration (if you have one) will not be recognized in the EU. You'll need to apply for an EASA registration.
In one point I‘ve got another interpretation of the EASA regulations but I think they even changed this point. I would pretend sellers are allowed to sell drones without C labels as well in 2024. Let’s make an example: A small photoequippment store in Aarhus (DK) sells drones and took some in stock. Therefore they are with a Mini 3 Pro and wants to sell it in January 2024. In my understanding this is a legacy drone, brought on the market before 2024. Therfore thers no need of a C label since the rules for legacy drones sub 250g tells to be allowed to fly in Open A1 also without the classification. The time will solve this problem: In five years there’s hardy no drone without a C label because every new launched drone is legally bound to wear a classification sticker and be within those requirements.
The same with buying a drone from the secondhand market. Without a C classification they still are legacy drones under the rules of those.
DJI published very good news for drone owners flying with a Air 2S. They woke up big hopes to offer a post-certification for this model. It’s still a very decent drone and many didn’t believed the post-certification will be offered.
For mini drones its not such a big issue, I guess and those in stock is already in the marked (even if not sold yet) - but it’s good news about Air 2S - feel free to forward your source as this might be worth a video
@@TECHDRONEMEDIA Henrik, dji published this on their Facebook page yesterday. It's an overview of their models and which airspace they can occupy from Jan 1st. In the A1 airspace, the Air 2S is depicted, with the text "End of January".
Interesting, thanks 🙏
I still have the original mavic 3 which is under 900g and was the first drone to obtain the C classification. But as i live in England i was never able to get mine classified C1. Is there any way i can get this done now the rules have been finalised or will i be forced to fly in A3
I have my easa license and A2Cofc
Thank you
It’s only DJI that can grant you this update, but try their support and tell them you are planing a trip to EU (if you do :-)
@@TECHDRONEMEDIA cheers buddy i will give it a go 😀😀
Good news!
Hi Henrik,
Do you know anything about where to get help for a DJI Mavic 2 PRO drone and what someone like "us" is doing now? I'm really confused now.
You say in another video that after January 1, 2024, all drones in the open category must be equipped with a UAS identification system.
I can't find UAS Remote Identification anywhere in the controller and I also can't find anything on the web about what's up and down.
Do you have any ideas or could you outline them, you seem to be familiar with the rules?
Thanks in advance for your help
I try to find out
Rules are rules and made for our safety.
I bought a Mini 3 Pro in March 2023 and I registered myself as a drone operator and I also registered the drone, I have a sticker on a drone with the registration number.
If I understood correctly, I don't have to do any additional steps in order to comply with the rules?
No, happy flying :-)

Yes you likely need a more powerful one or replace the cable to carry more current

believe some user donnot want it known
Well explained and I can't be thankful enough I don't live in the EU.
Could be worse… if you’re in the U.S., UK or austrailia you also have additional remote ID requirements
Actually in Australia you don't unless you are flying a drone for commercial purposes, for a private drone user there's no need to register with any level of government.@@GarethDix
@@GarethDixthe id system in the UK is called an operator ID which is simply to show the drone is registered in the case of an accident where the pilot cannot be found.
@@UHDGamers-re2xj 😂 riiiiiiight
That all these regulations are formulated to make it seem at first glance that they care about our safety... but in essence they are restrictions that they want to impose on people in all areas, such as soon to be carbon footprint, artificial meat and insect food, 15 minute cities etc, that's the only point of it all, because incidents where small drones have endangered other people's lives are statistically negligible.
Agree, the new regulations are nothing to do with safety.
Jerry
Without a class identification label but only if they are placed on the market before December 31st, 2023
Where did you get this information?
I declassified my drone before December 31st, but when I was checking Cyprus regs and rules they said:
Class Identification Label

EASA requires that all drones operating in the European Union to be marked with a Class Identification Label from January 1st, 2024. It is very important to note that all drones that have been placed in the market after 01/01/2024 and DO NOT bear a Class Identification Label, are NOT allowed to be operated in the Open Category but only in the Specific Category, following an application for an Operational Authorisation.
The Class Identification Label is a standardised label that categorises drones based on their weight, capability, and potential risk. The regulation defines seven classes C0-C6, each class having a unique label (shown above) that must be displayed on the drone.
Thank you in advance for reply!
Starting from 1 January 2024, operations in the open category must be conducted with a drone:
bearing a C0 to C4 class identification label, or;
being privately built, or;
even without class identification label, but only if placed on the market before 31 December 2023. www.easa.europa.eu/en/domains/civil-drones-rpas/open-category-civil-drones
@@TECHDRONEMEDIA thank you sir. I also find it little bit later.
First you think how much rules and regs and they changing sometimes. But then you watch video where one guy near airport and film airplanes close you start realise that not all drone pilots responsible and use their uavs reasonably
Just wish the UK CAA/DofT would get their finger out their arse, and stop these mind numbing consultation periods, and create the bloody rules.
I get why it’s happening, but they should have just copied the EASA full stop! 😡
This whole thing is ridiculous....where is the evidence for this great hobby to be a danger to anyone? Nobody has been killed by a model plane or drone, or even badly injured....if anyone out there knows better and can furnish the evidence, then let us all know.
Do you know what? It is all about money, moolah, bucks, yen, whatever you want to call it. It is time we all grew a pair and stand together to call out the regulators, shame on them all for ruining a fantastic hobby.
Yes, true but it needs to be regulated somehow to to protect commercial air traffic and privacy to some extent
Those entities are a different thing entirely from the normal hobbyist who only wants to have some fun with a model plane or quadcopter.....they shouldn't bag the 2 things together, completely different aspects of flying.@@TECHDRONEMEDIA
Your country in price air 2s drone
These rules got me out of the hobby. Basically you need the latest and greatest drone to fly in a normal way

My comment also keep getting deleted.
One again, Thanks Henrik for the insightful and clear video.
I just want to confirm that if I'm renting a mini 3 pro for my trip in Iceland next year. So do I need to register myself as a pilot and also where should I look for the maps of allowed and restrictive fly zone areas with most recent data.
Thank You....
Yes, you need to register as a drone operator. You need to do it once, at any of the memember states of EASA.
For maps, I don't know as each country has different sources.
The dji app will show you most no fly zones in Iceland, however there are certain tourist spots that do not show up as restricted on the app but they are very well sign posted in all places that flying is prohibited. Special licences for some prohibited areas can be purchased through the Icelandic civil aviation authority ie the Icelandic Highlands and vatnajökull national park
