I wrote to PA game commission after the initial sting operation. I am hopeful that thermal drones will be allowed in PA. As someone with severe red/green color blindness blood tracking is nearly impossible for me. This limits my hunting opportunities to only when I know I will be able to have a family member or friend available to help me track if needed. The ability to use a thermal drone would be a huge game changer for me.

The PA Game commission likes to make their own rules. While there are many examples of this, one that comes to mind regarding drones is printed in the game laws book given to hunters when purchasing a hunting license. It states in the handbook that one can not take off, land, operate or fly over Pa Game Lands. This is absolutely false and the game commission was told in 2016 by the PA Legislature that they needed to change their ruling before making it into law and couldn’t say “fly over”. They don’t own the airspace and therefore cannot regulate flying over, only the FAA can regulate that. But yet they still print it that way every year in their handbook to hunters.

I the deer is alive the only information that the pilot can relay to the hunter or anyone who is hunting the property is the deer is alive and if they believe the deer will die or live and they could suggest the hunter wait a certain amount of time before attempting to recover deer and that is it no other information could be given from the pilot.

whether you knowit or not, most DNR officers are not on the same page as hunters, quite a few DNR employees are left leaning liberals and dont like hunting at all. so is the case here in Indiana. dont get me wrong, there are some really good wardens here but they will fight this tooth and nail to keep drones out of service. I want to do this here in Indiana but it dont look good

I can see 100 problems with drones. The one that always stands out to me in videos is a law that gets broken nonstop by you operators. Thats a rule that applies in states like Ohio where "spotlighting" is illegal. You guys light up deer from the sky all the time weather they are dead or alive. I cant legally spotlight deer here but for some reason you guys think you can. Im surprised lots of tickets havent been written just from videos alone.

As far as spotlighting goes if you try finding your deer at night if you use a flashlight, large or small could you get called spotlighting. If you shine your light on a live deer that's not the one you shot, is that spotlighting. The drone light is used to verify and id a dead deer or not.

@@terrytesterman1689 Interesting points. I wonder if the law distinguishes between using a light for navigation, versus using it to actively locate animals. Either way, who among us hasn't used a flashlight to blood-trail a deer at night? Oftentimes it would be unethical to NOT search at night for risk of spoilage or loss to scavengers (ie coyotes). I don't know any other way than to use artificial light of some sort.

The Pa Game commission never seems to work in the hunters best interest. We have been fighting for Sunday hunting for over 30 years. They are resistant to change and are run by a bunch of FUDD’s. Hopefully we can get the drone issue resolved since it makes no sense the way the law is being interpreted against drone pilots. What was done to the pilot who had his drone confiscated was for no other reason then to flex muscle and intimidate; that’s how they work by making an example of him. I will try to make it to the January 26th PGC meeting and maybe I will see you there. As far as the LA drone pilot, his flying while watching the dog tracker work and when the animal was shot could be a problem since that could be interpreted as actual hunting and assisting in the kill
