@@ErrorAcquired Not just Police but Government. In Canada you can't fly a drone over any public lands, Near anyone or within a kilometer of ANY man made construction of any kind. Which means you can be charged for flying within a kilometer of a single fence post in the middle of no where if someone complains or even if they just say a complaint was made through a tip line. Government also allow people to post their land as no drones so you can't fly over it. You can very literally own a quarter section of land and they can charge you for going to the geographical center of that property taking off Hovering and landing if any neighbor complains as a kilometer is a bit over the 1/2 mile. The only way to be entirely safe from Government laws on where you can legally fly laws you must own 4 sections of land in a square together where you can fly below 300ft in line of sight circles. And even with all of that and required licenses and registration. If a plane or Helicopter break the law and fly into your allowed air space hitting you. Well, that's your fault also. 100% liability is on you. We used to be a free country. No more! And the US is right on our heels into authoritarian rule.

@@meestameestaaaaaa Depends. A lot of people use the term "drone" to mean a quad-copter, like the one the reporter showed, and only that. There can also be fixed-wing drones, which can be faster and have greater endurance that the copter type drones. If that is what they were chasing, then the greater range and high-altitude performance become a lot more reasonable. Most helicopter operations are at altitudes of 10,000 feet or less, so helicopters don't usually carry oxygen equipment. This drone is reported as flying over a 14,000 foot high mountain, which is the height at which the FAA requires pilots to use supplemental oxygen. Oxygen is also required if flying above 12,500 feet for 30 minutes or more.

In fact, anyone with internet access, a debit or credit card, and about $1500 can buy not only the drone, but the entire setup (all batteries, cameras, transmitters, receivers, antennae, and even an auto-tracking antenna system that tracks the drone for you and automatically points the antenna at it!)

Very interesting. I commute from Casa Grande to Chandler and one morning about 3 months ago I noticed a drone flying parallel to the freeway, about 100 yards away from me. It kept pace with me @ 75mph and i observed it for at least 6 miles until it veered diagonally toward the mountains and out of sight. This one had just one small red light.

A average tech nerd can pull it off. You can order all the parts on the internet. Just need someone with some programming skills to make the software. But it should not be that difficult.

I witnessed it this evening at about 7 pm or so. I reported it to the Tucson police department, the national ufo reporting center and the University of Arizona observation department. It's a continuous blueish green light that blinks steady on and off and this is not a civilian drone. It did blink red once before taking off. It hovered stationary for 20 minutes over south east Tucson. It was at altitude of about 500 to 1,500 feet off the ground. It hung below the cloud ceiling. It looks like a star when you first see it. After 20 minutes it took off heading north at about 100 mph+. It then took a sharp 45 degree turn and made a course change heading east, again at over 100 mph. My first impression was that this thing was not civilian and that it was some kind of secret surveillance drone. Felt eerie to me.

If it was flying over 1,000 feet in the air, it was violating the FAA laws for operating a UAS. Additionally, they said it came close to colliding with a helicopter, which is also against FAA regulations (which is fairly obvious). And if that wasn't enough, operating a drone in a way that interferes with a heliport is against the law (although, I do not know if he was actually interfering with the heliport and not just a helicopter in flight). Whoever was flying the drone could possibly ruin the hobby for other drone pilots, because this case could be used as an example of why the US needs greater drone restrictions.

So to summarize: helicopter pilots couldn't and never saw what they were chasing (and they could somehow estimate its relative speed versus theirs).. I'm really shocked they never found it. Sometimes the most logical answer is the correct one. Maybe a bird flew by, spent hours searching for something, and then have to justify the taxpayer money they wasted trying to find something that may have never existed in the first place. I haven't read the report so maybe this is just a really bad description by this news station of what happened.

I told the cops in Saint George utah about a similar experience with a drone that was outside my place. He laughed and said that what I saw was not possible. I asked if it was theirs and he scoffed. I could see it because it was below the clouds and had a light under it. I stood staring, watching and so I waved at it. Next thing I see is it goes straight up above the clouds like someone had pulled it up by a string. It just kept hovering. My neighbor has what looks like it might be a drone beacon on her roof. We have been trying to get down but it has been moved from a reachable location to the top of the roof peak. The last people out here that had equipment to do that was the city of Saint George. So you tell me. WTF?

If a building is 1000ft in the air, you are allowed to go 1400. If a tower is 800ft in the air, you can go an additional 400ft over it. That's how the law reads.
