VLOG S01E10: WEIRD AUSTRALIAN DRONE LAWS |

[@JordanPritchard]

Just realised I cut the first bit of my hello off!! Sorry about that 😂😂

[@Rubishaa]

no worries about hello, we understand and also why drone have so many rules ugh!

[@JordanPritchard]

It’s so annoying!!

[@FieldofVisions]

[@JordanPritchard]

I gained my professional licence almost 2 years ago but it lapsed due to Covid and the lack of commercial work - well worth studying and understanding all the rules and regs in your own county to avoid any unintended or accidental damage or accidents .

[@JordanPritchard]

That’s very true Andrew it’s good to keep on top of the rules and changes since they are changing so fast 😀

[@agostinobrienza9501]

[@JordanPritchard]

Thanks 😀😀

What gets me in Australia is that looking at Airmap, there are special use zones around air force bases that extend for hundreds of kilometres. Wanna fly a drone in Boggabilla, NSW? (A place in the middle of nowhere). Well, their are local airstrips to watch out for, and oh the special use zone for RAAF Base Amberley, near Ipswitch, Qld, 300km away.

[@JordanPritchard]

It’s crazy isn’t it

[@ericflynn4524]

I still need to get my commercial license, but I've been having a blast flying mine and getting some time in. I definitely understand some of the restrictions, but it does get to be a bit much at times.

[@JordanPritchard]

They are so much fun and same but a lot of places around me have like no people living there

[@gregtrainor1577]

Geez, it's bad for drone pilots, but not that bad! You can generally fly in those areas with the light-orange shading. They typically represent proximity to uncontrolled landing fields or helicopter pads. If you read the description on the app (bottom of the screen), it'll tell you what you need to be aware of. e.g. "Safely land if there are aircraft flying in the area"

[@paulcookphotography]

Very informative video Jeremy! I've been thinking of buying a drone lately as I think it would add a different element to my vlogs, especially here in flat Florida. But not sure it is worth it with all of the restrictions. Doesn't look like you have too many options there in the Melbourne area. Do the restrictions relax a bit as you travel outside of the big city? Thanks for the video mate, really appreciate hearing about how drone laws work over there. Have a great weekend, stay safe!

[@JordanPritchard]

Unfortunately I am in the rural area I just risk it I know there is nothing around so I just go for it 😀😀

[@WBJAdventures]

New friends here for support

[@JordanPritchard]

Thanks for the support

[@steveshortt90]

Hey mate my understanding of those areas are that your less than 249g drone can be flown in the "!" Zone as you're rec. Please correct me if I'm wrong as my areas look exactly like that too.

[@JordanPritchard]

I believe light weight drones can be flown in those zones :)

[@NaomisAdventures]

Interesting

[@JordanPritchard]

😀

[@AidanandAssociates]

Farought that's crazy, I didnt even realise that lol

[@JordanPritchard]

Me either it sucks 😂😂

[@PaulFaracePhotography]

Yeah man, its pretty restricted here too. The no fly maps are depressing lol. I might get a mini 2, currently use a mav pro 1.

[@JordanPritchard]

Yeah the minis look awesome!! I have a mavic air 1

[@DroneViewPoland]

inn Europe we also will have lot of changes in next year 😉👍for you

[@JordanPritchard]

It’s hard to keep up some times

[@melbournesights]

I really want to get a drone but I worry so much about the laws 😂

[@JordanPritchard]

Same here they are concerning!! I just go for the old approach of oh I wasn’t sure but I don’t often see people when I fly drones 😀

[@opticalpower]

[@JordanPritchard]

No worries mate thanks for watching 😀

[@tonymckeage1028]

Great Vlog, Thanks Jordan, you have confirmed my thinking about Drones, the areas in NZ where drones are banned or require permission are huge. As such I haven't bought one yet and i would prefer to invest in other stuff. Thanks Again

[@JordanPritchard]

Are they?? I never even realised there is a lot of banned areas in NZ

[@greghilton7797]

CASA removed the Can I fly There app more than 18 months ago. So its no longer relevant.

[@toonoobstudios3266]

Very interesting video and its clear that you have put in a lot of effort. Let us know if you are interested in some feedback. An overall Good job , keep them coming

[@JordanPritchard]

Thank you, I will
