Regulations on the Aviation Law from 200 grams or more
When purchasing a drone, the first thing to check is "weight".That's because 200 grams or more drones are subject to aviation law.
Aviation law is restricted in a place to fly over 200 grams.In addition, in the future, the Japanese government has decided to obligate the drone aircraft information from 2021 for a safe system design for implementing drones in logistics and the like in the future.
However, both airlines and drone registration obligations are not eligible for drones under 200 grams.Against this background, DJI announced a 199 gram aerial aerial drone Mavic mini in Japan.
Can Mavic mini fly anywhere?
So, if the 199 gram MAVIC mini, which is less than 200 grams, is not covered by the aviation law, can you fly freely anywhere?
The answer is NO.There are regulations on drones under 200 grams.
Imperial facilities in countries such as the Imperial Palace, Supreme Court, and Parliament Hall cannot fly with a small drone.
It is also prohibited to fly around the airport, an airspace of 150m or more from the surface and the surface of the water, and at the 2020 Tokyo Olympic and Paralympic Games.
If you fly a drone in the above environment, it may be punished as a violation of regulations, even for an aircraft of less than 200 grams.In fact, in 2019, foreign tourists were caught by a sin of flying toy drones around important facilities in the country.
It is also forbidden to fly drones that have not received the "Technical Standards Configuring Certificate (Technical Mark)".
Internet shops such as Amazon usually sell imported drones without skill marks.If you want to fly a drone without a technical mark, you must get a wireless station opening license.
It is necessary to check if the drone you fly has a skill mark.
If you shoot information that you can identify from the sky, you may fall under the infringement of privacy, portrait rights, and the Personal Information Protection Law in unexpected places.
In addition, it is necessary to pay attention to the river law, the road traffic law, and the Cultural Property Protection Law, flying at airports and sea, flying on public roads, and flying in river areas.
For example, in Tokyo, drone flights in parks and gardens managed by Tokyo have been completely banned since 2015.
Many people think that there is a large space and the park is good as a place to fly a drone.However, all parks in Tokyo are all NG!Drones less than 200g are also in the regulation range.
In this way, the drones are regulated by the local government's ordinance, so check the ordinance of the place to fly before flying the drone.
The place where you can fly a drone in Tokyo is limited
199 grams Mavic mini is mostly out of the air law, but there are few places to fly in Tokyo.
* In order to be positioned as a "model airplane" of the Aviation Law, the "rules for flight of unmanned aircraft (200g or more)" are not applied, and 1) around the airport and 2) the permission of the Minister of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism for a certain level or higher.Only the provisions that require (Article 99-2) are applied.
The only way to fly a Mavic mini in Tokyo is to fly in an indoor drone facility, give the owner permission and fly it in private land.The riverbed is also a land of someone, so if you fly, get permission to the owner before flying.
There is a flight rule that is applied to small drones less than 200 grams, and in fact it may not be surprisingly known.Follow the flight rules and enjoy drone flights safely and securely so that you do not violate regulations in unexpected places.
Editing postscript
