Hello from Pittsburgh

[PittsburghCat]

Hello
So I'm newish to drones. I've had a few basic toy drones. My therapist suggested trying out a more serious drone so I got an AE86. I figured needing to be registered was the more serious bit. The one obstacle that I've got is living really close to the approach for Pittsburgh international. I'm pretty comfortable with RCs, used to race off road electric.

You may need a telecommunication device for your drone. I grew north of the Burgh. The FAA requires an operator number . You can get that by getting your amateur pilots license, if you don’t have one. Don’t worry, it’s not that difficult to get one.

I know I am near the air port and have to apply to use the air space.


If you are not familiar with the FAA, here is the link to the Drone Zone. Take Care, greg
