The Federal Aviation Administration(FAA) has been challenged to make rules and regulations for consumer usage of Unmanned Vehicles. An outline was presented and here are what some of the regulations may be:
* Possible perquisites for being a drone pilot
* Must be within line of site at all times
* Can not fly faster than 100mph or higher than 500 feet.
* No flying over people
If the regulation to require line of site at all time becomes a reality, you can say good buy to your hopes of Amazon delivery drones in the near future. It is hard to say how this will impact the commercial usage of drones in the future, or what will change in time. Currently they still have 2 years to make modifications and find a more permanent solution.
As for consumers, the rules and regulations seem to be targeted to make it a more regulated flying area, and keep everyone safe while cutting the risks.
