Transport Canada published new rules for flying drones in Canada on January 9, 2019. [1] The rules no longer treat recreational and commercial drone pilots differently but instead categorize operators as basic or advanced with different rules for each. [2] The rules apply to drones between 250 g (0.55 pounds) and 25 kg (55 pounds).
Mandatory online training. The pilot has to practice with a drone under A3 rules. The pilot must be able to deal with various scenarios, e.g. people entering the flight area, manual take-offs and landings, estimating altitudes and distances using external reference values, and returning the drone to the starting point under difficult situations ...
Laws on drone use. For starters, if you own a drone weighing more than 0.55 pounds, you are required to register it with the Federal Aviation Authority. It costs $5 to register a drone, which is ...
