Chapter 1: Privacy and Other Consideration

No person may operate an sUAS in a careless or reckless manner that would endanger another
person’s life or property. Part 107 also prohibits allowing an object to be dropped from an sUAS
in a way that causes undue hazard to persons or property. Examples of hazardous operation
include, but are not limited to:
✓ Operations that interfere with manned aircraft operations
✓ Operating an sUAS over persons not directly participating in the operation.
✓ Loading the sUAS beyond its capabilities to the point of losing control.

You may operate an sUAS to transport another person’s property (cargo) for compensation or hire
provided you comply with the additional requirements described below:

✓ The total weight of the sUAS (including the cargo) must remain below 55 pounds.
✓ The sUAS operation must be within the boundaries of a State (intrastate).
✓ No items may be dropped from the small unmanned aircraft in a manner that creates undue
hazard to person or property.
✓ You may not operate the sUAS form a moving land vehicle or waterborne vessel.
✓ Carriage of hazardous materials is not permitted.

As with other operations in Part 107, sUAS operations involving the transport of property must be
conducted within VLOS of the remote pilot. While the VLOS limitation can be waived for some
operations under the rule, it cannot be waived for transportation of property. Additionally, Part
107 does not allow the operation of an sUAS from a moving vehicle or aircraft if the small UA is
being used to transport properly for compensation or hire. This limitation cannot be waived ,
Additionally, the remote pilot must know the sUAS location in order to determine the attitude,
altitude, and direction; to yield the right-of-way to other aircraft, and to maintain the ability to see
and avoid other aircraft.

Other laws, such as State and local privacy laws, may apply to sUAS operations. The remote
PIC’s responsible for reviewing and complying with such laws prior to operation.

In additional, remote PICs are encouraged to review the Department of Commerce National
Telecommunication and information Administration (NTA) best practices, which address privacy
transparency and accountability issues related to private and commercial use of sUAS.
