Furthermore, the rules for drone pilots have become even stricter with the new EU drone regulation. But what do I really have to pay attention to as a drone pilot, and what penalties can I expect if I violate them? In our new blog series, we list the six &#8220;worst&#8221; violations and summarize at the end what every drone pilot should consider before taking off.<\/p>\n<p>First, we will talk about:<\/p>\n<\/div><ul style=\"--awb-line-height:27.2px;--awb-icon-width:27.2px;--awb-icon-height:27.2px;--awb-icon-margin:11.2px;--awb-content-margin:38.4px;\" class=\"fusion-checklist fusion-checklist-1 fusion-checklist-default type-icons\"><li class=\"fusion-li-item\" style=\"\"><span class=\"icon-wrapper circle-no\"><i class=\"fusion-li-icon fa-arrow-right fas\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/span><div class=\"fusion-li-item-content\">\n<p><strong><a href=\"#Fliegen ohne F\u00fchrerschein\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">Flying without Certificate<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/li><li class=\"fusion-li-item\" style=\"\"><span class=\"icon-wrapper circle-no\"><i class=\"fusion-li-icon fa-arrow-right fas\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/span><div class=\"fusion-li-item-content\">\n<p><strong><a href=\"#Fliegen ohne Genehmigung\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">Flying without Permission<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/li><\/ul><div class=\"fusion-separator fusion-full-width-sep\" style=\"align-self: center;margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;margin-top:40px;width:100%;\"><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-2\"><p>Part 2 is more about the aircraft vehicle and what consequences flying without insurance and without identification can have. In Part 3, we will revisit the problems described above in connection with the incident at Frankfurt Airport and discuss flying in no-fly zones.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Fines partly drastic<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Anyone who does not comply with the regulation can expect a fine of up to \u20ac50,000. However, it is not (yet) possible to say how high the fine will actually be for which violation. There are neither tables nor a catalog of fines. But this could be introduced with the German draft law to adapt to the EU drone regulation. So far, drone pilots can only orient themselves through the media on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.focus.de\/regional\/muenchen\/muenchen-tollwood-polizeieinsatz-wegen-illegalen-drohnen-flugs_id_9230958.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">precedent cases<\/a> from previous years. In the worst cases, criminal proceedings are initiated and imprisonment may be imposed. Likewise, points in Flensburg and the revocation of the driver&#8217;s license can be the consequences.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-3\"><p>If you are not yet familiar with the new EU Drone Regulation and do not know, for example, what the three operating categories are all about, we recommend that you read our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flynex.io\/white-paper\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">White Paper on the EU Drone Regulation 2021<\/a> in advance.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-4\"><h3><strong>Legal Fundamentals<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Flying unmanned aerial vehicles in Germany are subject to the German Air Traffic Act (LuftVG) and the German Air Traffic Regulations (LuftVO). In the case of criminal offenses such as dangerous interference with air traffic or violations of privacy, the German Criminal Code (StGB) also comes into play. The LuftVG, for example, regulates the question of liability. The LuftVO, in turn, specifies where flying is prohibited, for example.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-1 fusion_builder_column_1_1 1_1 fusion-flex-column fusion-column-inner-bg-wrapper fusion-column-liftup-border\" style=\"--awb-padding-top:20px;--awb-padding-right:20px;--awb-padding-bottom:20px;--awb-padding-left:20px;--awb-inner-bg-color:#d9d9d9;--awb-inner-bg-color-hover:#d9d9d9;--awb-inner-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:100%;--awb-margin-top-large:0px;--awb-spacing-right-large:1.92%;--awb-margin-bottom-large:19px;--awb-spacing-left-large:1.92%;--awb-width-medium:100%;--awb-order-medium:0;--awb-spacing-right-medium:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-medium:1.92%;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-order-small:0;--awb-spacing-right-small:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-small:1.92%;\"><span class=\"fusion-column-inner-bg hover-type-liftup\"><span class=\"fusion-column-anchor\"><span class=\"fusion-column-inner-bg-image\"><\/span><\/span><\/span><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-flex-justify-content-center fusion-content-layout-column\"><ul style=\"--awb-line-height:27.2px;--awb-icon-width:27.2px;--awb-icon-height:27.2px;--awb-icon-margin:11.2px;--awb-content-margin:38.4px;\" class=\"fusion-checklist fusion-checklist-2 fusion-checklist-default type-icons\"><li class=\"fusion-li-item\" style=\"\"><span class=\"icon-wrapper circle-no\"><i class=\"fusion-li-icon fa-exclamation fas\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/span><div class=\"fusion-li-item-content\">\n<p>Which rules apply depends primarily on the (take-off) weight of the drone (UAV-class) and the intended use (private or commercial).<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li><li class=\"fusion-li-item\" style=\"\"><span class=\"icon-wrapper circle-no\"><i class=\"fusion-li-icon fa-exclamation fas\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/span><div class=\"fusion-li-item-content\">\n<p>The amount of the fine additionally depends on the federal state.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-2 fusion_builder_column_1_1 1_1 fusion-flex-column\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:100%;--awb-margin-top-large:0px;--awb-spacing-right-large:1.92%;--awb-margin-bottom-large:19px;--awb-spacing-left-large:1.92%;--awb-width-medium:100%;--awb-order-medium:0;--awb-spacing-right-medium:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-medium:1.92%;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-order-small:0;--awb-spacing-right-small:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-small:1.92%;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-flex-start fusion-content-layout-column\"><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-5\"><h3 id=\"Fliegen ohne F\u00fchrerschein\"><strong>Flying without Certificate<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The certificate for flying a drone is one of the most important requirements to consider.
