“Today, the Federal Aviation Administration released a report on the conclusions reached by the Micro Unmanned Aircraft Systems Committee Aviation Rulemaking Committee — a coalition of 27 companies and associations tasked with determining the safety of flying very small UAS over people.
The committee evaluated the safety requirements and broke operations up into four categories, with unique flying rules for each.
Under the first category, any UAS that weighs less than 250 grams, including payload, should pose so little risk that there should be no operational restrictions. They recommended that companies selling products that fit this description should either label them as safe and file for a safe status with the FAA.”
