PSD Drone Policy
-
The Palmdale School District board has approved an official Drone Policy that is in accordance with FAA rules.
A couple of crucial points to follow before a drone is flown at your site are:
-
Your drone has to be labeled appropriately. If your site has a drone, let Tech Services know, and I will send you a label. You can follow this link, which will show you how to label it.
-
The person/people who will be flying the drone need to sign and return the paper signature page. Once it is signed, please return it to Tech Services.
-
Before you fly, you need to download the B4UFly app (Android & IOS). This app will allow you to check who you must contact to gain clearance before you fly.
-
When flying, you need to stay below 400 ft., and the drone can’t weigh more than 55 lbs.
-
You can’t fly anywhere considered private, and any collisions or crashes must be reported to your site admin immediately.
