- In the open category, remain within 120 m of the nearest point on the ground and maintain direct visual contact. In the mountains, the limit is not simply measured from take-off.
- Check the registration, training, insurance and distances from people required for your aircraft. Flying over assemblies of people is prohibited in the open category.
- Respect wildlife-related bans and temporary restrictions. Give way to manned aircraft and land if an emergency response takes place nearby.
- Obtain any permission needed to use the take-off ground. Respect residents, privacy and animals; check wind, weather and battery endurance before leaving.
