Safe & Smart Flying

Where Can You Use the AeroKontiki Drone?
Operators must comply with the aviation laws of the country they’re in. In New Zealand, check AirShare, a resource specifically for UAV users, offering maps of controlled airspace near airports.

General Guidelines for Flying:

  • Fly only in uncontrolled airspace below 400 feet.

  • Operate during daylight hours and within your visual line of sight.

  • Avoid manned aircraft, people, and private property.

  • Stay outside restricted airspace and at least 4 km from any airport or aerodrome.

  • Always launch from a beach or open area, directly out to sea.

  • To fly in controlled airspace, register with AirShare to obtain permission.

  • Use AirShare maps to explore permitted coastal fishing spots.
