Thinking of Buying or Flying a Drone In Spain? - Please Read before you do
Very helpful member
It has been a while since I offered some feedback to other posts on this topic but I am doing more research as I am nearer purchasing a drone, or so I thought!
Since the last post on this topic I was involved in (2019) the rules have changed and more restrictions have been brought in as drones have become more affordable and in many cases become more of a nuisance.
I have found an excellent YouTube Channel which only has a couple of informational videos on there at the moment which give some great advice about flying drones legally in Spain (of course there are always rule breakers, which I am not condoning)
For those wishing to do things right this is the YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FbLaMewOPwQ (not my work so I do not claim credit!)More importantly, here is the link to the official government website that provides very clear indication of where you can legally fly drones in Spain, choose the 'recreativo' option if you are a hobbyist - https://drones.enaire.es/
My current conclusion is that I am scuppered and will not be able to fly a drone in the area of my home, which is nestled in a valley between two mountain ranges, but those are the rules! I have emailed AESA to ask for further guidance.
Hope it Helps
