Drone Rules in Germany (If You Were Curious)

 Unless you have a permit...drones cannot not fly above 120 meters (393 feet).  In a urbanized or controlled area, max altitude is 50 meters (164 feet).

Line-of-sight control is mandatory. 

If you have a drone over 11 pounds....it can't be flown at night....without permit.

Drones over 5 kilograms (11 pounds) may not be flown at night without a permit.

Insurance? Mandated.

Near a airport?  Forget about it.  You have to stay a minimum of 1 km away.

Flying around public places, industrial complexes, jails, or traffic routes?  No....banned.  Train stations? Nope....banned there too.  Nature areas?  Nope...banned there.

So these reports of drones today?  Whoever is behind it....has broken several laws....and will end up in jail.
