Before you launch or land a drone in a park, check if you need permission from Council.
You can launch and land your aircraft in a designated area without permission if:
- your aircraft is electric

- you fly it after 7am on weekdays, and after 9am on weekends and public holidays
- you don’t cause a nuisance, endanger others or damage the park
- the aircraft weighs no more than one kilogram for fixed-wing models, and no more than 2 kilograms for drones or other non-fixed wing aircrafts.
