For detailed guidance on drone use, visit the Nottinghamshire Police website. They provide helpful links about where drones can fly and the rules around their use.
✅ Key points to remember:
- Rules vary depending on the weight of the drone.
- Drones are legally allowed to fly over people and residential areas, but there are strict distance requirements.
They must NOT:
🚫Fly closer than 50m horizontally to people (unless they’re directly involved in what the operator is doing).
🚫Fly closer than 50m horizontally to individual residential buildings.
If you suspect someone is breaking the law, you can report it online via the Nottinghamshire Police website.
