CNY Drones Event Participation Requirements
For indoor flying at any CNY Drones event, we require that you are either affiliated with U.S. Drone Soccer through purchase or participation or have a current year CNY Drones Consent & Release Form on file AND proof of AMA Membership. Event Participation Requirements apply to participants & volunteers working with any flying equipment at the event – regardless of ownership.
Academy of Model Aeronautics Membership
County & State event health & safety guidelines as well as venue rules are in place at our events.
We appreciate your cooperation as we take every step to create a safe flying environment.
Battery Safety
One of the biggest issues we find with anyone starting to use drone technology and/or involved in drone soccer is a lack of regard for battery safety.
We cringe every time we see a camp or workshop offered in our community where the students go home with a drone. We wonder where those batteries end up? On the lawn, in a tree, in the basement or garage, in a toybox or closet?
We often hear about educated individuals who just plug in batteries to chargers & assume that everything will be fine without reading any instructions.
CNY Drones offers a Battery Safety training module and advice for FREE to educators working with us. We also connect those wishing to run battery charging stations at U.S. Drone Soccer events with official certification through the U.S. Drone Soccer Association.
We are just a phone call away. Call us before you need us.
