Night Flying Rules and Requirements. Before you take off into the night sky with your DJI Mini 3 Pro, it’s essential to know the rules. In the United States, it’s a must for all drone enthusiasts, both recreational and commercial pilots, to complete a knowledge test or training.
Night flight just seems more dangerous. The FAA probably will look at the acceptable night time flight risk, and orientation at night is surely a factor. On the other hand a drone at night with the correct strobes is generally more visible than a drone in daylight hours to the drone operator and manned aircraft pilots.
Proximity to Airports in Texas. As a general rule of thumb, and in accordance with the law from the FAA, you may not fly within a 5-mile radius of any airport. In 2012 the FAA enacted the Modernization and Reauthorization Act which requires hobbyist drone operators, meaning residential, to contact air traffic control and/or airport management
