That means some of the first movers in the industry are scaling at eye-popping rates, as embodied by Raleigh drone startup PrecisionHawk, which today announced its fifth acquisition in one year.

The Federal Aviation Administration Reauthorization Act of 2018 recently signed into law is being hailed a significant step forward by those in the unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) industry and by aviation law experts. But to those who have criticized the slow pace of lawmakers and regulators in implementing a clear path forward for the UAS industry, the legislation not only provides five years of funding for the FAA's priorities, but also promises more regulatory guidance.

Drone trends to watch in 2018: Big data, flying taxis, and home security
Venturebeat.com
| 01/13/2018
Drones are going to see significant new capabilities in 2018. The use of multiple high-functioning cameras as well as upgraded Global Navigation Satellite System will enhance navigational acumen far beyond that of today's drone models. This, combined with ultra-fast charging and longer-lasting batteries, means the drones of 2018 will have far greater range and performance flexibility. Expect to see more and more sectors incorporating drones into their operations this year as a result.

Few would have imagined the transformation of unmanned aerial vehicles, commonly known as drones, from toys for adults to revolutionary machines for businesses, the military, cinema, maintenance groups, fire-fighters, health services, farming and so much more. But, as competition in the marketplace drives down prices, how exactly will drones revisit traditional business models? One thing is for sure: thanks to them, companies not only can design innovative value propositions, but also radically modify the way they operate.

Yes, You Really Need to be FAA-Certified to Commercially Fly sUAS
Unmanned Aerial Online
| 10/11/2017
People often pose the question, "What will happen if I get caught flying a commercial drone without a Remote Pilot Certificate?" This is a very valid question, considering answers found on the internet might not always be accurate. For example, there are online forums suggesting 1) you won't get caught by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA); 2) you shouldn't bother getting a Remote Pilot Certificate; or 3) it's not worth it to invest in drone training or certification.This is not sound advice. The risk associated with non-certificated individuals can not only harm others but can also result in serious legal issues for both the individual and the hiring business.

Commercial drones are the fastest-growing part of the market
The Economist
| 06/10/2017
To most people a drone is one of two very different kinds of pilotless aircraft: a toy or a weapon. It is either a small, insect-like device that can sometimes be seen buzzing around in parks or on beaches, or a large military aircraft that deals death from the skies, allowing operators in Nevada to fire missiles at terrorist suspects in Syria. The first category, recreational drones aimed at consumers, are the more numerous by far; around 2m were sold around the world last year. The second category, military drones, account for the vast majority (nearly 90%) of worldwide spending on drones. But after a pivotal year for the civilian drone industry, an interesting space is now opening up in the middle as drones start to be put to a range of commercial use.

The Insurance Industry's Game Of Drones
Forbes
| 04/24/2017
The company in question is not alone my research suggests. Insurance companies have shown little signs of adapting rapidly enough to the rise of drones, which are fast growing as both commercial tools and recreational devices, with liability issues increasing in step with their popularity. As drone flying continues to grow, and the number of incidents likely to follow suit, this ambiguity from insurance companies can make for an unpleasant and potentially costly experience for the insurers and their customers. There's a pressing need for the insurance industry to better define what is a 'drone' in policies, as well as more clearly stipulate what is and isn't covered with the respect to these aircraft .

Your Business Drone Crashed... What Do You Do?

When a corporate drone crashes, it can be one of the worst-case scenarios for owners who rely on UAS technology to conduct a wide-array of business functions. Aside from the obvious monetary concerns, however, commercial drone owners and operators need to be familiar with the accident reporting requirements of both the Federal Aviation Administration ("FAA") and National Transportation Safety Board ("NTSB"). Although the respective regulations complement each other in many respects, the FAA and NTSB requirements are not identical. This article provides an overview of the current regulations related to drone accident reporting.
