A proud moment for the All About Drones team!

After a successful demonstration of the Joyance JT30 to SACAA, we continue pushing the boundaries of advanced drone operations in South Africa. From precision control to operational excellence, this milestone reflects our commitment to safety, compliance, and innovation in the UAS industry.

Well done to the entire team for the hard work and professionalism that made this possible. The future of drone operations is here—and we’re excited to be part of shaping it.

Know Your Drone. Know the Limits.

Not all drones are treated the same. If your drone weighs more than 7 kg or has an impact energy exceeding 15 kJ, you may not operate it unless you have the appropriate approval from the South African Civil Aviation Authority.

Heavier and higher-energy drones pose significantly greater risks in the event of a failure or collision. That’s why stricter regulations and approvals are in place—to ensure operations are conducted safely and responsibly.

Before you fly, make sure your drone falls within the legal limits or that you have the required authorization in place.

Stay compliant. Stay safe. Fly smart.

Airspace safety is everyone’s responsibility.

Never operate your drone within 10 km of an aerodrome—including airports, airfields, and helipads. These are high-risk zones, and even a small drone can create a serious collision hazard that endangers lives and disrupts critical aviation operations.

Always maintain strong situational awareness before and during your flight. Plan your operation, check nearby aviation activity, and always keep clear from any manned aircraft. If you see or hear a manned aircraft, give way immediately and increase separation.

Manned aircraft always has right of way.

Responsible pilots understand that the sky is shared. Respecting the sharded airspace protects passengers, crews, and people on the ground. This keeps drone operations safe and lawful for everyone.

Drones are powerful tools—but they come with important responsibilities. If you plan to use a drone for any commercial, corporate, or organisational purpose, you must be a licensed Remote Pilot (RPC) and operate in full compliance with the regulations set by the South African Civil Aviation Authority.

This applies even if no money is exchanged. If the flight provides any form of benefit—whether for a business, company, client, marketing, promotion, inspection, research, or even for a non-profit organisation—it is considered a regulated operation and must comply with the required licensing and approvals.

Operating without the proper certification and approvals is illegal and can lead to serious penalties.

At All About Drones, we promote safe, responsible, and compliant drone operations for everyone in the sky.

Know the rules. Respect the airspace. Fly right.

‼️News flash‼️

The Los Angeles Wildfire Drone incident serves as a stark reminder of the dangers of negligent drone operations. Due to an irresponsible drone pilot, emergency services were forced to halt their critical duties. In other situations, this kind of interference could make the difference between life and death. It is crucial for drone pilots to take full responsibility for ensuring their drones are operated safely and in compliance with regulations to avoid putting others at risk in any airspace, with all types of traffic.

Thermal applications using drones offer a cutting-edge solution for various industries. By capturing infrared imagery from various angles, thermal drones can detect heat signatures invisible to the naked eye, enabling efficient inspection, monitoring, and analysis. From identifying energy inefficiencies in buildings to locating missing persons in search and rescue missions, the possibilities are endless. Harnessing the power of thermal imaging, drones are reshaping how we see and solve problems in fields like agriculture, construction, public safety, and beyond.
