Are you allowed to use a drone to film as long as it is not DIRECTLY above any part of the playing field and or spectators ?
If we would place our drone on a endline not above any part of the playing surface, is that ok?
Drone flight is not permitted near the field when game is in play. We are only permitted to fly drone in end zone during pregame.
