Hello to everyone in this big community,
I have a simple question and I'm very sorry if this one was already covered in other thread.
I'm from Bulgaria - Eastern Europe, and I'm considering ordering Mavic Air (Starter Pack, not Fly More Combo), but I'll be using my relatives address at Colorado Springs.
My simple quesion is ... will it be possible for them (my relatives) to transport the drone for me from USA (Denver Airport, to NY airport and then from NY to Frankfurt Germany and then from Frankfurt to Sofia - Bulgaria) without registering the Mavic Air (drone/aircraft) in accordance with the following:
"
Register Your Drone (If Necessary)Some countries require that users register their drones before flight. Registration makes it so users can more easily locate their drone if it flies away or be held accountable if they fly irresponsibly. In the United States, anyone with a drone weighing over 0.55 lbs (250 g) is required to register their drone with the FAA. To register, make an account on the FAA’s website and pay the five dollar registration fee. After making an account, you’ll receive a code that needs to be marked somewhere on your drone. Write the number on a small sticky label and place it on a part of the drone that won’t affect operation, like on the side of the drone or inside the battery compartment. Just make sure not to cover any of the vision or ultrasonic sensors."
As far as I understand, the registration is not mandatory thing and I'm saying it, because the drone will be a present for my kid (not a citizent of USA), of course it will be unpacked from it's original packaging box to be carried at the hand lugage (or inside the big suitcase, please what are you going to advise me about where to be carried? )...
So my concerns are:
1. At the airports (in the USA and out of the USA too), is there a chance without any registration of the drone, to be confiscated at any airport, because of a lack of registration of the aircrat or there is no possibility to be confiscated ?
2. I assume that if the drone is not in its original package, it is a smart move, because it will be counted as a personal device and not as a potential "thing" for sell.
Thank in advance for your kind help in advance.
