I realize the members of this forum are from around the world but for those of you who live in the United States, I was wondering if anyone has any experience flying in State or National Parks?  I do not have my Phantom Vision 2+ yet but I will in the near future.  Next summer I want to do some flying in both State and National parks.  Do you know if I will have any issues?

Thanks!

As the previous poster noted, 'drones' are banned in all parks run by the National Park Service - which means all National Parks, and most National Monuments.  However, they're still legal in many State Parks (depending on the State), and most BLM lands.

Not entirely true. Valley Forge park has a flying field maintained by an R/C club. However, if you have an AMA card and go to the main desk at the park, they can issue you a one day pass to fly at the field.
