Is the FAA's problem here that the drone was involved in a monetized video, or that it was carrying the camera that recorded the monetized video?
I wonder if this would apply equally to other drone-related video production techniques:
- A video of a drone, recorded from the ground
- A prop is carried by a drone but the drone never appears in the frame
- The audio is recorded by a drone, but not video
- A camera is dropped from a drone but doesn't begin recording until after release
- The drone's engines are powered off during recording
