Drone users must follow a number of restrictions when using the gadgets.
In November 2016, the Civil Aviation Authority launched a website to publish a revised code of conduct, labelled the Drone Code.
The rules say the devices must not be flown:
Above 400ft (120m)
Where you cannot see them
Near aircraft, airports or airfields
Within 150ft (50m) of people or property
Over crowds and built-up areas
Within 500ft (150m) horizontally of crowds and built-up areas.
