Pro tip: Flying a drone into restricted airspace is a terrible idea. Doing it while you're unlawfully present in the United States is what we call an overachiever move. Congratulations you've turned a drone violation into a deportation case. Aim lower preferably below the TFR.

🚨Drone operators🚨 Know before you fly. Three drones were seized in Atlanta for violating FAA flight restrictions. Unauthorized UAS operations near venues or restricted airspace may result in seizure, fines, and criminal charges. Check airspace restrictions before every flight.
