Where to fly a drone in Petaling Jaya and the Klang Valley
Where you can fly.
The no-fly basics, and how to check a place before you take off.
No-fly basics.
Stay below 400 feet.
That is 120 metres above the ground. Higher than that needs permission.
Keep it in sight.
Fly where you can see the drone with your own eyes, the whole time.
Pick an open space.
Away from people, crowds, trees and power lines.
Stay well away from airports.
Airports, airfields and helipads are no-fly zones.
Skip restricted sites.
Government, military and other restricted sites are off limits.
Fly in good weather.
No rain and only a light wind. Drones do not fly in rain.
Do you need a permit?
It depends on where and how you fly. Some flights need authorisation from the Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia (CAAM), which can take up to 14 working days, so ask early if your location is near an airport or in the city centre.
CAAM sets the rules and has the final word. This page is a guide, not legal advice.
