    Against the law to do real estate photographs with drone?

    I've never heard any 25 ft rule either. What I do know is: FAA Part 107 Summary rules and best practices for UAS privacy. There are no specific rules about how close you can fly. It's no different than how close you can take a photograph from the street. Why would it be any different? The...
