Doak Campbell Stadium and FSU
Our crew flew five days of live coverage, live to FOX, at the FIFA Fan Festival Atlanta. Doak Campbell Stadium is on the FAA stadium list, so the 3 nautical mile flight restriction applies from an hour before to an hour after covered events. Florida State requires approval from its Assistant Vice President for Public Safety for any flight launched from university property, and it will not approve Main or Southwest Campus flights without FAA airspace authorization. See Live drone feeds for video boards and Concert and festival FPV drones across the US.
Concerts and festivals
Downtown venues and festivals are flown with the organizer's approval inside the production plan. Flying directly over an open crowd is only allowed when the drone and the operation meet FAA rules for flying over people, so otherwise we keep flight paths over the stage, closed areas and open lanes.
Federal sites and Florida law
The federal prison in Tallahassee and the St. Marks Powder plant in Wakulla County are federal no-drone areas. Florida Statute 330.41 bars drone flights over critical infrastructure such as substations, water plants, seaports, airports and military sites unless the flight is a commercial one that follows FAA rules or the owner consents in writing, and it bars flights over K-12 schools, so we plan routes around both.
Airspace
Tallahassee International, 4 miles southwest of downtown, has a control tower, and FSU's main campus sits within 5 miles of it, so many addresses need LAANC. We check every Tallahassee location on the FAA sectional, B4UFLY and NOTAMs before quoting, and file LAANC or FAA authorization for any address that needs it.
