Drone regulations in Taiwan
In Taiwan, it is obviously possible to start a quadrocopter. However, the legislator is also active in Taiwan and is working on new rules. These are probably primarily intended for commercial drones weighing more than 25 kilograms. It is unusual that legislation for privately used drones should be in the hands of regional governments. I am curious how this can be put into practice.
Maximum flight altitude: At the moment, you can not climb higher than 120 meters with a copter.

Since January 2015, we travel around the world. In our backpack we carry a camera drone which we use to capture the best places from a bird’s perspective. First we travelled with a DJI Phantom 2. But now we use a Yuneec Typhoon H. On our blog we share the best tips for you about travelling with a copter. If you have questions about this article or new information, don’t hesitate to leave us a comment!

Hi,
In DJI GO should we turn the satellite settings to China?
Thanks for answering
Hi Nico,
I am sorry, but I don’t understand your question.
That is simple:
With DJI Drones with the app DJI GO in the settings you can choose between Chinese satellites systems or the regulars
What about Taiwan as it’s not China mainland
Thx for answer
Any regulations bringing the drone into Taiwan? My drone is registered through FAA, but do I have to register it to any regulations that’s Taiwan specific?
