Flying a drone in the Czech Republic: what every pilot needs to know (EU, OPEN A1/A3, FPV)
Are you planning to fly a drone in the Czech Republic? Whether you are a tourist, an FPV pilot,
a content creator, or someone living in the Czech Republic long-term, one thing is certain:
not knowing the rules will not protect you from a fine.
This is exactly why the DronDelivery project was created – clear and practical PDF guides
that explain what you are allowed to do, what you are not allowed to do, and what to watch out for,
without copying legal texts and without legal jargon.

Why flying a drone in the Czech Republic is confusing for both foreigners and local pilots
The Czech Republic is one of the most visited countries in Europe.
Prague, Český Krumlov, mountain regions, historic cities and landscapes
attract tourists from the EU, the USA and Asia.
And drones arrive with them.
The problem is simple:
European EASA rules alone are not enough.
Each country – including the Czech Republic – has its own national restrictions,
specific maps, bans and exceptions.
The result is confusion:
- pilots assume that if an app allows take-off, the flight is legal
- tourists do not realise that rules differ from country to country
- FPV pilots are unsure where their type of operation really fits
- people confuse hobby flying with “risk-free” flying
And yet it only takes one wrong location, one wrong flight
for a problem to arise – a fine, a conflict, confiscation of equipment,
or even a ban on further flying.
Don’t look for loopholes. Be sure.
The PDF guides DronDelivery – Czech Republic (OPEN A1/A3)
were created exactly for these situations:
when you want to fly legally, calmly and without disputes.
✔️ no copying of laws
✔️ practical examples from real-world operation
✔️ a dedicated FPV chapter (a bonus you won’t find elsewhere)
✔️ more than 30 pages of clearly explained rules

FPVVIDEO.cz and DronDelivery.eu – two projects, one goal
The FPVVIDEO.cz project has long focused on
FPV flying, drone video production, hands-on operational experience
and a real pilot’s perspective – not bureaucratic theory.
DronDelivery.eu is our follow-up project,
running in parallel, with a single clear goal:
to deliver knowledge to drone pilots in a clear and structured way.
No training courses. No paragraphs.
Just practical PDF guides
that you can open before a flight – at home, in a hotel,
or even at the airport on your way to the Czech Republic.
Who the DronDelivery PDF guides are for
Drone rules in the Czech Republic do not apply only to professionals
or to people who work with drones every day.
On the contrary – the most mistakes are made by pilots who fly only occasionally,
typically while on vacation or during travel.
The PDF guides of the DronDelivery project are designed
to make sense for anyone who wants to fly legally in the Czech Republic,
whether you live here long-term or are visiting for just a few days.
Tourists and travelers with a drone
The Czech Republic is a frequent destination for pilots from Germany, Austria, Poland,
Slovakia, but also from the USA, Canada or Asia.
Many of them bring a drone with good intentions –
to capture landmarks, cities, landscapes or mountain areas.
The problem is that:
- what applies at home does not automatically apply in the Czech Republic
- apps do not cover all bans and restrictions
- language barriers complicate finding reliable information
- official sources are fragmented and difficult to navigate
That is exactly why the PDFs are available in
Czech, English and German
and summarize everything important in a single document
that you can always keep at hand.
Hobby pilots and owners of standard camera drones
Do you own a DJI Mini, Air, Mavic or another camera drone
and fly mainly for fun?
Then you most likely fall into the OPEN A1 or A3 category.
That, however, does not mean you can fly anywhere.
Among hobby pilots, the biggest false sense of safety often arises:
“I’m not a professional, so this doesn’t apply to me.”
The PDF guides are not written for lawyers,
but for regular pilots who want to:
- feel calm while flying
- avoid interpreting legal paragraphs
- know when it is better not to fly
- avoid unnecessary conflicts
FPV pilots – a separate chapter, a separate reality
FPV operations are specific and cannot simply be
lumped together with “standard” camera drones.
Yet this happens very often in practice.
That is why the PDF guides include
a dedicated bonus chapter focused on FPV,
something you typically will not find in similar materials.
This section is based on real-world practice,
not theoretical interpretations,
and is intended for pilots
who want to fly FPV sensibly and legally.
Why “knowing the basics” or a quick Google search is not enough
The internet is full of articles about flying drones.
The problem is that most of them are:
- outdated
- incomplete
- written for a different country
- or contradictory
As a result, a pilot may “know something”,
but in reality does not know whether they can take off right here and right now.
DronDelivery PDF guides are not encyclopedias,
but a practical tool.
You open it, read it, understand it – and you know where you stand.
FPV bonus: a chapter you won’t find anywhere else
If you fly FPV, you probably already know that most standard articles about drone flying
do not take your type of flying into account.
FPV operation has a different dynamic, different risks,
and in practice involves completely different situations than classic “cinema” drones.
Yet most available materials either:
- ignore FPV completely
- address it only marginally
- or place it in the same category as standard camera drones
This is exactly why a
dedicated FPV chapter
was created as a bonus within the DronDelivery PDF guide.
Why FPV is the most problematic in practice
FPV pilots often fly:
- low above the ground
- in complex and technical environments
- close to structures and objects
- in places where standard drones usually do not operate
This is where the biggest uncertainties arise,
along with conflicts with the surroundings
and the risk of making the wrong decision.
Not because FPV pilots want to break the rules,
but because no one has explained them clearly.
Not theory. Practice.
The FPV bonus in the DronDelivery PDF guide
was not created at a desk from legal paragraphs,
but from real flights, real situations,
and real problems pilots face in the field.
Do not expect an academic explanation.
Expect a practical pilot’s perspective,
from someone who knows where FPV meets reality.
The most common FPV pilot mistakes (that keep repeating)
Without going into details, one thing can be said:
most problems arise from assumptions.
- “If I’m not endangering anyone, it’s fine.”
- “If I fly only briefly, nothing will happen.”
- “If others fly here, I can too.”
- “If I have a spotter, everything is solved.”
Reality is more complex – and that is exactly why it makes sense
to keep the FPV section separate and explained
without oversimplification and without fear-mongering.
FPV bonus as part of the package, not an extra fee
The dedicated FPV chapter is not a separate product,
it is not a paid add-on,
and it is not a marketing trick.
It is a full-fledged part of the PDF,
created because the FPV community has different needs
than standard camera drone users.
Thanks to this, the DronDelivery PDF guide
is useful for:
- hobby pilots
- content creators
- tourists
- FPV pilots
FPV pilot? This is exactly for you.
If you don’t want to guess whether you are “estimating things correctly”,
but want to have clear context and peace of mind while flying,
the FPV bonus is one of the main reasons
to get the PDF guide.

Why a single PDF has more value than dozens of articles online
Today, the internet is full of information about flying drones.
The problem is not a lack of information, but rather
overload, ambiguity, and contradictions.
One article claims one thing, another claims something else.
A forum adds yet another interpretation, a YouTube video a different opinion.
And a pilot who simply wants to get oriented
ends up more confused than at the beginning.
The PDF guide DronDelivery – Czech Republic (OPEN A1/A3)
was created precisely as a response to this problem.
Everything in one place. No clutter.
Instead of searching for information across ten different websites,
in multiple languages and with varying levels of quality,
you get one comprehensive document
focused on a single country and a single topic.
This is not an academic text.
It is a practical tool
that you can return to:
- before traveling to the Czech Republic
- before a specific flight
- when planning a location
- when you are unsure
More than 30 pages of experience and context
The PDF guide has a length of over 30 pages.
Not to be “long”,
but to make room for context and connections
that you will never find in short articles.
Each chapter has a clear purpose:
to help the pilot understand the context,
not to overwhelm them with details.
Thanks to this, the PDF is useful for:
- beginners
- more experienced pilots
- tourists
- FPV pilots
Price vs. reality
The price of the PDF is set
to be accessible to anyone
who takes flying at least somewhat seriously.
Compared to:
- the price of a drone
- the cost of traveling
- the cost of equipment
- the time spent searching for information
it represents a negligible investment.
In contrast, a fine, an unnecessary conflict,
or the stress caused by uncertainty
can cost significantly more –
financially and mentally.
It’s not just a PDF. It’s peace of mind.
The greatest value of the DronDelivery PDF guide
is not a list of rules.
It is the sense of certainty
that you know where you stand,
and that you have made an informed decision.
You don’t have to be 100% sure about every detail.
It is enough to know that you have a resource at hand
that can quickly point you in the right direction.
A practical guide instead of uncertainty
If you want to fly in the Czech Republic
without stress and unnecessary risks,
the DronDelivery PDF guide makes sense.

Flying a drone in the Czech Republic without stress, fines, or uncertainty
The Czech Republic is beautiful, diverse, and visually very appealing.
That is exactly why drone pilots from all over Europe and the world come here.
But the more attractive the location, the greater the responsibility.
Flying a drone today is not about courage or luck.
It is about making an informed decision.
And that applies equally to tourists, local pilots,
hobby enthusiasts, and the FPV community.
If you have made it this far, it is very likely
that you want to fly:
- legally
- without unnecessary stress
- with respect for local rules
- and without worrying that you might overlook something
Exactly for these situations,
the DronDelivery project PDF guides were created.
Not as legal documents,
but as practical tools for real-world flying.
Why DronDelivery makes sense
- focused exclusively on the Czech Republic
- a clear overview of OPEN A1/A3 without legal jargon
- a dedicated FPV bonus you won’t find elsewhere
- more than 30 pages of practical context
- PDF available in Czech, English, and German
- everything in one place, available anytime
The DronDelivery.eu project was created in parallel with
FPVVIDEO.cz as its natural extension.
While FPVVIDEO focuses on creation, flying, and real-world practice,
DronDelivery focuses exclusively on
clear, understandable, and usable information.
No unnecessary promises.
No fear-mongering.
No confusion.
Be prepared. Fly legally. Stay calm.
If you plan to fly a drone in the Czech Republic –
whether on vacation, while traveling, or long-term –
the DronDelivery PDF guide is the easiest way
to be confident and avoid unnecessary problems.
