Factual coverage of CAAS unmanned aircraft regulations, restricted airspace boundaries, camera configuration for aerial imaging, and RAW processing methods for operators based in Singapore.
A consolidated reference to the registration requirements, Broadcast Remote Identification mandate effective December 2025, permit categories, and altitude limits enforced by the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore.
Detailed breakdown of ISO, shutter speed, aperture, ND filter selection, white balance, and RAW workflow for capturing clean aerial stills in varying Singapore weather conditions.
Geographically-specific reference to restricted airspace around Changi Airport, Seletar Airport, military bases, Protected Areas, Temporary Restricted Areas during events, and designated UA Flying Areas.
Since February 2025, CAAS removed the cap on the number of UA above 250g that each individual or company can register. Commercial operators with permits may now fly up to 400 feet AMSL on all days of the week in designated areas. The Broadcast Remote Identification (B-RID) requirement took effect on 1 December 2025, mandating all UA above 250g to carry a compliant B-RID module when operating outdoors.
Operators can obtain real-time airspace clearance through the CFMS FlyItSafe mobile application without making phone calls to CAAS or RSAF, streamlining operations in pre-cleared zones.
