UAV regulation debate drones on
The 14th annual Unmanned Aerial Systems conference takes place on the 17th – 18th December 2014, London, UK.
London 28 July 2014
The Federal Aviation Administration is virtually at war with U.S. businesses trying to use small UAVs — unmanned aerial vehicles, or drones. The drone industry is frustrated, he said, "because they're ready to go. They're telling the FAA, ‘Look, the United States is behind everyone else. We've got the technology and we're going to use it,' and the FAA is saying, ‘You've got to slow down. We're not prepared to issue the regulations.'*"
Hear straight from the authorities about the current regulatory status regarding UAVs and where the industry is heading at the 14th annual Unmanned Aerial Systems conference.
Hear from the Civil Aviation Authority who will discuss regulation in greater detail during their presentation focusing on the 'Roadmap to integration'. Presentation highlights include:
*Where are we now with regulation?
*Outlining the future of small and medium unmanned systems: what are the technical challenges?
*Future legislation plans for civilian airspace
Don't miss the chance to hear from a line-up of speakers including:
*Lieutenant Colonel Craig Palmer, Commanding Officer, UAS Branch Leader, 32nd Regiment Royal Artillery
*Major Geraldine Montgomery, Lead UAS Staff Officer for WATCHKEEPER, HQ Army

Featured Product
BLE2 Series Brushless Motor & Driver
The BLE2 Series replaces our popular BLE Series and continues our brushless motor advantages by featuring an all new compact, high-power and high-efficiency brushless DC motor combined with a Driver that can be digitally set and controlled via external DC voltage or by the front panel.
The BLE2 Series can easily compete with larger 3-phase inverter driven motors in many more applications, with built-in simple holding torque function, saving space and increasing performance thanks to the advantages of a brushless motor design. The BLE2 Series has a maximum speed of 4000 r/min, achieving a speed ratio of 1:50 (80 to 4000 r/min). The new motor structure is small than previous models and enables high power and high efficiency while incorporating easy setting, installation and wiring. The new motor connector offers IP66 degree of protection and allows for easy and direct connection between motor and driver with two available orientation of cable outlet direction.
