In Australia, the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) classifies drones into specific size categories by weight. Most entry-level drones fit into the Micro (250g or less) and the Very Small (250.1g to 2kg) This under 2 kg classification is important as it does not require a drone pilot license to fly in most home situations.

It is important to become familiar with the CASA organisation and your responsibility as a drone owner/pilot.
