drohnenstudie.de consumers in Germany will purchase approximately 1.3 million drones in 2018. The majority of these are semi-professional drones weighing between 250 grams and two kilograms, which require no special knowledge to operate. A drone pilot's license is required for heavier drones. Drones are also booming as toys – around 290,000 of these remote-controlled mini-aircraft will find their way into the rooms of children of all ages. Information on what to consider when operating drones and what is strictly prohibited can be found on the website of the German Air Navigation Services (DFS ).
