Hunting with Drone – Is it Legally and Morally Correct?

Can drones legally be used to help hunters find game?  Is using drones for hunting morally sound?  Could a commercial drone pilot work as a hunting spotter?  Today, we have a heavy conversation around drones and hunting.

Bill calls in from PA to ask about drones and hunting.  As a commercial drone pilot, Bill wants to know if he could make money flying drones for hunters.  This sparks an interesting debate between Paul and Rob.  While thermal cameras could be used for this purpose, is it ethical?

To answer the question, we discuss different ways that drones and thermal mapping could be used to help hunters.  We talk about the ways that drone technology might offer benefits for hunting range owners, as well.

Thanks for asking such a good question Bill!  Fly safe!
