AWM Permit, anyone have any experience with UAVs and hunting? - 12/10/17 03:34 PM
I have a few friends with land, they have been wanting me to get out there with one of my UAVs (drones) and fly around to scout out the animals. I did some googling, and found that I have to get a AWM Permit (https://tpwd.texas.gov/business/permits/land/wildlife_management/aerial_wl_management/) and spend $210 for the processing fee (https://apps.tpwd.state.tx.us/awm/flows/home?execution=e1s2)
Before I go and spend $$ on anything. Was wondering if anyone had any feedback. Has anyone ever used a UAV for scouting purposes? Since the FAA restricts you to 400ft, does the noise affect the animals down below? I think they are primarily wanting me to find the hogs, but I know they hunt a wide variety of game.
