Description
The FTX Neon Drone Body, part number FTX0531, is a drone body component from FTX. The supplied information also highlights the UK requirements for operating drones and model aircraft outdoors, helping users understand the need to fly safely and lawfully.
UK Flying Guidance
Depending on the weight or class of the drone or model aircraft, a Flyer ID, an Operator ID, or both may be required before flying. A Flyer ID is obtained by passing the required theory test, while an Operator ID registers the person responsible for the drone or model aircraft. The guidance states that drones weighing from 250g to less than 25kg require both IDs, while requirements for lighter aircraft vary according to weight, class and whether a camera is fitted.
Users should check the latest information from the UK Civil Aviation Authority before flying. The legal requirements can change, so follow the current Drone Code and operate responsibly.

Specifications
Update 01/01/26: The laws have changed regarding operating drones and model aircraft in the UK.
What you need to do:
You must take a theory test and register with the CAA before flying most drones or model aircraft outdoors in the UK.
There are two requirements and you may need to meet both:
- Pass a theory test to get a Flyer ID.
This makes sure you know how to fly safely and legally.
- Register with the CAA for an Operator ID.
This registers you as someone who is responsible for a drone or model aircraft.
Most people get their Flyer ID and Operator ID at the same time.
It is against the law to fly a drone or model aircraft without having the required IDs.
You can also be fined for breaking the law when flying. In the most serious cases, you could be sent to prison.
The requirements are based on the weight or class of your drone or model aircraft.
