State Farm Participating in FAA's Drone Integration Pilot Program

In the Carolinas, State Farm is in the air. The insurance company has obtained an FAA waiver to conduct beyond-visual-line-of-sight (BVLOS) flights for disaster damage assessment flights using senseFly eBee fixed-wing drones to capture high-resolution imagery. The aircraft has a range of 4.6 miles and can be pre-programmed for autonomous flight.
