Information, not legal advice and not a clearance to fly
Windhorse is an independent site about flying drones in the United States. It is not the FAA, and it is not affiliated with any government agency or drone maker.
The pages and tools explain FAA rules in plain words and name their sources. They are information. They are not legal advice, and nothing here authorizes a flight.
A GO from “Can I fly here?” means the check found no rule or restriction against the flight in the public data it read at that moment. It is not a LAANC authorization, not a waiver and not permission from the owner of the land. You are the pilot, and the flight is your responsibility. Always check official sources before you fly.
You are the pilot
Before every flight, check the spot in “Can I fly here?” and the official sources.

Data can be late, incomplete or missing
The check reads public data from the FAA, the National Weather Service, NOAA, the U.S. Geological Survey and the Census Bureau when you ask.
Any of these sources can be late, incomplete or unavailable, and a temporary flight restriction can appear at short notice. When a source cannot be read, the check does not answer GO: it says what it could not check. Weather figures are forecasts for the spot, not measurements where you stand.
The maps on this site are drawings made from public data. They are not for navigation.
No warranty
The site is provided as it is, without warranties of any kind.
To the extent the law allows, Windhorse is not liable for loss or damage that comes from using the site or relying on it, including fines, crashes, injury and lost or damaged equipment.
Using the site
You may use the pages and tools for yourself and for your work, link to them, and quote short passages with credit to Windhorse.
Please do not copy the site wholesale, resell its tools or load them with automated requests: the flight check calls public data services that everyone shares.
Copyright and names
The text, drawings and code of this site belong to Windhorse.
Product names and manufacturer photos belong to their owners and are used to identify the products. Data from U.S. government agencies is public information.
