Everything you need to know about flying drones legally in United Kingdom.
Built for CAA (Civil Aviation Authority) compliance.
A. For commercial operations under the Air Navigation Order 2016 (as amended) & UK UAS Regulation, the CAA (Civil Aviation Authority) requires the appropriate pilot credential. Hobby flight thresholds differ — see Registration Threshold below. MmowW guides you through every credential workflow specific to your category.
A. 100g (from Jan 2026). MmowW reminds you 30 days before any deadline and stores your registration number with one-tap retrieval at audit time.
A. £1,000 fine / unlimited for endangerment, plus possible criminal liability under Air Navigation Order 2016 (as amended) & UK UAS Regulation. MmowW prevents accidental non-compliance with daily rule monitoring and pre-flight checklist enforcement.
A. Yes. We support the UK SORA (via OA) workflow — including documentation packs, risk assessment templates, and submission preparation for CAA review.
A. Mandatory for Specific Category operations (EC785/2004 retained). MmowW can attach proof of insurance to every flight log automatically, satisfying audit requirements end-to-end.
A. £5.29 / drone / month — Big Mac Index parity. 14-day free trial, no credit card required.
A. No setup fee. No annual lock-in. Cancel any month with one click. Refund within 14 days, no questions.
A. No. Every member gets every feature — 30 features across 5 compliance flows. No 'pro' tier. No per-seat pricing. One price, per drone, forever.
A. Pricing scales linearly per drone, but our portal layer rewards 3+ drone operators with priority placement. We are deliberately not adding fleet discounts because parity-pricing is our promise.
A. 30 features grouped into 5 compliance flows: Pilot Registration, Aircraft Registration, Flight Applications, Flight Logbook, and Incident Reporting. See the full catalogue on the United Kingdom drone page.
A. Yes. Every entry is timestamped, geotagged, and exportable to PDF / CSV / JSON. Logs are retained 2 years per CAA guidance — audit-ready by design.
A. 10 country interfaces — English (UK/US/AU/NZ/CA), German (DE), French (FR), Dutch (NL), Swedish (SE), and 日本語 (JP). We add languages as we add countries.
A. Yes. Pilot Logbook captures entries offline and syncs when reconnected. Pre-flight checklists run in airplane-mode.
A. We export to standard log formats (CSV/JSON) ingestible by DJI Aircraft Logbook, Pix4D, and most third-party platforms. Direct API integration is on the 2026 roadmap.
A. Try password reset from https://mmoww.net/uk/app/. If the issue persists, email info@mmoww.net with your registered email — we reply within 1 business day.
A. Check that location permissions are enabled (we need GPS for CAA-grade timestamps). If the problem continues, the log is held in offline queue and will sync automatically once connectivity returns.
A. Email info@mmoww.net or use https://mmoww.net/uk/feedback/. Regulatory errors are P0 — we acknowledge within 24 hours and ship a fix the same day if CAA guidance is unambiguous.
A. One click in your dashboard, anytime. No phone call, no form, no awkward conversation. Strong, kind, beautiful — even at goodbye.
A. Yes. Settings → Export → choose PDF/CSV/JSON. We honor the right to leave; your data is yours.
A. Sawai Gyoseishoshi Office — a licensed Japanese legal-compliance firm operating since 1872 (Gyoseishoshi profession founding). Director Takayuki Sawai (No. 25346443) heads the firm; Vice-officer Poppo (autonomous AI) handles 24/7 operations.
A. No. MmowW is independent compliance software. We watch and translate CAA rules into a usable workflow, but we are not endorsed, certified, or affiliated with any aviation authority. Always verify with CAA for the most current requirements.
A. Same day. Our compliance watch monitors CAA (Civil Aviation Authority) bulletins, regulatory amendments, and Air Navigation Order 2016 (as amended) & UK UAS Regulation revisions every morning at 06:00 local time. When a change touches a flow you depend on, the SaaS UI is patched within hours and a member-wide notification is sent. The 2 years retention envelope is also re-validated automatically so historic logs remain audit-clean under the new rule.
A. Your active flight stays valid under the rule that was in force at takeoff. MmowW timestamps every entry against the Air Navigation Order 2016 (as amended) & UK UAS Regulation version active at submission, so retroactive enforcement risk is zero. The next pre-flight checklist will surface the new guidance with a side-by-side diff — strong, kind, beautiful.
A. Yes. The /uk/blog/ feed publishes every CAA update as a plain-language brief, cited to the original CAA bulletin URL. Members also receive an in-app diff view: what changed, why it matters, what action is required from you, and by when.
A. We watch the CAA BVLOS docket directly and mirror EU/global precedent (EASA SORA, FAA Part 108) when relevant. Whenever the UK SORA (via OA) workflow updates, your existing risk-assessment templates are versioned and the prior submission package stays archived for audit replay.
A. CAA (Civil Aviation Authority) is the federal authority of record; local councils may layer additional restrictions (national parks, urban districts, harbor zones). MmowW shows both layers in the pre-flight checklist and refuses to mark a flight as 'cleared' until the strictest applicable rule is satisfied.
