[QUOTE="digitalmouse, post: 94286, member: 11891"] According to [URL='http://dronerules.eu/en/professional/regulations/switzerland']Switzerland - Regulations - Drone Rules[/URL], you should not be flying recreational drones at night anyway. As with other countries, like Denmark, you would likely need a seperate permission or certificate to be qualified to fly at night - and that is typically if you need to fly for a commercial purpose, like making a video or night photography, or search and rescue operations. And as ajkm alludes to, if you block the LEDs from being visible, then you lose VLOS. So then you violate Swiss (and pretty much everyone else in the EU) rules for flying a drone in the first place. You should also check [URL="https://map.geo.admin.ch/?topic=aviation&bgLayer=ch.swisstopo.pixelkarte-grau&layers=ch.bazl.luftfahrthindernis,ch.bafu.schutzgebiete-aulav_jagdbanngebiete,ch.bafu.bundesinventare-vogelreservate,ch.bafu.bundesinventare-jagdbanngebiete,ch.bazl.einschraenkungen-drohnen&X=189554.62&Y=664804.11&zoom=1&catalogNodes=1379,2863&layers_visibility=false,false,true,true,true&layers_opacity=1,0.75,0.75,0.75,0.6&lang=en"]Swiss Geoportal[/URL] to make sure you are allowed to fly in your area, in Switzerland. For example, it is not allowed to fly drones in [URL='https://www.mscgerber.com/things-to-do-in-interlaken/']Interlaken[/URL], [URL='https://www.mscgerber.com/things-to-do-in-zermatt-in-winter/']Zermatt[/URL] or [URL='https://www.mscgerber.com/visit-lucerne-in-winter/']Lucerne[/URL]. If you want to do it anyways you can make a request for an exception.
