Commercial drone operators in Mililani must hold FAA Part 107 and coordinate with Wheeler Army Airfield airspace, and both HOA covenants and ROH Article 28 aerial advertising rules further constrain operations.
Honolulu has no dedicated commercial drone chapter; Part 107 applies and ROH Chapter 40 Article 28 restricts aerial advertising. Mililani's central Oahu location sits within Wheeler Army Airfield's Class D airspace boundary, so commercial flights often require LAANC or ATC authorization. Mililani Town Association and subdivision HOAs may require notice, proof of insurance, and limited flight windows for commercial operators shooting real estate or events. Park filming requires Chapter 10 compliance under Sec. 10-1.2 and a city permit. HRS Sec. 711-1114 addresses drone trespass over private lots.
FAA civil penalties can reach $32,666 per violation, plus HOA fines for covenant violations and park citations for unpermitted filming.
