Under ROH Sec. 10-1.2 park rules, recreational drones and model aircraft are restricted to designated parks, meaning most Ewa Gentry neighborhood parks do not allow drone flight without prior authorization.
Honolulu's Chapter 10 park rules limit model aircraft and drone operations in public parks to specifically designated locations. For Ewa Gentry residents, that means launching or landing a drone from a neighborhood park or beach park typically requires confirming the park is designated for that use or obtaining approval from the Department of Parks and Recreation. Flight over residential property is also governed by federal FAA rules on altitude and privacy, and state-level HRS Sec. 711-1114 addresses trespass with unmanned aircraft systems. Flying within restricted airspace near Kalaeloa Airport is an additional consideration for leeward Oahu operators.
Launching or landing in non-designated parks can result in citations under park rules and removal from the property.
