Within the Budapest CTR, UAV operations outside the LHBP No Drone Zone are permitted up to 40m (132ft) AGL without ATS unit approval. Similar rules apply to military controlled airspace at airports like Kecskemét, Pápa, and Szolnok. The designated areas can be downloaded at the bottom of the article.
For airports with traffic information zones, UAV operations require airport operator approval. For RMZ/TMZ zones, UAV operations are only allowed with ATS approval.
Near III and IV airports, UAS operations are subject to a 2 km radius rule; for V airports, a 750 m radius applies. Advance notification to the aviation authority is required two days before the operation.
In restricted airspaces, UAV operations must comply with the specific rules of the area. Operations are generally prohibited in prohibited airspaces.
