Police Drone Program
In July 2021, the Chico Police
Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) program, commonly known as drones
was implemented.
The department currently has seven pilots who hold a commercial drone, Part 107 license, issued by the Federal Aviation Administration. Chico PD currently flies two Mavic Enterprise Advanced drones along with four Mavic Mini 2’s. The Mavic Advanced drones have a thermal camera that allows officers to more effectively track activity in the dark.
