I think he has to register it wit the FAA. I think this is just a formality but do a search on this. I do not think manufactures have to notify you of this law until 2018.

You also would want to check and see if your community requires liability insurance. In general I think a number of serious flyers belong to the AMA and that provides liability insurance.

Does it have a camera that broadcasts? Then you might also need a Ham Technical license. Lets see what more knowledgably flyers can tell us. I do not fly drones but think it would be fun.
