(Two ways to fly)

FPV or camera drone?

We fly both, and plenty of projects use both. Here's how they differ, so you know what to ask for.

Camera drone

Smooth, high & wide

GPS-stabilised and rock steady. The go-to for high-resolution stills, sweeping reveals and big establishing shots from altitude.

  • Best forProperty, landscapes, events, surveys
  • FliesOutdoors, high and wide
  • DeliversHigh-res photos & smooth 4K video

FPV drone

Fast, close & immersive

Flown by hand through live video goggles. It can get closer, move faster and fly indoors, turning a space into one continuous cinematic journey.

  • Best forVenues, showrooms, action, brand films
  • FliesIndoors, through gaps, low & close
  • DeliversDynamic one-take 4K flythroughs

Last updated

Which drone service do I need?

It depends on what you want people to feel. For a sense of scale, location and setting, a camera drone's smooth aerial photos and video are ideal. To take viewers inside a space in one continuous, immersive shot, FPV is the answer. Many projects use both. Tell us your goal and where the footage will be used, and we'll recommend the right mix.

Can you film inside our venue while it's open?

We usually film before opening or during a quiet period, so the flight path is clear and your staff and guests aren't disturbed. If you want the venue to look busy, we can plan a short, controlled shoot with staff or invited guests in place. Every indoor flight is planned and risk-assessed.

How long does a drone shoot take?

Most property and venue shoots fit comfortably within a half day, including setup and safety checks. Events, productions and multi-location shoots usually need a full day. We'll confirm the timings with you when we plan the shoot.

Do you edit the footage for us?

Yes. We can deliver a finished edit, short vertical cuts for social media, or the raw 4K footage for your own editor. Video editing is quoted separately, so you only pay for what you need.

Can you film our wedding with a drone?

Yes. We liaise with your venue and your photographer or videographer beforehand, check the airspace and any venue rules, and plan the flights around the key moments of the day. We keep safe distances from guests throughout, so the drone captures the day without getting in the way.

Can you record construction progress over several months?

Yes. We schedule regular visits and shoot from the same positions and heights each time, so the images line up and show clear progress from groundworks to completion. They work well for client updates, reports, case studies and marketing.

Can you capture aerial art for our home, office or hotel?

Yes. You can commission a shoot of a location that means something to you, or we can suggest locations that suit your space and style. Images are carefully edited and supplied as high-resolution files suitable for large-format printing.

Do you work with production companies and agencies?

Yes. We're happy to work as part of a wider crew, supplying drone footage to a director's brief and in the format your editor needs. We handle the flight planning, airspace checks and permissions so the shoot runs to schedule.
