EQUIPMENT
We operate with the latest DJI products, Mavic Pro drones. These popular quad drones have the least amount of set up time and can grab the highest quality photos and video from the air, changing the camera settings in real time. We shoot cinematic, 10bit, high resolution formats for all your content needs.
SAFETY
Safety is our paramount concern. We will not fly over dense crowds or in inclement weather (precipitation, high winds, etc) and we use a visual observer to provide an additional level of on-site safety. We operate with experience and can fly in a variety of locations.
HOW FAR CAN YOU FLY
The UAS must remain within the Pilot in Command's line of sight at all times, and our height ceiling is 400 feet.
Our copters are equipped with a failsafe system so that if loses communication with the transmitter, it will automatically return to the takeoff location or the operator.
HOW LONG CAN YOU FLY
Each battery lasts approximately 20-25 minutes, depending on the flight maneuvers and temperature. Swapping out a battery only takes 2 minutes and we always bring multiple batteries to each shoot and recharge during flights as long as there is an outlet nearby.
FAA RESTRICTIONS
IMPORTANT: New rules and regulations are coming out regularly so be sure to ask us about the most current drone laws.
As a certified commercial pilot, we are knowledgeable about our flight procedures and maintain regulations and flight restrictions around all airports or restricted areas.
