The Great Exit: Why Are So Many Operators Leaving the Drone Industry?

By |February 11th, 2022|Categories: Aerial Filming Aerial Photography Aerial Video and Filming CAA Drone Safe Store Newsletter-Articles |Tags: |Comments Off on The Great Exit: Why Are So Many Operators Leaving the Drone Industry?

Why Are So Many Commercial Operators Leaving the Drone Industry?Drone technology has advanced at an incredible pace in recent years. Aircraft functionality, safety features, camera quality and sheer power to capture and process aerial data is mind-blowing. The recently launched Mavic 3 is evidence of this, making pro-quality an affordable option for anyone serious about making money as a drone operator.It’s been a slow start in the UK but industries and the public are recognising the benefits of practical applications of aerial technology. Insurance companies, surveyors, energy com [...]

Drone Safe Register March Newsletter

By |April 1st, 2022|Categories: Newsletter-Articles |Tags: |Comments Off on Drone Safe Register March Newsletter

The Weather showed what summer has in store for 2022The unexpected ‘heatwave’ in March gave us a taste of hopefully what’s to come in the Summer. Unfortunately, it was followed only days later by snow across many parts of the country! Those few days of great weather did at least give drone pilots opportunities to get out flying - and a lot of it was paid work and not just fun. We saw a major increase in our private network of people going outside and enjoying their drones and taking stock images and uploading them to drone safe register stock. [...]

Extreme Heat Temperatures soared in July, with the UK average exceeding 30 degrees on the 18th and 19th of July. We shouldn’t moan about this year’s heatwave of course as it’ll be back to short daylight hours and constant rain again before we know it! But the heat did mean most of our operators took a well-deserved break. In extreme heat there are risks of the electronics or batteries in drones suffering damage, so temperatures must be taken into account for safety. [...]

Summer events are coming to an endThe heat may have been too much for some people, but we can’t complain about the lack of a summer this year! Although the number of outdoor events this year has been good news for commercial drone operators, extreme temperatures can be a challenge with drones overheating. Cooler weather means it’ll be easier to plan flights in the knowledge that heat-related technical problems won’t lead to postponement. [...]

We’re also facing an energy crisis with prices of electricity and gas soaring and no signs of improvement in sight.

Drones Becoming MainstreamIf you’re a drone enthusiast it’s fascinating to look back on how the technology emerged and how far it’s come. Like many things, a lot of the predictions about how drones might be used haven’t come true, but there are others that we couldn’t have imagined ten or fifteen years ago. For example, back in 2013 Amazon were talking about deliveries by drone from their distribution centres direct to customer homes. We’ve yet to see this, and many would argue with modern logistics it’s not really necessary anyway. But we are seeing drones used in ever [...]
