Hire Our Drone Experts In 2022

By |March 29th, 2016|Categories: News |Tags: |Comments Off on Hire Our Drone Experts In 2022

The use of various types of unmanned aircraft ‘drones’ has massively increased over the past few years.   Drones have many uses – Utilities, Agriculture, Construction, Aerial Survey, Planning, Aerial Film & Photo to name just a few.Currently the UK has just under 5000 pilots with correct CAA permission.  If flying a drone for private leisure, you do not require CAA permission but the pilot should take full responsibility for doing so safely.  Using a drone for ‘paid aerial work’ requires you to hold correct CAA permission and carry valid insurance.Drone S [...]

The Use of drones filming events this summer

By |March 7th, 2016|Categories: News |Tags: |Comments Off on The Use of drones filming events this summer

Summer Event Drone FilmingDrones are fantastic but must only be flown at events by professionally trained pilots.  All qualified pilots must attend ground school, complete an operations manual and be flight tested before the CAA will issue the pilot or company permission. Valid insurance is a must.No drones can be flown within 150 metres of gatherings of 1000 or more persons. If you have a group of 1000 persons or less, providing the group are within the pilots control the 150m rule is removed completely.This is why you will see even more close range drone footage pictured withi [...]
