Frequently Asked Questions

Are you insured?

Yes, I have public liability and professional indemnity insurance.

Where are you based?

We’re based in Darlington, County Durham and offer services to the surrounding counties. If you’re further afield, still get in touch, we are happy to travel.

Where and when can you fly?

There are strict rules on where we can fly our drones. The drone must always be in our visual line of sight (VLOS) and it is against UK law to fly a drone over a crowd of people. There are other specific rules depending on drone licenses held and speed and weight of the drone, all of which we are fully trained on and will provide any necessary details required for the individual job.

Weather is also a big factor. We’re unable to fly in strong wind, rain, hail or snow showers. If weather was to impact our ability to shoot on the date and time booked, we’d rearrange with you another suitable time.

Are you trained as a pilot?

Yes, I have passed the A1 and A3 flyer licence and i am CAA qualified, holding a valid Flyers ID and Operators ID.

How much are your services?

My pricing varies depending on the scope and complexity of the work required.

For example, for a standard set of aerial roof inspection photographs you can expect a price from £100. For more complicated requirements, e.g. photos that require editing and / or videography, prices would vary depending on the complexity and time required to complete the job.

I will provide a quote for each job once i have an understanding of your requirements.

How long does it take to receive my photos and / or videos?

I aim to get unedited photos / videos to you within 2 working days. Any job requiring editing of photos or videos will have a longer lead time, this will be agreed with you upfront.

What drone do you use?

I use a DJI Mini 4 Pro.   An excellent drone that shoots in 4K and up to 48 mega pixels. Weighing 249grams, this advanced drone has a wide variety of uses and can be used in areas that heavier drones are not permitted to fly.
