Yes. I have “permissions for aerial work” granted by the C.A.A and hold qualifications granted by the Civil Aviation Authority.
ARE YOU INSURED?
I am fully insured and I also have public liability cover.
CAN YOU FLY IN ANY WEATHER?
Unfortunately, I cannot fly in the rain, fog or snow! Strong winds can also be a problem however, I use a camera gimbal which delivers very smooth shots. Please see my terms and conditions for weather issues.
CAN YOU FLY INDOORS?
I can though I require a very large room to fly in!
HOW MANY PEOPLE OPERATE THE EQUIPMENT?
Just me but sometimes I need a spotter or assistant.
HOW LONG CAN YOU FLY FOR?
I can fly for up to around 30 minutes on a single battery, after which I need to land the drone to change the power supply.
I have enough batteries to stay airborne all day.
WHAT IS THE HEIGHT, RANGE & SPEED OF THE DRONE?
I am only permitted to fly up to 400ft, however I can apply for extended heights on a job-by-job basis if flying higher is required.
I can fly out to 500m giving me a 1km radius. The fastest the drone travels is 35mph. I need to maintain line of sight with the drone at all times.
