Who We Are - about Us
SAFETY FIRST
As a CAA approved UAV operator, we are held to account for the safety and legality of each and every UAV flight we conduct. The possible uses of drones is vast and as they become ever more popular both recreationally and commercially an emphasis has to be put on the safe, responsible and legal use of them.
Our operations manual lays out the parameters in which we can fly and is referred to for each project we undertake.
Many hobbyists are offering aerial filming and photography work, please be aware that this is not only illegal but potentially very dangerous and were an incident to happen it is very likely they won't be covered by appropriate insurance.
only trust a CAA approved operator to conduct any aerial work you require.
OPERATIonAL BUBBLE
For obvious safety reasons there is a limit to how far and high we can fly. The limit is set by the CAA and is called the operational bubble. This is limited 400 ft high and 500m distance from the operator and the term used for this bubble is (VLOS) Visual Line Of Sight.
Whilst always operating within line of sight we can fly up to 500m from the pilot in all directions, meaning if we have a central takeoff point we can fly 1000m in any direction, We can also apply for permission if the shot you need is higher than the 400ft ceiling, although this is not always guaranteed.
WEATHER LIMITS
There are only 2 reasons we won't be able to fly once we have conducted all our pre flight surveys and checklists. These are any form of rain, snow or wind gusts over 20 mph.
Whilst our UAV can be operated and controlled in stronger winds it is almost impossible to provide smooth, vibration free footage which we would be proud of supplying. We follow forecasts up until the last possible moment before we have to travel to the shoot location. If we do have to cancel due to in-climate weather we will endeavour to reschedule for the next convenient day.
Please see below for details of our staff. Our qualified pilots are all former serving members of the Fleet Air Arm and have worked within professional aviation for many years.
