Why start from the air
An aerial view explains a site in a second: where the buildings sit, how big the grounds are, what the approach looks like. For a school it shows the whole campus; for a development, the plots and the surroundings; for a factory, the scale and the access. As an aerial 360 it becomes the opening scene of a virtual tour, with hotspots that drop down into each building.
Permissions and safety
Our pilots are registered with the Civil Aviation Authority and fully insured. We carry out a risk assessment for every flight, obtain permissions for restricted airspace, and fly at heights from ground level to 120 metres. You confirm the date; we handle the paperwork.
Beyond marketing
The same visit can capture construction progress, roof and solar inspections, or an event from above. Drone work combines well with a virtual tour or photography shoot on the same day.

Frequently asked questions
Can’t find the answer you’re looking for? Just get in touch, or even better, book a video consultation.
Are you licensed to fly drones commercially?
Yes. Our pilots hold the required CAA qualifications and Operator ID, we carry public liability insurance for drone work, and we handle permissions for restricted airspace such as near airports or in central London.
What is an aerial 360 scene?
A full 360-degree panorama captured from the drone at a chosen height, typically 30 to 120 metres. Used as the opening scene of a virtual tour it shows the whole site and its surroundings before visitors step inside.
Can you fly over schools and busy sites?
Usually, with planning. We carry out a risk assessment for every flight, agree timings with you (for example outside break times at a school) and keep the required distances from people not involved in the shoot.
Do you charge travel for drone work?
No. As with all our services, there are no travel charges anywhere in mainland UK.
