Drone Pilots & Operators Directory

Q: What services does a Drone Pilot offer?

Drone pilots can be hired for surveying, aerial photography, filmmaking and mapping, among other services.

Q: What can I expect from a Drone Pilot?

A drone pilot should be able to turn your brief into a set of professional images and videos that you can use for a variety of purposes. If required, they will coordinate the approvals from local air traffic control and provide risk assessments for a safe flight on the day.

Q: Where do Drone Pilots work?

For the most part they work outdoors and their locations include film sets, countryside, construction sites and out at sea. Skilled drone pilots can work inside to provide dramatic fly-through first-person films.

Q: What industries do Drone Pilots support?

Drone pilots are used in a variety of industries such as the military, government, agriculture, construction, environmental, film, wedding photography, content creation and the mapping industry.

Q: Can I just hire a friend who has a Drone?

Any kind of commercial drone work requires the operator to have a license. This includes using the images for advertising, selling, or any way which directly or indirectly will generate revenue.

Q: Will the Drone Pilot edit the video and photos for me?

Usually, yes. They have vast experience in photo and video editing software to provide you with finished content you will be proud of.

Q: Why should I use a Drone Pilot?

Drone operators can provide high-quality images and video that will set your marketing activity apart from the competition. In the construction industry, they can assist with site surveys for hard to reach areas, such as roofs. A drone survey is a cost-effective and time-efficient alternative to setting up scaffolding and conducting a manual survey.
