We fly cinema cameras, survey sensors and thermal imagers, and hand back footage, maps and reports you can use.
01What we do
Helicopters are expensive. Scaffolding is slow. Ladders only reach so far. We put a camera, a scanner or a thermal eye exactly where you need it, and hand back footage, maps and reports you can use.
02Services
One aircraft, four payloads. Pick the job and we fly the right sensor, then hand back the files your team already uses.
01
A stabilised cinema camera in the sky, flown exactly where a crane or a helicopter would be too slow, too costly or simply unable to go.
02
Overlapping straight-down photos stitched into maps and models you can measure from your desk, with ground control for survey-grade accuracy.
03
Close visual and thermal passes over roofs, facades, solar arrays and plant — no scaffolding, no shutdown, no one working at height.
04
Repeat flights on the same grid, week after week or month after month, so every pass lines up and change is visible frame to frame.
03Fleet
Hover-precise quadcopters for close, detailed work. Long-endurance fixed-wings for big ground. We pick the airframe that fits the job, not the other way round.
Multirotor MD-Q
Takes off from a car park, holds a point in the air to the centimetre and gets close to roofs, facades and towers. The workhorse for film, inspection and smaller surveys.
Fixed-wing MD-W
Flies like a small aircraft, so one flight covers what a quadcopter needs a day for. Built for mapping corridors, farms, quarries and whole estates in straight, efficient lines.
04Sensors
The same landscape, read four ways. Each sensor answers a different question.
Stabilised camera
Sees the scene as a director would: smooth, wide and in natural colour.
Best forFilm and TV, property, events
Photogrammetry
Sees the ground in overlapping straight-down photos, stitched into one measurable map.
Best forConstruction, earthworks, land
Radiometric infrared
Sees heat instead of light, with a temperature reading in every pixel.
Best forSolar farms, roofs, substations, building envelopes
Laser scanning
Sees shape, using laser pulses that pass through gaps in vegetation to the ground.
Best forForestry, corridors, complex structures
05Industries
The same aircraft and pilots change payloads to match the question you need answered.
01
Weekly orthomosaics and cut/fill volumes that keep earthworks, programme and payment on the same map.
02
Thermal and visual inspection of solar farms, substations and lines from a safe standoff, with the plant online.
03
Cinematic aerial tours and stills that show a property in its setting, not just its walls.
04
Stabilised aerial plates and hero shots, flown to the director's brief and delivered graded and ready to cut.
05
Multispectral and thermal maps that flag crop stress, drainage gaps and irrigation loss before it shows to the eye.
06
Crowd-flow imagery for safety planning and live-angle aerial coverage for the highlights reel.
06Process
Every job follows the same flight plan, whether it is one roof or a forty-hectare site. You always know which waypoint we are on.
Tell us the site, the goal and the deadline. One short call is usually enough to scope the flight and the files you need back.
We check the airspace, write the risk assessment and request landowner and authority permissions. Then we pick a weather window and a backup date.
A pilot and an observer arrive on site, set a safety cordon and fly the plan. You can watch the live preview and ask for another pass.
Film is edited and graded. Survey and inspection data is stitched, georeferenced and quality-checked before it leaves us.
You get the files in the formats your team already uses. We walk you through them so the results make sense to everyone who needs them.

08FAQ
The short version. Anything else, ask us directly — it is usually the fastest answer.
Once the site and scope are agreed, a typical job is in the air within 3–5 working days. Urgent same-week windows are possible when the airspace is straightforward. We lock a weather window and confirm it 48 hours before take-off.
Yes. We file the flight authorisation, coordinate with air traffic control and notify any affected airport or site before every job. You only confirm site access and who meets us on the day. Complex sites — cities, controlled airspace, tall structures — can add a few days, and we flag that in the quote. Rules differ by country and site, so we check them fresh for every job.
We do not fly outside our wind, visibility and rain limits — the data would not be good enough. If your window is scrubbed, we agree the next safe window with you and hold your slot for 14 days. Rescheduling for weather costs nothing extra.
You do. The footage, maps and reports we deliver are yours to use, share and archive; the exact terms are set out in your quote. We keep a working copy for 30 days in case you need a re-export, then delete it unless you ask us to keep it.
Every pilot holds remote pilot certification and flies under an approved operations manual. All operations carry public liability insurance up to £2m. Certificates are sent with every quote.
We are based in [your city / region] and routinely fly anywhere within 150 km. Beyond that we travel by arrangement — long-range and multi-site jobs are quoted separately.
