Happy Birthday!
It's our 3rd birthday this weekend! Since our humble beginnings back in 2015 we have successfully completed hundreds of flight operations for numerous clients across the UK.

Have a look at what we've been up to over the past couple of years in the video below. Shot with our DJI Inspire Pro and DJI S1000 UAV. Do you recognise any of the locations? #OffT

3D Modelling with UAV
One of the major applications of UAV is the mapping and surveying of land and buildings. Using a process known as Photogrammetry our UAV take a series of overlapping photos which when processed, can be made into a highly accurate 3D model. We were recently asked by, Cinesite Studios, to create a 3D model of over 150 hectares of Dinorwig Quarry. The model will be used in an upcoming feature film due to for release in 2018.

Power Company Sends Fire-Spewing Drone to Burn Trash Off High-Voltage Wires
What happens when your power lines get all kinds of trash hanging from them and it’s not safe to send up a human? In Xiangyang, China, you send in the drones. Specifically, the drones that shoot fire. Just in case you were worried that the robot uprising was delayed, fear no more. It appears to be right on time, as these fire-spewing drones are sent to burn off trash that gets stuck on high-voltage wires. The drones are being used by an electric power maintenance company in C

Drone in the super bowl could clear the skies for drone pilots in 2017
The super bowl has always been a staple of American culture during the cold winter. Albeit, this year marks a leap forward in entertainment technology. The largest football game of the year has brought Friends together, 7 layer dip and chips together, and this year… hundreds of drones will come together, just to entertain you. While the FAA has taken multiple steps to ensure the safety of thousands, this display could easily open up the skies for drones pilots around the worl

Meet the inhabitants of Anglesey from over a 1000 years ago!
We were asked by Alun Griffiths Contractors to document the excavation of the archaeological site. At least 48 graves have now been discovered, some containing the remains of more than one person and it is thought that these date back to early medieval times, 1,500 years ago. Brython Archaeology, working on behalf of Griffiths, hope that DNA techniques will be used to discover whether those buried are related to current Llangefni residents. #Archaeology #History #Bones #drone

Work Begins On New Eco Park & Energy Centre in Holyhead
Work got underway this week at the old Anglesey Aluminium site in Holyhead in preparation for the new Bio Mass energy generator being built by Orthios.

The site is completely off limits to the public for obvious safety reasons while the demolition takes place, but here's a sneaky peak of the site we took with our drone before too mu

Unmanned Experts Helps Companies and Communities Plan Life Extensions and Re-Openings for Critical B
Ottawa, IL – The sounds one hears any day around the Ottawa Lift Bridge in Illinois have not changed for more than a century. The Illinois River rushing underneath. The horns of passing barges. The rhythmic “clunk clunk” of freight trains slowly crossing the iron railroad bridge. But recently that timeless medley was interrupted by a new sound: the methodical hum of unmanned aerial vehicles, flying in precise patterns around the classic structure. The 19th century bridge was

DJI drones gain geo-fencing safety feature opt-out
The bestselling drone-maker has updated its app to let owners bypass a feature that stops its aircraft flying into or taking off in sensitive locations. DJI introduced geo-fencing in 2013 - a technology that uses GPS location signals to stop its machines flying close to airports, professional sports events and other restricted zones. The opt-out allows operators to disable the ban in many, but not all, cases. The Chinese firm says it will keep a record of those who use the fe
