5 Reasons to Hire a Drone Pilot

5 Reasons to Hire a Drone Pilot

We’ve all heard the unmistakable sound of a drone due to its increasing popularity over the last few years.

And while videography and photography is fast becoming a common past time for technology enthusiasts, there is now a growing demand for experts called Drone Pilots, in a bid to capture the unimaginable.

Why? Quote 4 Drones hear you ask. Well, here’s why:

1) Experience

You wouldn’t entrust your next door neighbour to fly you to your holiday destination, and so the same can be said for hiring a professional – a Drone Pilot. Not only will they provide you with high quality content, they will also be armed with the knowledge of specific equipment that is right for the job. This includes having the correct camera lens, knowing what data the drone will provide and whether or not this is sufficient for your requirements.

2) Professional

All Drone Pilot’s have to adhere to professional standards in order to maintain a good reputation. This includes analysing and planning before starting a project, in order to complete their job to a high standard.

3) CAA licenced

A Drone Pilot, who is CAA registered and has a licence, has spent time learning the laws and regulations established by the Civil Aviation Authority. This involves training, assessment, and exams, to insure they know where and how high they can legally fly.  They will also know how to gain permission to fly in different locations.

4)  Insured

Licenced Drone Pilots who operate commercially are insured to protect their business, themselves and others while a drone is in operation. In the rare situation that an accident occurs, a Drone Pilot’s insurance will cover any damages or accidents. If a pilot is not insured, the client may be liable for any injuries. It is recommended you always check what kind of insurance the pilot has.

5) Safety

A Drone Pilot’s priority is to make sure everyone is safe. Varying factors including weather and temperature will affect their ability to fly a drone safely. A licenced Drone Pilot will take this into consideration when taking on a job.
