Can drones now be used within buildings safely?

How many times have you been privy to conversations between a parent and their child where the child is being told off for playing with a remote-control aeroplane indoors?

Well initially the same thought crossed our minds when looking into drones being flown within a building. But after a few searches, it seems as though this process isn’t as risky as once thought.

Taking ariel shots of interiors within buildings opens an array of business opportunities for many including estate agents.

But unless you are a seasoned drone pilot you should not even entertain the thought of carry this out yourself.

One issue that drone pilots need to consider it’s magnetic interference, this can cause flyaway and accidents. But one way around this is to turn off sensors, remove obstacles and visual positioning. Another important factor is to turn off the GPS as this will result in a flyaway situation.

But not all indoor environments pose the same problems, so drone pilots will take this on board. In a home, a drone pilot will have to take into account walls, furniture and ceilings. However, in a larger environment such as an arena or factory, a drone pilot will more than likely be concerned about magnetic interference from the steel housed within it.

One of the most suitable drones is the Phantom Series as it can fly in Attitude mode, so you can turn the GPS off.

So, there you go, get hiring!
