Frequently Asked Questions

Do you need an FAA licence to fly commercially in Orange County?

1

Yes. Any drone flight for business purposes requires an FAA Part 107 certified pilot. We hold Part 107 and carry liability coverage. Newport Beach sits close to John Wayne Airport, so a large share of the best footage is inside controlled airspace and needs LAANC authorisation before the aircraft leaves the ground.

How much does drone video cost in Newport Beach?

2

Aerial-only projects generally run from the low four figures. Most of our drone work is one element inside a larger production, which is quoted as a whole. Every project is priced individually — call (949) 449-4472 for a same-day figure.

How long does a drone shoot take?

3

A single property or vessel is usually a half day on location. Weather and airspace approval drive the schedule more than the flying does, which is why we build both into the plan rather than hoping for a clear morning.

Can you fly over water and near the harbour?

4

Yes. Marine and harbour work is a large part of what we do, and it is the single most common place hobby operators get into trouble. We fly Newport Harbour regularly and plan around traffic, glare and the tide.
