What is The FPV Experience™, and how is it different from traditional drone video?

The FPV Experience™ is our signature cinematic flythrough service filmed with First-Person-View drones. Unlike standard drone footage, FPV gives viewers a dynamic, “you-are-there” perspective — gliding through rooms, hallways, and open spaces in one continuous take. It feels like a personal tour through your property.

Why are FPV videos ideal for marketing commercial spaces?

Because they capture emotion and energy. FPV flythroughs instantly engage viewers, letting them feel the scale, flow, and design of your space. Businesses use them for property sales, leasing, recruiting, investor presentations, and website marketing — anywhere impact matters.

What kinds of properties or businesses are best suited for an FPV flythrough?

Any environment that benefits from being experienced, not just seen. That includes offices, warehouses, factories, showrooms, retail stores, fitness centers, event spaces, and construction projects nearing completion.

How long does an FPV flythrough take to film and edit?

Most projects take one to two hours on-site and about one week for post-production. Larger or multi-building spaces may require additional filming or lighting time.

What happens during a pre-flight walkthrough or On-Site Flythru Preview?

Before filming, we conduct an On-Site Flythru Preview — a complimentary visit to map the flight path, assess lighting, and discuss visual priorities. It ensures the final video flows perfectly and highlights what matters most to your audience.

Do you need to close the building or stop work during filming?

Not always. If the drone’s path avoids active work areas, filming can continue safely while your team operates as usual. For safety or noise reasons, we may temporarily clear specific sections.

What type of lighting works best for FPV flythroughs?

Even, natural, or well-balanced lighting is ideal. We’ll advise whether to add supplemental lighting or shoot at a certain time of day to get the most flattering look.

How are safety and insurance handled during indoor flights?

We follow strict FAA Part 107 standards and carry full commercial drone insurance. Propeller guards are used for all indoor flights, and safety checks are completed before each take.

What types of videos can be created — marketing, safety, or recruiting?

In addition to marketing tours, FPV footage can be used for company culture videos, safety demonstrations, employee training, and recruiting showcases.

Can you include titles, graphics, or company logos?

Absolutely. We can add titles, overlays, or your logo for branding consistency. Text callouts can also highlight features or key departments.

How are the final videos delivered, and what usage rights come with them?

Final videos are delivered via Dropbox in both 1080p and 4K formats. Clients receive non-exclusive rights to all delivered media, with the producer’s logo appearing on finished versions. Logo-free or exclusive rights are available at a higher price.

What’s the typical investment for an FPV Experience project?

Pricing varies based on property size, complexity, and editing requirements. Most projects fall between $750 – $1,500 for single-location shoots. Custom quotes are provided after your On-Site Flythru Preview.

How much pilot skill is required for indoor FPV filming?

FPV indoor flight requires advanced piloting skill and spatial awareness. Our pilots are highly trained and experienced in confined-space operations.

What are the biggest challenges of indoor FPV filming?

Maintaining smooth motion in tight spaces, managing light changes, and ensuring safety. Experience and preparation make all the difference.

What makes FPV footage different from 360-degree or Matterport tours?

360 tours let viewers click and drag to look around. FPV flythroughs let them move through the space — fast, fluid, and cinematic. It’s not just visual — it’s emotional.

Can you fly FPV drones through tight spaces or doorways?

Yes. Our drones are small and agile enough to pass through tight hallways, stairways, and standard door frames, creating a continuous, uninterrupted visual experience.

Photography experience is vital for composition, lighting, technical camera control, smooth piloting, and post-production. With 50 years of professional experience, we excel in all of these areas to create compelling and technically excellent visuals.

How do you price a project?

Projects may be priced by hourly rate, day rate, per-project flat fee, or service packages. Licensing fees may apply for certain commercial uses. The most common model is a per-project price based on complexity, footage needed, and editing time.

How do you evaluate the airspace over my property and any restrictions that might apply?

We check FAA airspace maps, NOTAMs, airspace apps, and contact local ATC when needed. This allows us to identify controlled airspace, altitude limits, and temporary restrictions to ensure safe, legal operations.

What are the steps in evaluating risk assessment for each flight?

Risk assessment includes site evaluation, airspace review, weather checks, equipment inspection, flight plan creation, and continuous in-flight monitoring. This ensures safe, compliant, and efficient operations at every location.

Why are weather conditions so important to conducting a successful flight?

Weather affects safety, visibility, lighting, composition, and post-production. High winds, precipitation, fog, or harsh light can reduce safety or visual quality. Monitoring weather ensures the best results and safe operation.

How do you ensure the quality of the footage while complying with FAA regulations and airspace restrictions?

We maintain FAA Part 107 certification, check weather, obtain necessary authorizations, follow FAA rules, use high-quality calibrated cameras, fly smoothly, and review all footage carefully. Editing enhances clarity and presentation.

What is the procedure for rescheduling the drone operation due to weather or other issues that may arise?

We monitor weather in the days before your flight and reschedule if conditions do not meet FAA safety requirements. We do not fly in temperatures below 32 degrees or in gusts over 20 mph.

How high can you fly?

FAA regulations allow drone flight up to 400 feet above ground level unless special authorization is granted. We verify all local altitude rules for your specific location.

What are the rules about flying over people?

The FAA requires specific categories of drones and sometimes waivers for flight over people. In most cases, we do not accept projects requiring sustained flight over people for safety and compliance.

My project requires aerial photography and also photos from ground level. Do you provide both?

Yes. Most commercial real estate projects require both aerial and ground photography. With 50 years of photography experience, we provide both interior and exterior ground-level coverage.
