We Care About Drone Safety
Safety is the most important aspect of any drone flight. This technology can be very dangerous in an amateurs hands and pays to hire a licenced, insured UAV professional. All of Birds Eye Medias pilots have certification issued by the Civil Aviation Authority of Australia and operate under a UOC, which is a licence for a business to legally conduct drone operations.
Prior to each flight we need to check if the location you would like to shoot is in a controlled or un-controlled air space, if we can safety take off and land, maintain visual line of sight, not fly above 400ft with out an area approval, not fly closer than 5.5km to any airport or helicopter pad with out approval from CASA, not fly closer that 15m to any people or fly over crowds and heavily populated areas.
