There are more than 30 regulations associated with drone filming, and they affect nearly every aspect of the aerial videography for your shoot. Bring us in before you select a location and we'll make sure that you avoid "no-fly" airspace or that you can plan for the time and extra steps needed to get the proper approvals to fly.
Heli Watch has been designing, building and flying remote controlled aircraft for more than 20 years, so we can expertly recommend and deliver drone videography packages that match any project, regardless of size.
In addition to unmanned systems, we are also experienced in maintaining, repairing and flying private and commercial aircraft -- we approach every flight with the same care and concern as full-size aircraft operations.
Our camera operators bring the same passion to videography, and their extensive knowledge of film means that they speak your language. We can do everything from executing your exact shot as requested, to making on-the-fly adjustments to get the most impactful video for your project.
