Frequently asked questions
We’ve worked very hard to produce a robust set of procedures and operating methods inline with Civil Aviation Authority legislation and guidance. We hold the required permission issued by the CAA which will usually be recognised in other countries outside of the UK. Naturally we also hold the necessary insurance to perform drone light shows.
Our drones are all designed and manufactured in house and have been built using the worlds leading components. We’ve used motors that are water resistant and designed to be submerged in water and still work afterwards. We can fly in rain as long as it is not heavy.
In order to produce a swarming light display a NOTAM must be in place and applied for with the CAA. This warns aircraft of the event. 28 days notice is usually required but please do contact us if time is less than this.
It is important that the local police are informed as a matter of courtesy. The attention a light show can cause will result in local people wondering what is happening!
We design the show chorography in 3D animation software. It is part of our service to provide a visual animation as a video and / or photographs.
We are able to provide fireworks, lasers and PA all in house as part of the service. We can also provide filming and licensed drone photography.
It depends on the height of the swarm. But as a rough guide we’ll need at least 50 – 75 metres of sterile ground that we have complete control of. This must be kept secure at all times. We also require sterile ground underneath the swarm.
Get in touch with us by email or phone in the first instance. We’ll then listen to your requirements and come up with some suggestions and ideas. You’ll find us a friendly team of professional people happy to go the extra mile.
