Construction Drone Filming in DA1

Professional construction drone filming in DA1, delivered by pilots who work London's restricted airspace every week.

Recent Work

Selected work from across London and the Thames.

We know the airspace picture over DA1 before we quote on it. Sites vary from tight residential streets to large commercial and industrial plots. Access constraints in DA1 are worth telling us about early, because they change the plan.

Whether the DA1 material ends up in a brochure or a report changes how we shoot it. Traffic, pedestrians and overhead services in DA1 shape the plan as much as the regulations do. Sites across Dartford get the same crews and the same standards as DA1.

Each DA1 job is planned around the site itself: access, take-off points, overflight and people on the ground. We capture in RAW throughout, so there is headroom left in the grade or the processing. Our risk assessments are written to be read, not to tick a box.

Permissions, insurance and the risk assessment are all available before the flight rather than after it. File formats are agreed up front so nothing needs converting later. Questions get answered by someone who has actually flown the site.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you fly indoors or in enclosed spaces?

Yes, with sub-250g aircraft and appropriate planning. Enclosed and confined spaces need their own risk assessment and often a different platform, so tell us about the environment early and we will confirm what is workable.

Are you CAA approved?

Yes. UAS London is fully CAA approved with enhanced permissions for commercial drone operations in built-up areas. We carry £10M public liability insurance.

What happens if the weather is bad on the day?

We monitor forecasts in the days before the flight and will tell you early if it looks marginal. If conditions make the flight unsafe we rebook the next clear window at no extra cost.
