Drone Filming in EC4Y

If your site falls in EC4Y, our drone filming team can plan and fly it under existing CAA permissions. Briefs range from a single set of stills through to full production support. We will say plainly if a drone is the wrong tool for what you are trying to show.

Height changes what the site communicates: context, scale and progress all read differently. Local access, not airspace, is often the real constraint on work in EC4Y. We work the whole of East Central London, so EC4Y is rarely a standalone trip.

Every flight in EC4Y starts with an airspace check and a written risk assessment. Payload choice follows the deliverable, whether that is a frame or a measurement. We fly the plan that was agreed, and flag it if the site has changed since.

Where a landowner, managing agent or council needs sight of our paperwork, we provide it up front. Ask for the EC4Y brief to be quoted with and without editing if that helps you compare. The same pilot who plans the EC4Y job is usually the one who flies it.

The river edge of EC4Y is a different operating problem to the streets behind it. Tides move the working surface, vessels move through the shot, and the Port of London Authority needs telling in advance. All three are routine parts of our planning here.
