Plan your aerial filming
Start with the location, the views you need, and how the aerial footage will be used. Share reference shots, the proposed date, and your production schedule so we can scope the operator and equipment.
The operator’s experience, credentials, insurance, and the requirements of the filming location all need to be checked for the specific shoot. The guide below explains what to confirm before booking.
Hiring a drone operator: what to confirm
Determine Your Needs
The first step in hiring a drone operator is determining your needs. What do you need the drone for? What type of footage do you want to capture? What are your budget and timeline? Answering these questions will help you identify the right drone operator for your needs.
Research Potential Operators
Once you know what you're looking for, start researching potential drone operators. Look for operators with experience in your industry or with the specific type of footage you need. Check their portfolio and reviews from past clients. You can simply reach out to us and we can do the finding for you!
Request Quotes and Proposals
Once you've identified a few potential operators, request quotes and proposals from each one. Be clear about your needs, budget, and timeline. Compare the proposals and choose the operator who offers the best value for your money. Our platform allows you to compare providers.
Confirm Credentials and Insurance
Before hiring a drone operator, confirm that they have the necessary credentials and insurance. This includes a drone flight certification and liability insurance. Ask for proof of these documents before signing a contract.
What affects the cost?
The cost of hiring a drone operator varies depending on several factors, including:
- The complexity of the job
- The location of the job
- The type of drone used
- The experience and expertise of the operator
Generally, you can expect to pay anywhere from $150 to $500 per hour for drone operation services. However, this cost can vary significantly based on the specific details of your project.

Equipment to fit the brief
