My name is Roger. I live in Abbotts Ann just outside Andover in Hampshire. I am a lifelong radio-controlled models enthusiast starting in the late 1970's with Tamiya 1/10 scale R/C cars, progressing to gliders, fixed wing aeroplanes and then helicopters. I have been flying drones (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles or UAV's) for nearly 10 years.
​
Because I am virtually a one-man operation and semi-retired, (ex-blue light services), my fees are considerably lower than a larger business who have many additional costs to pass on. Staggeringly, it is not uncommon to pay over £600 for a half day and £1000 for a full day.
I operate on a fixed rate basis, depending on the service required.
​
My business model is a simple one which keeps costs down substantially. For all my services, unless post production services are requested, the customer is given a micro-SD card (at no cost) at the end of filming. This micro-SD card contains the photographs and video clips taken by the drone. 
​
This micro-SD card plugs into your computer's USB via a suitable adapter (can be supplied for £10 if you haven't got one) allowing you to view your aerial photographs and video clips instantly. From there, you have choices depending on your wishes. You can print your photos and frame them yourself, or hand the task over to a printing company and get them to print them for you at whatever size and resolution you wish.
For businesses, you could embed them into your own website. The images and videography will belong to you forever after payment.​​​​
