That sounds super cool. I’ve got some friends that have had a studio for years and they do all kinds of stuff. Promo videos for universities, commercials, events. I bet if you put it out there, there’s a market for it. I’ve seen the higher end real estate companies do flyover videos too. That kind of thing you could probably have a few queued up a day.
It was honestly super-fun. Loved getting out in the field with my partner in crime to fly. Hmm may have to do a little more digging. I literally have all the pieces of the puzzle: LLC, drone, insurance, experience, etc. Just have to find the right way to break into the market. I thought I had a lead on doing tower inspections around the state but that ended up falling through. :( Cheers!
Oof, what a bummer! A city contract like that sounds like it could be steady. You could go super niche. Make fun videos for a YouTube channel lol.
Yeah it would have been guaranteed, high-paying work forever as long as I kept up the quality. All towers need to be inspected regularly. I thought about that but I'm not even slightly creative and wouldn't even know where to begin.
