Services
SKYDRONE UAVS
UAV Advantages
-
Decreased equipment and operation costs allow for our services at a fraction of piloted craft inspections
-
Unmanned craft removes the potential for loss of life compared to piloted craft inspection scenarios
-
Zero operational network impact if structural collisions or catastrophic equipment failure occurs
-
Drones perform extreme close-in inspections and close up imagery unlike any piloted craft
-
Electric vehicle eliminates noise impact on livestock and wildlife populations
-
Environmentally friendly, zero emission electrical vehicles
-
Effectively zero habitat impact utilizing aerial vehicles
-
Cost effective aerial spur line and pole inspections
UAV Operations
-
Missions are performed in accordance with ICAO flight standards
-
Only licensed commercial and general aviation pilots operate drones
-
Inspection flight observers are all commercial and general aviation pilots.
-
Vehicles are flight certified, maintained and inspected in compliance with ICAO standards
UAV Field Requirements
-
Most weather conditions are acceptable for flight operations
