FAQ
Common questions about commercial drone operations in Cardiff and what's included in the day rate.
Cardiff Bay is congested airspace. The sub-250g system operates with fewer restrictions in these areas. For heavier drones, I can apply for specific permissions depending on the brief and location within the Bay.
Cardiff Airport's controlled airspace affects parts of the Vale of Glamorgan. I check NOTAM restrictions and coordinate with airport ATC where needed. Most Cardiff city locations sit outside the airport's controlled zone.
Yes. Coastal locations in South Wales are generally open airspace. The Mavic 4 Pro handles coastal wind well, and the FPV systems produce strong footage along cliffs and beaches.
Cardiff city centre is congested airspace. The sub-250g drone gives us more flexibility in these areas. For specific locations or larger drones, I handle the permission applications as part of the booking process.
