At Drone Scotland, we are strong believers in using the right tool for the right job. Hence, why we stock a wide variety of tools to help ensure that we can cater for a wide range of requirements. These requirements are probably best broken down to three categories:

  • Survey
  • Inspect
  • Media

Within each category there is a wide variety of more specific requirements – each will have it’s own set of deliverables. Therefore, we are constantly expanding our kit both in terms of hardware and software. The following is a breakdown of our primary equipment

Our equipment includes:

  1. Matrice M300 RTK including H20 (hybrid zoom inspection lens), P1 (45MP survey lens), L1 (LiDAR) & L2 (LiDAR) – industrial spec
  2. Phantom 4 RTK – 20MP mechanical shutter survey grade quadcopter
  3. Mavic 3 RTK Enterprise Multispectral – 20MP mechanical shutter survey drone with 4 multispectral sensors

  11. Mini 4 – sub 250g drone with 48 MP lens – a high quality lightweight drone for shooting in difficult locations such as congested areas
  12. Phantom 4 – our first and original drone which doesn’t get much airtime now compared to our more advanced fleet
  13. DJI Ronin 4D 4-Axis Cinema Camera 6K
  14. Panasonic GH5 – ground based still imagery and video camera with a variety of lenses
  15. Ronin S – handheld gimbal for use with the GH5
  16. Pocket 2 – highly versatile and compact camera that can be attached to people or vehicles

  18. Ground control points – help verify accuracy of RTK surveys
  19. High spec video editing/data crunching PC’s including industry leading software programs

But it’s not all down to the equipment you deploy. The skill of the pilot/camera operator is just as important. When we look for drone pilots to support our business we are interested in talent and not necesarrily the equipment. At Drone Scotland we are constantly learning and upgrading our skills to ensure we can deliver the best service to our clients.
