We were anxious to share our new home with family and friends both near and far but couldn’t invite them to see it. So we asked JoDan to produce a video tour of the home; inside and out. It was beautifully produced, showing not only the home close-up but, through drone technology, was able to show some of the scenic features of the surrounding area as well.

Concerned about where you can fly, and being in restricted airspace? Most of today’s drones use GPS systems that will alert pilots to their specific launch airspace classification. LAANC (Low Altitude Authorization and Notification Capability) opens the door to flying safely at far more locations. Reach out to us for more information about LAANC and FAA Waivers!
