Airdrone Ltd are UAS specialists delivering aerial inspection, survey and media services to industrial, renewables and commercial clients across the UK and Europe.
Airdrone is a small team of professional UAS pilots based in Irvine, Scotland. We do five things: inspection, survey, aerial media, event coverage and renewables work — all to a CAA-approved operations manual, all with full insurance, all delivered by a flight crew that has been on the ground long before take-off.
From a single roof inspection to a multi-day offshore wind campaign. Every job is planned to our CAA-approved Operations Manual and carries full commercial drone insurance as standard.
Close-flight visual and thermal inspection for industrial, renewables and infrastructure clients.
Topographical maps, 3D models, sub-centimetre orthophotos.
4K stills and film for marketing, press and full production.
Festivals, weddings, car shows. Night ops where required.
Solar farm condition surveys and offshore wind close-flight.
Our equipment, approvals and methods support a wide range of work — from a half-day roof check to a full topographical survey with ground control.
High-resolution imagery of roofs, chimneys, facades and difficult-access structures.
Identify moisture entrapment, heat loss and electrical faults across roofs and plant.
Dense point clouds and textured mesh ready for planning, design and BIM workflows.
RTK-grounded photogrammetry to sub-centimetre accuracy, deliverables in your CAD workflow.
Cinematic aerial film with full colour grade. Ground crew on request for end-to-end production.
Recurring aerial visits across the life of a construction project, bundled deliverables.
Telecoms LoS and Rights of Light studies with line-of-sight visualisation.
Aerial review of bunds, tanks, drainage and outfalls on industrial sites.
Hard numbers behind every flight — the approvals, accuracy and ceilings that mean we can quote confidently and deliver consistently.
From offshore wind to local high streets, planning consultations to live events. We tailor each operation to the sector's regulatory and safety expectations.
A small selection of recent flights — paper mills, demolitions, river estuaries, golf courses, town centres. All captured by Airdrone, all original imagery.
Drag, scroll, explore. Captured from altitude with a stitched panoramic camera, our 360° imagery lets clients and visitors walk a site without setting foot on it.
Equirectangular panoramas captured from above and delivered as a hosted, embeddable viewer for your website or planning submission.
A 360° over Stanecastle Roundabout, Irvine. Useful for transport planning, road-safety reviews and infrastructure consultations — the full junction visible in a single immersive frame.
Every flight starts long before take-off. We share our risk assessment, method statement and ops plan before we arrive — and stay accountable to it on site.
A short call. We listen, propose a plan, agree deliverables and turnaround.
Site-specific RAMS, NOTAM & airspace check, equipment loadout.
Pre-flight checks, two-pilot ops where needed, full ground-side comms.
Edited stills, graded video and survey deliverables. Typically inside 24 hours.
