A Day as a Drone Operator

Every flight starts before I leave the house. I check the airspace for restrictions around airports and events, get authorisation where it's needed, check the weather and wind, and plan the flight, because I fly commercially under a remote pilot licence and the rules are specific. Most of my work is real estate photos and video, construction progress documentation, roof and property inspections, and events. On site I do a safety check of the aircraft and batteries, walk the area for obstacles and people, and brief anyone nearby. Real estate shoots are quick: aerial photos and a short video showing the house and neighbourhood. Inspections are more technical: systematic photos of a roof or structure so the client can see damage without anyone climbing up. Construction sites want the same shots on a schedule to show progress. Back at the desk, editing takes longer than the flight: colour correction, stitching panoramas, and processing mapping data for surveys. I carry liability insurance, keep flight logs, and deliver through an online gallery.

That is the work Nexa is built around: the job, the client, the hours and the invoice live in one place, so the paperwork side of the day doesn't need a second shift.

Tools Drone Operators Already Own

How we put this guide together

We build a drone operator's guide the same way every time, and we'd rather you trust it than take it on faith. Nexa is our product, so the test we hold ourselves to is simple: a tool only "wins" a job here when it genuinely does that job better for a drone operator — and where something free, open-source, or buy-once does it better, we say so and link you to it. Where Nexa falls short (payroll is the honest example), we name the alternative outright.

Where the numbers come from

Found something out of date? Prices change and we don't catch every move the day it happens. This guide is published and maintained by the Nexa team; if a figure here is wrong, tell us and we'll fix it — getting it right matters more to us than the sale.
