Real Estate Drone Photo Shoot in Real Time

In this video we take a look at a real estate drone photo shoot in real time. I did a drone shoot recently and decided to record it and make a video out of it in order to give some insight on how I go through the motions of doing a drone photo shoot from take off to landing. I hope you find it helpful!

Frequently Asked Questions

How much money do drone photographers make?

A photographer makes more than $10k per gig depending on how long he/she flies for and where he/she shoots. For those who shoot in remote locations such as forests and national parks, the hourly rate could be between $20-30.

Retail workers make $15-25 an hour, so you could easily earn $50-$75 flying drones. However, there are also plenty of opportunities to earn even more. Drone pilots often fly for companies that require them cross-country or international travel.

It is possible to charge $100 to $300 per flight depending on how many miles you cover and how much time you spent flying. You might find it worthwhile if flying is something you enjoy and you also love taking photos.

Which drone do you recommend for beginners?

These drones are great for beginners as they don't require any advanced skills. These include drones equipped with an FPV (first-person view) camera, allowing users to control the drone via a smartphone app remotely.

Quadcopters can be used for aerial photography. You might consider a multirotor model if you plan to explore more advanced features, like autonomous flight mode and obstacle avoidance.

There are two types: the cheap drones that cost less than $100 and the more expensive drones that cost over $300.

The cheapest models tend to have a limited range, battery life, and flight time. The more expensive models feature greater performance and longer flight durations.

Many beginners prefer to buy cheaper models because they are easier for them to handle and to learn how to use. If you intend to fly your drone for hours, however, you might consider buying a more expensive model.

How to fly my drone?

Practice is key to flying a drone. Drones are more stable than regular aircraft but it takes practice to become proficient. Practice indoors or at home is the best option for beginners.

To fly a drone you will need to have three fundamental skills. These are hovering, takingoff, and landing.

Take Off

You simply lift the drone up into the air by taking off. The button on the controller should be pressed until the drone moves upward. Once the drone reaches a certain height, stop pushing the button.

Hovering

Hovering allows the drone to stay in mid-air. To hover, press and hold the left or the right triggers. You can move the drone by tilting the controller by holding down both triggers.

Landing

Landing is the act of returning the drone safely to earth. To land, release the throttle. Then tilt the controller toward the ground. This will cause the drone's speed to drop and eventually land.

If you feel comfortable flying your drone, take it out of the house. But be careful not to crash into anything.

Statistics

• Again, no stabilization is applied, and the 50% throttle stick position cuts the power to the motors. (photographypro.com)
• Compared to the old days of the Phantom, this drone is super small, but it will likely require you to check a bag, the way a Mini 3 Pro could easily stow away in an oversized pocket. (thedronegirl.com)
• Here's proof: according to an analysis of FAA drone registration numbers by drone market research and data group Drone Industry Insights, DJI had a 76.8% market share in the U.S. (thedronegirl.com)
• Though the Mavic 3 is about 50% heavier than the Mavic Air 2, it's still conveniently sized. (nytimes.com)
• Greater than 50% throttle stick position generates positive thrust, but less than 50% throttle stick position reverses the direction of the motors, allowing upside-down flying! (photographypro.com)

How To

What is a good distance for a drone?

The best distance for a drone to travel is when it becomes an extension or part of you. When you become aware of the drone as a separate entity, you lose sight of its physical boundaries.

For drones, a good distance allows you to fully immerse your self in the environment without having to worry about where the drone is going next.

The psychological benefit of flying close to ground is also evident. Flying close to the ground gives you a greater sense of control and makes it easier to feel connected to nature.

There are downsides, however. The drone could be damaged if it is flying too close to the ground. How far can you fly from the ground?

It all depends on the drone that you are flying. It is a good idea to maintain a minimum of 500 feet above the ground when you are trying to capture aerial footage.

You might choose to film a cityscape at 1,000 feet, for instance. This allows you to avoid blocking your view by trees and other buildings.

Low-light conditions are a problem for drones. Lowering the altitude can help reduce hover time in dark conditions.

Also, make sure that there is no obstruction such as traffic signs, power lines, or tall buildings in the area you're flying.

You might also consider flying during the daylight rather than at night. This will help you avoid reflections from street lights and shadows.

The drone's size is another important consideration. The further it is from the ground the bigger the drone. For example, a large quadcopter usually requires a minimum height of 300 feet.

The golden hour is the best time to capture drone footage.

This is between 3 and 6 p.m. During this time, you have maximum visibility due to direct overhead sunlight.

It is also known for its "magic hour", which is perfect for capturing stunning images.

You should not fly your drone between sunset and sunrise. These times can cause poor-quality footage.
