Drones in New Hampshire


The Granite State

Lovell Lake, NH

New Hampshire is a wonderful state.  Numerous reports have labeled it as one of the best states to live in.  There are many reasons for that, with one of the more prominent reasons being the beauty of the state.  New Hampshire has everything from stunning waterfalls and grand mountains to spectacular marine landscapes.  From the great northern woods to the crashing waves of the Isle of Shoals, there are signs of Mother Nature’s artistry everywhere.  For years, the only way to see these sights from a higher perspective were by hiking to a mountaintop or being a lucky member of the aviation community.  Skyflik can present never-before-seen vistas of the Granite State by using drones in New Hampshire.

 

Crawford Notch

Crawford Notch is a large gorge in the middle of the White Mountains of New Hampshire, positioned almost exclusively in the town of Hart’s Location.  Approximately fifty percent of that town is enclosed in Crawford Notch State Park.  The highest mark of the notch, at approximately 1,900 ft (580 m) above sea level, is at the southerly edge of the town of Carroll, neighboring the Crawford Depot train terminal and Saco Lake, the source of the Saco River, which proceeds southward through the sharp-sided notch.  North of the high point of the notch, Crawford Brook streams more smoothly northwest to the Ammonoosuc River, a branch of the Connecticut River.

The Seacoast Region is the southeast section of New Hampshire that contains the eastern segment of Rockingham County and the southern segment of Strafford County. The domain covers 13 miles (21 km) adjacent the Atlantic Ocean from New Hampshire’s boundary with Massachusetts to the Piscataqua River and New Hampshire’s line with Maine.  The coastline is commonly considerably rocky and rugged in nature, although a small number of sandy beaches have been constructed using seawalls, notably in the towns of Rye and Hampton.  The Seacoast Region spans as distant west as Epping.  Portsmouth, the biggest municipality and lone city in Rockingham County, serves as the cultural and economic focal point of the area.

4 Reasons to Hire a Drone Company For Real Estate Photography

Nobska Light, Falmouth MA

Quality Drones are Expensive

Drones come in all shapes and sizes. From the widely available Parrot Drones that you can get at any electronics store to the high end DJI spreading wings octocopters, there are many choices if you want to get a camera in the sky. As with most things in life, you get what you pay for. Chances are real estate agents and homeowners do not want to spend thousands of dollars on quality platforms and cameras. If you want to hire a drone company for real estate photography, you will save a great deal of money on buying the best gear. A good drone company will have the best equipment for every type of job that they specialize in. They will also have insurance on their equipment, something that is probably not even considered by most real estate agents when flying on their own.

There is an Art to Flying

Not all pilots are created equal. Drone technology is improving almost as rapidly as the mobile phone industry. The problem is keeping up with this technology is difficult and expensive. This also creates a need for training and experience with this emerging field. Our professional drone pilots have spent years perfecting the art of flying and have a special ability to put the camera in the best possible location for the the perfect shot. We will work with you and your “vision” to create a spectacular drone project.

Post Production

Professional drone companies also realize that one of the fastest way to lose customers is to have a poor editing team.  Because of this, SkyFlik has invested a good deal of time improving our editing skills. This is how we provide the “wow” factor when showing off a listing. The ability for the editors to tell a story out of the aerial shots can really improve the likelihood of customers being attracted to the property. See some of Skyflik’s Aerial Video Samples.

It’s Illegal!

You read that correctly. In the United States and many other countries across the world, it is currently illegal to fly drones commercially without the proper exemptions, COAs and registrations. This is by far the biggest issue when it comes to real estate agents piloting drones. Using aerial pictures of anything with the intent to sell falls under the FAA’s “commercial” category. This is why real estate companies should hire an FAA approved drone company for real estate media. Skyflik has acquired all of the FAA required exemptions and COAs. A “Section 333 Exemption” is required to conduct commercial drone operations. Here is SkyFlik’s 333 Exemption. If your property is near an airport there are even more steps that need to be taken in the name of safely flying in the National Airspace System. SkyFlik coordinates with governmental agencies to comply with all safety regulations.
