Creative use of a Drone?
Hey BP!
I earned my Private Pilot Certificate about a year and a half ago. Shortly after that I took the test for the Part 107 Certificate (Drone Pilot) since I had already amassed quite a bit of knowledge on airspace, regs, etc.
While I know aerial photography and videography is pretty common in commercial/residential real estate, I'm exploring new (possibly unsaturated) markets for something like that. So far I see some potential in insurance claims (hurricane damage/roof damage/flooding), undeveloped land (mapping/surveying), and construction sites?
With the massive amount of knowledge and experience on here, where do you think there is potential to provide value as a drone pilot?

Hi josh,
As a side business for a few extra dollars probably, but I doubt you could support yourself with it.
Maybe ask some local multi-family pre-purchase inspection services if they have a need for roof and chimney inspection videos on large complexes.
Good Luck!
