Bot or Not?
A robot makes sense when…
- The job is high, dangerous, or hard to reach
- It is huge or repetitive (acres, nights, square metres)
- You need data you will compare over time
- You need eyes on it right now
Hire a human when…
- It is small, low and one-off
- It needs hands, judgement or a repair
- Weather, permits or timing make robots awkward
- Nobody has defined the job yet
Here's the catch for this job
- Ask for proof of pilot certification and liability insurance (often $1M+).
- Agree on deliverables, resolution and turnaround before flight day.
- Weather days are common; clarify reschedule terms.

What to specify and ask
Put these in your request and you'll get a real price instead of "it depends":
- Span lengths and terrain the pilot line must cross
- Line voltage and whether adjacent circuits stay energised

- Area size (acres/hectares) or number of structures
- Deliverables (photos, video, orthomosaic, 3D model, report)
- File formats and turnaround time
