Heavy lifting · FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

How much can the drone lift?

The advertised maximum is 65 kg per lift. The safe payload for a particular job depends on the load, rigging, route and conditions, which we assess before confirming a lift.

What can you move?

We assess materials, tools and equipment that fit within the payload and can be safely secured. Send dimensions, weight, pickup point and destination so we can review the route.

Can you lift over people or an active work area?

We plan a controlled flight path and exclusion zones around the pickup, route and set-down area. We will only proceed when the site can support a safe lift plan.

How is an aerial lift priced?

We quote from the load details, number of lifts, site access, rigging, flight route and safety requirements. The scope explains what is included before mobilisation.
