It is with great pleasure, that we at SNAPePHOTO, announce the purchase of our first UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle), in the form of a Quadcopter/Drone, for the sole purpose of capturing digital still images and video footage. That being said, we carefully selected the unit that provided the best all-around options, for what we wanted to achieve.
In order to be exempt from Transport Canada's rigorous regulations, a UAV must have a take-off weight of less than 2.0kg. Ours weighs in at a mere 1.3kg, leaving us room to spare for a few options, like a retractable landing gear. Yes, once the image/video quality aspect covered, it did play in the decision-making factor of what unit to select. More information on the regulations surrounding the piloting an UAV, governed by Transport Canada, can be seen HERE and the Exemption Requirement details HERE

With the addition of our new state-of-the-Art unit, we're
looking to provide aerial services in both photo & video formats.
We'll be offering views otherwise impossible, or highly improbable.
Whether
it be during a festival, outdoor sports, cultural event, a private
party, wedding, or even real estate, we'll be glad to help gain the
added visibility and assist you in showcasing the desired results.
Think of the possibilities & exposure this type of imagery could provide you, and your project...
Once several projects completed, we'll be posting a few examples on our website, as well as on the SkyPixel Quadcopter community site.
