About us
We are a team of drone professionals, surveyors, technical specialists and creatives. Some of us come from surveying, others from IT, mechanical engineering, engineering offices, or from design and content. A few have been in the drone business for more than 20 years. What we have in common: daily contact with customers who actually fly. On rooftops, on inspections, on construction sites. That is how we know what works in real life and what only looks good on a spec sheet.Today, we are one of the leading drone retailers in Germany. Still, things here feel the same as on day one: short paths, quick answers, honest advice. We are on a first-name basis, with most of our customers too. B2B does not have to be stiff to be professional. Drones should make your job easier, not more complicated. That is exactly what we are here for.
