Description: These drones have an attached gimbal that uses a mechanical system to stabilize the footage, minimizing the impact of wind and sudden movements.
Applications: Produces smooth, cinematic footage for feature films, TV, commercials, and documentaries. They are typically used for establishing and tracking shots.
Pros: They offer 8K+ recording in ProRes RAW and CinemaDNG, delivering smooth, stable, and cinematic footage with extended flight times of 20-45 minutes with a strong emphasis on safety and long range.
Cons: While gimbal drones provide smooth and stable footage, they are less capable of dynamic and acrobatic movements, limiting their ability to capture high-energy or fast-paced shots compared to FPV drones.
Description: A FPV drone is a highly agile and immersive drone designed for capturing fast-paced, dynamic shots.
Applications: FPV drones are perfect for capturing high-energy, dynamic shots in TV, commercials, films, and documentaries. With the ability to fly at high speeds and navigate tight spaces, they deliver unique perspectives and adrenaline-pumping visuals, making it ideal for action sequences.
Pros: They can achieve complex, long one-take sequences and navigate tight spaces or complicated environments unreachable by traditional cable cams, offering unmatched creative possibilities.
Cons: FPV drones have limitations, including a low flight time of 2-5 minutes and a shorter range compared to other drones, requiring frequent battery changes and careful coordination between us and production.
