Skyhook has exceptional drone kit suitable for every budget
We use top-of-the-range drones, cameras and lenses to ensure we capture the images you require while matching the specific codecs and outputs of your other cameras.
Our kit includes the new DJI Inspire 3 drone with its 8K sensor and incredible low light performance, the revered Inspire 2 with X7 and X5S cameras, FPV (first person view) racing drones for those ‘impossible shots’, the portable and broadcast-ready Mavic 3 Pro Cine, heavy-lift ALTA drones with the capability to lift 360º cameras or large DSLRs with cine lenses, and the tiny Mini 3 Pro for its ability to be flown freely in congested areas without the paperwork that any of its bigger cousins would require.

Planning and compliance for safe, legal drone flights
Skyhook manage all the legal and regulatory aspects of flying a drone at each location to ensure the shoot happens safely and in compliance with the UK Civil Aviation Authority.
Our projects take us across the UK and abroad—from remote Scottish islands to the restricted airspace of central London—and we have procedures to operate safely in congested areas.
Our Approved Supplier status with 1st Option Safety Group is a testament to our safety record. Read more here.
You can trust Skyhook to support your vision or self-direct a shoot
For many of our jobs, we enable the director’s vision to come to life. Our favourite moments are when the director is watching our monitor, exploding with delight at the drone shot which is developing on screen.
We can also work as a small crew and self-direct to a client’s brief.
For certain promotional projects, we can offer an end-to-end production service by shooting, editing and delivering the final piece, all in-house.
