Two pilots.One coastline.
Most drone operations are one person with one aircraft. We're two FAA Part 107 certified pilots with two aircraft, which is what makes multi-angle coverage and FPV work possible at all.
Owner / Lead Pilot
Ben Beebe
FAA Part 107 certified. Ben runs operations across both sides of the business — the action sports work and the property side. Based in Oceanside, shooting the North County coastline he grew up on. Flies the DJI Mini 5 Pro.

Pilot / Cinematic Videographer
Brendan Cruz
FAA Part 107 certified. Brendan is the cinematic eye on the team — he works the look and feel of a shot rather than just its coverage. A second certified pilot behind a second camera is what makes real multi-angle work possible: one operator tracking the subject, one working the angle that makes the clip.

actually
flying.
Manufacturer figures, not estimates. Rated flight times are lab numbers — coastal wind, cold mornings and aggressive tracking all take a bite out of them, which is why we quote air time as “up to”.

The Avata 360 is flown first-person through goggles, and the rules require someone watching the aircraft and its surroundings the whole time. A solo operator either skips FPV or brings a friend. We don't have that problem.
Come fly with us.
Book a session by the battery, or send over a property and we'll scope it.
