A drone light show is a captivating aerial display that utilizes a fleet of drones, each fitted with brilliant LED lights, to create mesmerizing patterns, shapes, and animations in the sky. These shows serve as a contemporary alternative to traditional fireworks displays, offering a unique, customizable, and eco-friendly form of entertainment.

Drone shows function by programming a fleet of drones to follow specific flight paths and exhibit various colors and patterns with their onboard LED lights. The drones are controlled by a central computer system that synchronizes their movements, ensuring they maintain a safe distance from one another while crafting an awe-inspiring visual performance.

The process of creating a drone light show involves several stages, from concept development and show design to programming, rehearsals, and the final performance. Each stage requires meticulous planning and coordination between various team members to ensure a successful and safe show.

Drone shows can be flown in various locations, including outdoor venues such as parks, stadiums, and waterfronts, as well as suitable indoor spaces. The key is to ensure adequate space and safety measures are in place and to obtain necessary permits and approvals from relevant authorities.

The drones need to be at least five feet apart before takeoff. So, for 100 drones, you would need at least 2500 square feet.

We also need to have ample space between the drones and the audience. Drones are not allowed to fly over people, so we recommend one foot of horizontal separation for every foot of altitude. So, if the drones fly to 400 feet, then the audience needs to be a minimum of 400 feet away from the takeoff space.

Even though an impressive drone light show can be done with a mere 50 drones, we recommend at least 100 drones to make a truly memorable experience. Some designs and ideas will take hundreds of drones, while others may only take several dozen. We can work directly with you to determine what you need for your show.

Our drones can fly for up to 15 minutes depending on design and complexity of the show. We have found that audiences prefer shows between 8-12 minutes long.

This depends largely on the size of the show and how many drones are needed, but usually only 1-2 hours.

Prices can vary significantly based on how many drones you want, what kind of designs and their complexity, etc. For this, we recommend you contact us directly at 917-251-8015 to get a free quote.

Yes, we have a comprehensive aviation liability insurance policy covering anything bad that may happen, however unlikely it may be.

We are one of the few companies in the USA that has permission to fly drone swarms. We have Part 107 pilots, trained ground crew and exceptional drone hardware and software that ensures the show is safe and spectacular. We operate under a Part 107.35 waiver issued by the FAA and work with local and governmental authorities before and during every show to ensure the safety and legality of every show.

We cannot fly in heavy rain. A light rain may delay us, but we do have certain restrictions related to visibility for safety purposes.

We can fly in moderate to high winds. Our typical thresholds are over 20mph sustained and/or gusting over 30mph. Winds are very difficult to predict, and this is a judgement call made by the pilot on site at the time of flight.

We must follow all FAA guidelines regarding weather for UAV flight, including visibility range and cloud height.

Regardless of the weather, we will always work with event management to choose the best course of action. If any issues arise, we will de-conflict as early as possible.

We can fly up to 400 feet above ground level.
