How It Works

Drone services without the guesswork.

Tell us what you need captured, where the property is, and how you'll use the footage. We handle the flight planning, aerial capture, editing, and delivery.

1

Tell us about the project

Send the location, what you want photographed or filmed, and how the final content will be used. Not sure? We'll help define the shot list.

2

We plan the flight

We review location, airspace, weather, safety, and any FAA authorization. Commercial flights are flown by an FAA Part 107 certified pilot.

3

We capture it

We schedule for the right conditions and capture the agreed photos and video — a single visit or recurring flights to document change over time.

4

You get publish-ready files

Photos are professionally processed and video gets basic editing, so your files are ready for web, social, presentations, and marketing.

What It Costs

Most shoots start at $650.

Professional drone capture, basic editing, and publish-ready files — with a clear quote before we ever schedule a flight.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you serve the Kansas City area?
Yes. Stingray Scout is based in Kearney, MO and provides drone services across the greater Kansas City metro on both the Missouri and Kansas sides — including Kansas City, Liberty, Gladstone, Smithville, Parkville, Overland Park, Olathe, Lenexa and surrounding communities. Projects that require significant travel can be quoted with travel included.
What kinds of projects do you shoot?
Aerial photography and video for businesses, commercial properties, churches, golf courses, municipalities, parks, real estate, construction projects, events, and other organizations that need a better view from above.
How much does a drone photo and video shoot cost?
Most aerial photography and video shoots start at $650, including professional drone capture, some editing, and publish-ready files. Larger, recurring, night, travel-intensive, or editing-intensive projects are quoted individually.
What's included in the $650 starting price?
A typical project includes flight planning, aerial photo and video capture, professional photo processing, basic video editing, and digital delivery of publish-ready files. The exact number of photos, amount of video, and deliverables are defined in your project quote.
Do you provide video editing?
Yes. Basic editing can be included with a standard photo and video shoot, and we can provide more extensive editing for website videos, social content, promotional pieces, and highlight reels. Larger editing projects are quoted separately.
Can you fly at night?
Yes, when the operation can be conducted legally and safely. Night flights require additional planning, equipment, and operating considerations, so they may be priced separately.
Can you fly near an airport?
Potentially. Some locations require FAA airspace authorization before a flight. We evaluate the location and determine what authorization is required before scheduling.
Are you FAA certified?
Yes. Commercial drone operations are conducted under FAA Part 107 requirements by a certified remote pilot.
How far do you travel?
Stingray Scout is based in the Kansas City area and serves projects throughout the region. Projects requiring significant travel can be quoted with travel costs included.
What happens if the weather is bad?
Safety and image quality come first. If wind, rain, visibility, or other conditions make the flight unsafe or likely to produce poor results, we'll work with you to reschedule.
How quickly will I receive my files?
Turnaround depends on the project and the amount of editing involved. We'll establish the expected delivery date in the quote before the project begins.
Can you photograph the same location over time?
Yes. Recurring flights work well for construction progress, property documentation, seasonal changes, maintenance, renovations, and before-and-after comparisons. We can reproduce similar viewpoints across visits so changes are easier to see.
Can I use the photos and videos on my website and social media?
Yes. Usage rights are defined in your quote, including the intended marketing and promotional uses.
Can you capture both photos and video during the same project?
Yes. Most projects combine aerial photography and video in the same shoot, giving you a library of content for websites, social media, presentations, advertising, and other channels.
What do you need from me to get a quote?
Usually four things: the property or project location, what you want photographed or filmed, how you plan to use the finished content, and when you need it. From there we'll determine flight requirements, recommend scope, and provide a quote.
