Pricing and the Reality of Drone Filming – FPVVIDEO.CZ

Block 1: The Truth About Pricing – Why It’s Okay to Be Open

Introduction – Why People Search for “Drone Pricing”

In the online environment, one of the most common queries related to drones is “how much does drone filming cost.” People are looking for indicative prices, want to compare offers, or simply check whether the service is affordable. Unfortunately, they often encounter incomplete information or unrealistically low prices that do not reflect quality or legal requirements.

Not Afraid to Tell the Truth

At the FPVVIDEO blog, we focus on transparency. We do not want to promise unrealistic prices or create the impression that professional drone video is cheap. On the contrary – we want to explain what influences the price, why it makes sense to invest in quality production, and how to recognize the difference between a cheap offer and a professional service.

What Influences the Price of a Drone Video

The price is not just about “someone showing up with a drone and shooting a few clips.” Many factors contribute to the final cost:

  • Type of drone – FPV drone, DJI Avata 2, DJI Mavic 3 Cine, iFlight FPV 5-inch – each has different capabilities, costs, and output quality.
  • Additional equipment – action cameras, 360° camera, DJI Mic 3 microphones for clean audio.
  • Location – Prague, Central Bohemia, Moravia, Slovakia, or abroad – transport, time, accessibility.
  • Type of property – house, apartment, warehouse, restaurant, hotel, guesthouse, resort – each space requires a different approach.
  • Production and post-production – editing, color grading, audio, export, optimization for web and social media.
  • Legal requirements – permits, insurance, operating costs, A1/A3 and A2 certification according to EASA and the CAA.

Why a €80 Drone Video Is Not a Quality Service

On the market, you can find offers like “drone video for €80.” What do you actually get for that price?

  • Most likely no permits, no insurance, no certification.
  • Footage from an amateur drone, without stabilization or post-production.
  • No quality guarantee, no web optimization, no sound.

Such a video may be usable for personal purposes, but not for company presentation, real estate listings, or marketing content. A professional service must meet technical, visual, and legal standards.

What Is Included in the Price

When you order professional drone filming, you are paying for:

  • Equipment – drones, cameras, microphones, stabilizers.
  • Experience and know-how – choosing the right technology, flight planning, safety.
  • Legal operation – permits, insurance, certification, compliance with EASA and CAA rules.
  • Production – the actual filming, interior and exterior fly-throughs.
  • Post-production – editing, audio, color grading, export, optimization.
  • Communication and service – consultations, proposals, revisions, delivery of the final output.

Block 2: Pricing Options, Project Types, and Regions

Pricing Options – From Basic Footage to Full Production

The price of drone filming can range from a few thousand CZK to tens of thousands, depending on the scope of the project. Here are indicative examples:

  • Basic interior fly-through of a small apartment – from CZK 4,000 (FPV drone, no post-production).
  • Complete house video including exterior – from CZK 8,000 (FPV + DJI Avata 2, editing, color grading, sound).
  • Restaurant or bar presentation – from CZK 10,000 (interior, exterior, sound, logo, export).
  • Hotel or guesthouse with a large area – from CZK 15,000 (multiple drones, 360° camera, post-production).
  • Warehouse, production hall, or resort outside the Czech Republic – from CZK 20,000 (travel costs, equipment, insurance, export).

These amounts are not fixed price lists, but illustrate that a professional service has its value. The client does not pay only for “time in the air,” but for the entire process from planning to the final output.

Types of Projects – Each Has Different Requirements

Each type of property or space requires a different approach:

  • Apartments and houses – focus on compact FPV drones, safe flight, detailed shots.
  • Restaurants, bars, wine bars – atmosphere, light, sound, combination of FPV and stable shots.
  • Hotels and guesthouses – complex fly-throughs, presentation of rooms, wellness, exterior.
  • Warehouses and factories – technical approach, safety, route planning.
  • Resorts and golf courses – dynamic FPV shots, speed, spatial orientation.

Block 4: How to Recognize a Quality Service, Fair Pricing, and Final Summary

How a Client Can Verify Service Quality

When someone is looking for drone filming, they often encounter a wide price range. To avoid disappointment, it is important to know what to check before placing an order:

1. Legal Operation

Every professional pilot must have:

  • operator registration,
  • A1/A3 and A2 certification,
  • liability insurance,
  • knowledge of EASA and CAA regulations.

If any of this is missing, it is a warning sign.

Cheap services for CZK 2,000 usually ignore these obligations.

2. Equipment Used

Quality video is not created with a cheap hobby drone.

Professional equipment includes:

  • FPV drones for interiors,
  • DJI Avata 2 C1 for universal use,
  • DJI Mavic 3 Cine for exteriors and ProRes recording,
  • iFlight FPV 5-inch drones for dynamic shots,
  • action cameras and a 360° camera,
  • DJI Mic 3 microphones for clean audio.

Equipment is an investment – and that is reflected in the price.

3. Post-production

Quality video is not only about what is filmed, but how it is processed.

Professional post-production includes:

  • editing,
  • color grading,
  • audio processing,
  • export in multiple formats,
  • optimization for web and social media.

Cheap services often deliver only “raw footage” that is not usable for marketing.

4. Communication and Approach

A professional service also includes:

  • consultation,
  • flight route planning,
  • equipment recommendations,
  • space preparation,
  • a safety plan.

This is the difference between “someone shows up with a drone” and a complete custom production.

Why Fair Pricing Makes Sense

When a client pays a fair price, they get:

  • legal and safe operation,
  • professional equipment,
  • a high-quality result,
  • confidence that the video will be usable for marketing,
  • responsibility and insurance,
  • professional post-production,
  • consultation and service.

This is the key difference compared to cheap offers, where clients often get just “something” that looks cheap – because it was cheap.

The Price Is Not Just About Minutes in the Air

Professional drone filming includes:

  • preparation,
  • travel,
  • equipment,
  • safety,
  • filming,
  • post-production,
  • export,
  • communication,
  • insurance,
  • legal obligations.

All of this forms a complete service, not just “a few minutes of flight.”

Why It Pays Off to Invest in Professional Video

High-quality drone video has a direct impact on:

  • property sales,
  • company presentation,
  • marketing for restaurants, hotels, or guesthouses,
  • brand visual identity,
  • project credibility,
  • customer interest.

Professional video is an investment that pays off.

Conclusion – Fair Price, Fair Approach, Fair Result

Drone filming is not just about technology, but about the entire process.

The price reflects:

  • quality,
  • safety,
  • legality,
  • technical capabilities,
  • post-production,
  • responsibility,
  • a professional approach.
