BROOKLYN AERIALS currently flies a variety of drones, from Inspire 2 all the way to the giant ALTA X.
FREEFLY ALTA X
The ALTA X is our strongest heavylifter and built to fly full cinema packages. RED Monstro or MINI LF with cinema glass, compacts zooms or even an anamorphic lenses with remote focus and MōVI PRO stabilization. Maximum payload is 30 lbs.
FREEFLY ALTA 8
The Freefly ALTA 8 is the state of the art. What makes it unique is both its folding design and the option to also top mount the camera, for fast forward tracking shots or an interesting perspective, looking up. ALTA 8 lifts up to 20lbs of payload and is a great workhorse to fly the RED and ALEXA Mini.
DRONES IN NYC:
Naturally we get a lot of requests for drone work in NYC but due to the drone ban we do not offer any drone work in the 5 boroughs. Even though there are a lot of people flying drones in NYC, it has been and still is illegal to operate a drone on NYC grounds.
For any aerial work in the city we recommend GOTHAM FILMS - one of the best helicopter companies on the East Coast that offers both SHOTOVER F1 and K1 to fly virtually any desirable camera package out there.
