The advent of drones for advertising is here, but there are still a few legal issues that marketers should be aware of. In particular, the laws around the use of drones for advertising will still have an impact on the effectiveness of an advertisement. Marketers will be keen to take advantage of these new technologies in order to market their products or services. PromoDrone (and DroneCast) are both popular advertising options.
DroneCast
DroneCast has a remote control plane with attached banners. It can help your business get noticed in the air.

Although drones have become more popular, they are still not as large as billboards or blimps. DroneCast and Hoovy advertise with banners measuring six feet in width, but they are still not as big as Goodyear blimps, which measure 246 feet. DroneCast was started by DroneCast founders after they were inspired from a basketball game.

Winn
In 2013, Winn began using drones for advertising assignments. Winn was the first person in Dallas to be authorized by FAA for commercial use. He uses aerial videos as a way to promote different industries. His drone videos have been featured across television in the West and on PBS stations New Mexico/New York. The FAA has very strict regulations regarding commercial drone usage, which can pose legal issues.
For example, drones can increase productivity across large areas. A recent survey of DroneDeploy customers revealed that drones are being used to improve productivity and operations. DroneDeploy serves customers in 135 different countries and has processed data equivalent to 8 million acres. Winn drones are also becoming more common with over two-thirds (or more) of DroneDeploy's customers planning on using them by the end this year.
Red Bull
Coca-Cola's drones are being put to good use in a recent video which has received more than 43,000,000 views from YouTube. The company joined forces with the Kindness Movement of Singapore to use drones for delivery of drinks and thank you notes to workers. Red Bull recently used drone-mounted cameras for another campaign that followed Danny MacAskill, the Scottish cyclist, along the Cuillin Ridgeline. It is one of Britain's most difficult hiking trails. The video features a stunning aerial perspective of the cyclist's journey.
Drones are an excellent way to show off brands and events. It is possible to get more exposure by using a drone to record a sporting event. Drone videos will be shared around the world and can even be part of a powerful performance. Some creatives are creating new ways to incorporate drones in advertising. Lexus's campaign, for example, features its athletes with a strong focus on drones.

How To
How to Fly Drones at a Beginning Level
A drone refers to a remote-controlled aircraft designed for aerial photography, surveillance and scientific research. Drones have been in use since World War II. DJI's Phantom series of quadcopters was the first to be commercially used. Since then, there have been many different types of drones available, from beginner-friendly models like the Parrot AR Drone 2.0 to professional-grade multi-rotor craft like the DJI Mavic Pro.
There are many ways to fly a drone.
-
Remote control - This allows you to control the drone from your hand. There are two main types, On/Off switches (like radios) and joysticks.
-
Manual Control- This allows you to control your drone remotely via GPS coordinates. The app will provide instructions and help you to locate the drone.
-
Autonomous Flight – This is when the drone handles all the piloting tasks. It basically flies autonomously without any human intervention. To enable autonomous flight, the drone should have a built in camera and sensors capable recording images and data.
-
Triggered Flying - This method works in the same way as manual control. However, the pilot has to manually set up a route for the drone and it follows that route until reaching the endpoint. Once the programmed route is completed, the drone lands automatically and returns back to the base.
-
Landing Gear - Some drones come equipped with landing gear that allows them to land safely if they lose power or run out of battery during flight.
-
Goggles-Some pilots use goggles to protect their eyes from debris during operations.
-
Camera - Certain drones come with cameras that allow you to take photos and videos from high above.
-
Obstacles – Some drones have obstacle avoidance systems that stop them from colliding with obstacles.
-
Speed - Some drones can reach speeds of over 40 mph.
-
Battery Life - Most drones can last between 20 minutes to 3 hours, depending on how much power you're using.
-
Range - Some drones can travel upto 30 miles depending on their models.
-
Power source - Not all drones can use an external power source. Others can run on internal batteries.
-
Weight - Some drones can be as light as 1 pound while others can reach 4 pounds.
-
Size - Drones come in many sizes, from small gadgets that fit in one's hands to large craft that weigh more than 50 lbs.
-
Price - From high-end models that cost thousands of dollars to low-cost options that start at $100, all drones fall under a certain price category.
