“I couldn’t ask for a better teacher than 1UP when it comes to drones.  They have a flexible course load, and I liked that we really got to know each other as they adjusted the pace and content based on my skill level. Even if you come into the class thinking you know a good amount about flying, they can really blow your mind with new info on best legal, operational and business practices. My favorite part of the course was learning about automated flights for data collection, something I knew nothing about before. By the end of the training I had made my own panoramas and 3D models thanks to flying with 1UP.

I trained with Chuck and Chris and they were highly professional. They were able to answer all my questions and get me up to speed with everything I need to know to start flying drones commercially! Highly recommended!

Thank you guys so much for taking the time to work with us over the last week! You guys were awesome! We came into the class with lots of questions and reservations about flying expensive drones and left feeling confident and informed!

J.T. Thorpe is the oldest and largest refractory contractor in North America.  We have weekly engineering projects, inspections of kilns, petrochemical plants, collection of GIS data for mining operations, and many other projects where external factors such as high winds, weak GPS signals, & security concerns can be a challenge. 

We purchased the Intel Falcon 8+ from 1UP and look forward to solving many of these challenges that you see with other systems.

We needed to collect LiDAR data to develop LAS point clouds of bare earth surface data to estimate cut/fill volumes for a 15-mile long ditch lining and reshaping configuration project.

“The 1UP LiDAR UAV data & precision equals less surprises and more accurate canal rehabilitation estimates.” 

Craig Ullman, VP, Applegate Group

We “took off” with the purchase of our 1^st drone and accessories from 1UP Aerial Drone Services!!!  They provided expertise, links to helpful videos/websites that you won’t receive from other retailers.  While the battery hub and Phantom battery were back ordered, they communicated every step of the way and kept us up to date on status.  

Nice job 1UP!

This 1 day course is ideal for companies looking to utilize drones for commercial use or individuals looking to prepare for their FAA Part 107

Strasburg Pharms is Colorado’s premier hemp farm offering all organically grown, laboratory extracted and tested, industrial hemp based Cannabidiol (CBD).   

We asked 1UP to film the 2017 planting, growth, and harvest season.  They did an amazing job providing us with the full season time lapse video that tells a wonderful story about our 2017 season progress, our high quality CBD products, and beautiful views of our massive hemp farm in Strasburg, CO.

In addition to the video, 1UP went above and beyond by providing us 3D models, contours, elevations, and macro level information about our plant health that will be useful to our upcoming 2018 season and beyond.

1UP is a raving success! 

Thank you! Brad Wyatt, Owner/Partner, Strasburg Pharms

1UP Drones recently completed a video of the Genesee Water & Sanitation District Operations. They were professional, creative, responsive to requests, and easy to work with. We can enthusiastically recommend 1UP to anyone with video needs and especially those that can be augmented with aerial photography.

Fantastic work 1UP! Gary Anderson

Site evaluations [with a fixed wing aircraft] could cost us five or ten thousand dollars and take 60 days to schedule. We’d much rather spend two thousand on 1UP, and schedule it for next week to collect all the data we need.
