CameraDrones.co.za is a free quote service for drones in South Africa. Whether you are buying a first camera drone, replacing a crashed battery, getting your remote pilot licence or need a licensed operator to map a farm or film an event, one request reaches the suppliers and pilots near you.
How it works
Fill in the mission brief at the bottom of the page: what you need, how many drones, batteries or days, or the size of the site, and where you are. For surveys and spraying the brief draws the site with a flight grid and works out the hectares and the distance flown. We send the request to drone shops and operators who work in your area, and they quote you directly. You compare and decide. It costs you nothing.
Everything we take requests for
From a first mini drone for a family trip to the Drakensberg to a thermal drone for a security company in Midrand, an RPL course in Pretoria, aerial photos of a listing in Umhlanga, a site survey for a new estate in Centurion or a spray drone working sugar cane on the North Coast.

Getting drone quotes you can compare
Two quotes for "a drone" can mean very different things. For a purchase, check that each names the same class of drone, camera and sensor size, the number of batteries, the charger and case, the warranty and who repairs it locally. For a job, check the pilot's remote pilot licence and the company's ROC, the insurance, how many flights and edits are included, the file formats you get back, travel costs and what happens if the weather grounds the flight. The cheapest quote that leaves out batteries or the licence is rarely the cheaper one.
