Camera Drones in Centurion

The main camera drones page explains the types, the licences and the costs in more detail.

What to know locally in Centurion

Centurion families in estates such as Midstream, Eldoraigne and Copperleaf often buy a first mini drone, then learn that estate rules and the nearby bases limit where it can fly. Shops can explain which drones carry built-in no-fly zones and how to check a location before take-off. Buyers looking at second-hand drones on local groups should ask for the flight log and battery cycle count, and watch the drone hover before paying.

Centurion from the air

Centurion sits between two air force bases, Swartkop to the west and Waterkloof to the east, so it is one of the more awkward places in Gauteng to fly casually. Paid work goes on regardless. Developers want progress video of new estates in Midstream and Olievenhoutbosch, body corporates want roof and gutter checks, and office parks along the N1 order photos for leasing. Irene's farmland and the Rietvlei area add open space and a rural look. Summer brings late afternoon thunderstorms that arrive fast over the open grassland, while winter brings clear, cold mornings that suit mapping. Most estates also set their own drone rules.
