Brits notes on parts, training & hire
Pilots around Brits and Hartbeespoort lose drones to water more than most, so many ask for float kits, spare props and prop guards before flying over the dam. Repair shops in Pretoria serve most of the area, with simpler fixes done locally. RPL training is easy to reach through schools in Pretoria and around Lanseria. Hire with a pilot is common for weddings in Kosmos and Broederstroom, and for farm days near Mothutlung.
Brits from the air
Brits sits on irrigated farmland between the Magaliesberg and the Crocodile River, with Hartbeespoort Dam to the south-east. Drone requests here split between farms and leisure. Citrus, vegetable and grain growers along the canals ask for spraying and crop maps, while lodges, wedding venues and holiday homes around the dam want aerial photos and video. The sky near Hartbeespoort is busy with microlights, paragliders and pleasure flights over the ridge, and Lanseria International and Wonderboom airports are within reach to the south and east. The Pelindaba nuclear site near the dam is a restricted area. Summers bring hot afternoons and thunderstorms, while winters are dry and dusty with good morning light.
Typical drone cameras and gimbals requests in the area come from:
- Farmers and growers: a thermal camera to count livestock and spot game in the veld
- Estate agents and developers: a large-sensor camera that copes with bright sun and deep shade
- Photographers, film crews and agencies: a gimbal camera with flat colour profiles for graded film work
