BBC uses Hexacopter for the first time

October 29, 2013/in Drone Filming, Event Filming, Hexacopter /by chameleon

As the government publishes its latest economic case for HS2 the BBC are purchasing and using a Hexacopter for the first time to cover the HS2 story.

The BBC have stated “The use of a hexacopter allows the filming of locations and angles that previously would not have been possible”.

A Hexacopter provides filming where a helicopter can not fly and also the data can be sent back to director in real time and this makes filming much faster.

There is a fantastic article from the Transport correspondent Richard Westcott:- http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-24712136

The BBC purchased a DJi S800 Hexacopter which is a fantastic piece of technology.

The hexacopter is able to take video footage while soaring in the air and creeping across the ground

Civil Aviation Authority regulates the use of these drones:

Fly within 50m of a road or building unless it’s under our control
Fly over crowds
Fly 500m horizontally or 120m vertically from the pilot

As well as search, Google now offers a range of services including Google Business Photos, Maps and Analytics which are useful for all types of businesses to be a part of. In order to appear in the search results, your business needs Google SEO.

The process of SEO makes websites Google friendly in order to allow it to rank them. Google ranks sites based upon their relevance to keywords as calculated by its algorithm. The Google algorithm takes into account factors including content, links, meta data and more. In order for your website to rank, you need a Google SEO company to work on these elements and others to make them Google friendly.
