Ouseview Drone Hire began as a small local initiative in York’s historic centre, built by people who enjoy both quiet craft and open skies. From our base near Tanner Row, we provide practical drone rental for aerial filming, roof surveys, and scenic projects across North Yorkshire. The idea grew from simple weekend shoots above the Ouse River into a structured, transparent hire service with careful preparation and a respect for both flight safety and creative freedom.
Our approach is deliberately steady. We prioritise honest communication, clear conditions, and straightforward guidance over technical jargon. Each client receives short, focused notes at pickup — including weather awareness, quick preflight checks, and a gentle reminder of airspace responsibility. Whether your plan involves a local heritage feature or a landscape panorama, we support you without unnecessary complexity.
The drones we rent are selected for their reliability, stable footage, and simple handling. We maintain them with routine inspection and replacement cycles, so that every battery, propeller, and gimbal performs as expected. Our equipment choices are practical rather than experimental: models suited to both creative filming and structural inspection, all registered under current Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) regulations.
We also care about clarity around privacy. Drone activity can raise questions about data use, imagery rights, and local permissions. For that reason, we encourage clients to follow the same respectful standards that guide our team: film only with necessary purpose, avoid intrusive angles, and keep all recordings within safe, lawful limits. Our Data Use Notice, available on this site, explains in plain terms how we handle any customer information collected during bookings or communication.
Beyond rentals, Ouseview is a meeting point for local creatives, independent photographers, and technical professionals. We occasionally host small evening briefings for first-time flyers or short test sessions in open locations near York. Our aim is not to scale into a vast company, but to remain approachable and useful — a quiet workshop that keeps flight accessible and responsible.
