What do you need flown?
Four things people around here hire a drone for, each packaged with a price. Everything else is quoted per project. All of it flown by one Part 107 operator, based in West Grove.
Also flown, priced per project
Real services with real equipment behind them. The 2026 sheet quotes these per project instead of packaging them, which is the only reason they are not on the list above.
Anyone can hover
Cinema drones make the wide shot. FPV makes the shot that moves through a place — down a row of corn at harvest, between standing timber, along a roofline close enough to read the flashing. Both are flown here, under the same Part 107 certificate.
Autumn over Landenberg
Full color across the valley, flown in the first week of November.
Drone tower inspection
Close-range structure work at altitude, flown to hold position against a tower.

FPV over a ripe cornfield
One take, low and fast down the rows at harvest.
A look at the work
Recent captures across the kinds of projects I fly, all shot under Part 107. Most were taken inside the service area; a few, like the Jersey shoreline, were not.
One local pilot. No dispatch network.
The person who answers your first message is the person who plans the flight, checks the airspace, flies it, edits the frames and hands you the files. Nothing is subcontracted and nothing is handed off.
Tell me about the project
Where it is, roughly when you need it, and what the imagery is for. That is enough for me to quote from, usually within one business day.
I plan the flight
Airspace first, including LAANC authorization where the class of airspace requires it, then a weather window that will hold. If the weather turns, rescheduling costs nothing.
I fly it
Personally, under my own Part 107 certificate. The site is insured through SkyWatch before the flight, and the certificate is issued alongside the policy.
You get the finished files
Edited and delivered by secure download. How long that takes depends on the package rather than one blanket promise, and each standard package states its own delivery window on the pricing page.
Clear pricing. No surprises.
Every package includes high-resolution capture, basic color editing, and delivery of finished files by secure download. Prices are valid 90 days from quote. Custom projects outside these packages are quoted case by case.
I will travel for the job; anything outside the usual run is costed with the quote. Weather reschedules are free.
Trusted across the county
“ZigZag Aerial took a beautiful aerial photo of my apartments in Landenberg. The owner is very professional, an experienced operator with all the proper licenses.”
“People loved seeing our farm from a unique perspective.”
“It’s a new, neat perspective, and we’re extremely happy.”
One pilot, based on the chart
ZigZag Aerial LLC is a drone photography, videography and documentation company working out of West Grove, Pennsylvania, for real estate agents, builders, farmers, adjusters and event organizers across Chester County and the counties around it.
Every project is flown by an FAA Part 107-certified pilot and backed by $1M in commercial liability insurance. I live here, I fly here, and I know the light, the land and the airspace.
The camera is the easy part. Knowing where to put it, and whether the airspace will let you put it there that morning, is the job.
Where I fly
I’m based in West Grove and cover Chester County top to bottom. Beyond the county line the reach is real too: Lancaster County PA, Delaware County PA, New Castle County DE and Cecil County MD. There is no distance limit; the trip is costed with the job.
