FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE .
Local Drone Company Aims For the Sky
The Family and Veteran–Owned Enterprise Offers Aerial Image and
Video Services at a Surprisingly Competitive Price
Albuquerque, NM, September 5, 2019 – Infiltrating the wide–open Commercial Uncrewed
Aerial Vehicle (CUAV) service industry, Drone Squadron 1 (DS1) is now scheduling flights
benefiting the residential and commercial real estate industries. “Our doors have finally
opened and we are ready to fly missions,” said Dr. Rich Holtzin, a Navy veteran and
spokesperson for the company. “We’re a small business with three employees, but we’ll
work our way up from there,” he said. Their FAA certified Part 107 CUAV Pilot is an FAA
certified A&P Mechanic and an Army veteran. The third employee is in charge of technology
and was also in the armed forces, flying backseat in Navy jets off of aircraft carriers. The
three amigos are fixed–wing airplane pilots as well. ”It probably explains why our company
has a military vibe to it,” Dr. Holtzin said. “I guess our logo says it all, huh?”
Setting the Pricing Standard
Aerial photography and videography can be rather expensive. A typical CUAV company has
several packages to choose from, with the lowest priced package set at around $250 for a
residential or commercial property. For that price, a realtor receives 15 edited
high–resolution images with no video and a one day turnaround time. “Add in a sixty second
marketing HD video and the price can easily go up to around $350 and two days,” said Dr.
Holtzin. DS1 is looking to cause a stir with a price that any realtor can afford. “Our CUAV
Image Package is priced at $200, which gets you 20 edited images at a resolution of 2250
by 1500 pixels. For a hundred bucks more, you get the CUAV Video Package, which includes
the images plus a 60 second marketing video at 1080p resolution, all with a two day
turnaround from the time the job is scheduled,” Dr. Holtzin said with a definite hint of pride
in his voice. “Nobody out there can even touch that,” he added with a smile.
