Munich 路 Bavaria

This is our home spot.

Drone filming, video production and livestreams from Grasbrunn, just east of Munich. Conferences, brand campaigns, aerials and the river wave are a drive for us, not a mobilisation, and the lakes and the Alps are two hours out.

11Questions

Drone filming in Munich: common questions

Do you offer drone filming in Munich?

Yes. AALVAA Media is based in Grasbrunn, just east of Munich, and flies drone shoots across Munich and Bavaria: brand and corporate films, hotels and real estate, construction progress, events and sport, FPV and live aerial feeds for broadcast.

Are your drone pilots certified and insured?

Yes. Our pilots hold EU A1/A3 and A2 remote pilot certificates and the UK equivalents, and every flight is covered by worldwide aviation liability insurance compliant with EC 785/2004. The documents go to your team with the quote.

Can you fly near Munich Airport or in controlled airspace?

Parts of Munich lie in controlled airspace and in geographical zones with their own rules. We check the exact site and date, apply for the permissions the location needs, and tell you in writing before the shoot what can be flown.

Who handles the permits and paperwork?

We do. Airspace checks, landowner and location permissions, insurance documents and the paperwork your compliance team needs are part of the job.

Do you fly FPV drones?

Yes, including custom-built, broadcast-ready FPV drones for chases, venue reveals and one-take flights for brands, hotels, property and live production.

Can the drone go live into a stream or a TV broadcast?

Yes. The drone feed runs over RF into the switcher and the pilot flies to the director's call. We do this as the live production crew for world championships.

Which areas do you cover?

Munich and the whole of Bavaria, including Augsburg, Ingolstadt, Rosenheim, Starnberger See, Tegernsee, Chiemsee, Garmisch-Partenkirchen and the Bavarian Alps, plus Austria and projects worldwide.

How do I book a drone shoot?

Send the date, the location and what the footage is for. You get back a flight and shoot plan, the permissions needed and a price, in English or German.
