    Safety

    Operation of photographic equipment and RPAs (Drones) on construction sites requires competence and understanding of both construction site safety, aviation, and photography protocols. 

    RaPAX® is well placed to meet these fundamental safety requirements by virtue that each of its operators has extensive construction industry experience and has a comprehensive understanding of construction etiquette in conjunction with photography fundamentals.

    Construction Site Safety

    The crew at RaPAX®  have been active in the construction and photographic industries for many years. Our Director has 30 years experience photographing and working on major infrastructure projects both here in Queensland and on the international stage.

    As a result of this background RaPAX® has in place a strong safety culture, with relevant PPE, safety equipment, documentation and most importantly clear concise communication.

    Aviation Safety

    RaPAX® has been operating drones commercially since its inception in 2014. The systems, processes and controls of our drone operations have been stringently reviewed, observed and approved by the Civil Aviation Authority (CASA). RaPAX® is CASA “certified for operation”.

    As per the CASA requirements the following restrictions must be considered prior to any flight
