About Us

Icarus Media Ltd is a UK-based media and aerial survey company delivering high-quality videography, and aerial specialist inspection services across a wide range of industries. As a family-run business founded in Hampshire, we combine technical expertise with a personal, client-focused approach to every project.

CAA Certified Pilots

At Icarus Media Ltd, safety, professionalism, and compliance are at the core of everything we do. Our pilots are fully certified by the UK Civil Aviation Authority (CAA), meaning we are legally authorised to carry out commercial drone operations across the UK.

Being CAA-qualified ensures that every flight is conducted in accordance with strict aviation regulations. This includes comprehensive risk assessments, airspace checks, and detailed flight planning to guarantee safe and controlled operations in all environments—whether in busy urban areas or remote locations.

Choosing a CAA-certified drone operator is essential. It means your project is protected by proper licensing, full insurance coverage, and adherence to the highest industry standards. Non-certified operators may pose serious risks, including legal issues, safety hazards, and compromised results.

Our qualifications demonstrate not only our technical capability but also our commitment to delivering reliable, responsible, and professional drone services you can trust.

If you are unsure about whether or not a project can be done with a drone in your area, contact us today and we can gain the necessary permissions required to undertake the task, whether it is close to an Airport or secure prison we will always liaise with the necessary and local authorities to undertake each task & flight with the Utmost professionalism.

Commercially Insured

At Icarus Media Ltd, we carry comprehensive commercial drone insurance to ensure every project is fully protected from start to finish. Our coverage includes both public liability and professional indemnity, giving our clients complete peace of mind on every job.

Operating drones in commercial environments comes with inherent risks, which is why proper insurance is essential. Our policies are specifically designed for aerial operations, covering potential risks to people, property, and equipment while ensuring full compliance with UK industry requirements.

Choosing an insured drone operator protects your business from unnecessary liability. In the unlikely event of an incident, you can be confident that you are working with a professional company that takes responsibility, safety, and risk management seriously.

Our commitment to being fully insured reflects our wider dedication to professionalism, reliability, and delivering high-quality services you can trust.

Flying in Most Weathers

At Icarus Media Ltd, we operate advanced, weather-resistant drone systems, including the industry-leading drones like DJI Matrice M30. Built for professional use in demanding environments, these drones are designed to perform reliably in rain, wind, and challenging weather conditions—allowing us to deliver consistent results when others cannot.

In the UK, where rainfall is frequent and unpredictable throughout the year, having weather-capable equipment is essential to keeping projects on schedule. Our all-weather drones enable us to operate safely in light to moderate rain, reducing delays and ensuring we can meet tight deadlines without compromising on quality or safety.

By investing in professional-grade, weather-resistant drones, we provide our clients with greater flexibility, improved reliability, and the confidence that their project can move forward—whatever the weather.

We Operate Nationwide

With Offices located optimally in Hampshire & Oxfordshire we are equipped to operate across the country providing our unique services throughout the year wherever you are. Covering remote areas like Cornwall or Ilse of Wight, urban centres like London and Liverpool & more.

Our drone fleet comes equiped with waterproof drones so that we can work through the tough weather conditions so we can still deliver your media or survey solutions on time.
