Drone Operator Services

Here is how this works in practice. Hungarian commercial drone work is set by NMHH (Nemzeti Média- és Hírközlési Hatóság, the National Media and Infocommunications Authority) which handles UAV operator licensing under the EU-harmonised A1/A3 and A2 Open Category rules plus Specific Category authorisations for cinema-payload aircraft, while HungaroControl Magyar Légiforgalmi Szolgálat manages real-time airspace coordination including the Budapest TMA, Ferihegy/Liszt Ferenc Global CTR, and any temporary restricted airspace pushed for state visits or scheduled flyovers. Our operator roster is sourced from Pannonia Cine Service, the Magyar Drone Pilots Association working list.

Here is the short of it. Plus the senior aerial-DP pool that has shipped on Witcher S3, Black Widow, Atomic Blonde, Inferno, and Hellboy 2019 second-unit aerial. Pilots with both EU A2 and Specific Category authorisations, today's 14-hour-block flight logs, and English-working communication with HungaroControl tower controllers. Insurance runs €3M minimum third-party liability with cinema-payload riders. Pilots carry their own paperwork chain for filing 72-hour and 14-day permit packs.

Here is the breakdown. Aircraft packages run DJI Inspire 3 (8K full-frame, ProRes RAW) and Inspire 2 with X7 and Zenmuse cinema gimbals for high-end narrative and commercial aerial, DJI Mavic 3 Cine for tighter location work and rapid-deploy second unit. Plus DJI Matrice 350 RTK for heavy-payload Ronin 4D and RED Komodo-X lifts. We brief on the specific Budapest restricted-airspace patchwork.

Here is what that looks like on the ground. Buda Castle UNESCO and the Castle Hill area (always permit-restricted, needs advance NMHH filing), Andrássy Avenue UNESCO (with overhead crowd considerations during Heroes' Square approach), the Pest Parliament building and surrounding Kossuth tér (no-fly zone with security exemptions only), Liszt Ferenc Global CTR boundary clearance, and Liberty Bridge and Chain Bridge crossings (Danube corridor coordination). Rural permitting needs Hungarian Nature Conservancy (Természetvédelmi Hivatal) clearance plus on-site ranger coordination across Hortobágy National Park (UNESCO Biosphere Reserve), Aggtelek karst caves, Bükk National Park, and Balaton-felvidéki National Park. Protected-species nesting windows can close airspace seasonally and we set up to match.
