01
Choose the flight, not a marketing label
A first flight, a travel camera and a more advanced operation need different answers.
Find your routeUK drone guidance, without the noise
Choose a drone
you can actually use.
WhatDrone UK starts with the flight you want to make, then brings together the buying route and the official checks that can change the decision.
A more useful way to decide
A drone is not one decision.
We keep the questions in the right order: your job, the exact aircraft configuration, and the current UK operating route. That is how you avoid buying an answer to someone else’s flight.
02
Check the configuration that changes the answer
Weight, class mark, fitted battery and controller are decision details, not footnotes.
Use the configuration checklist03
Use current UK guidance before every flight
A product page cannot tell you whether a specific flight is permitted at a particular location and time.
Use the pre-flight listA local decision route
Build your next-check route before you compare products.
Five short answers turn a vague drone search into the official checks and buying context that deserve attention. This does not determine whether a flight is permitted.
Keep the order useful
Flight context first. Exact configuration second.
WhatDrone UK is designed to make the first decision clear. Once you have a flight context and configuration questions, the route tool will show a clearly disclosed UK Shortlists continuation for role-based comparisons. Neither site sells a position in a recommendation.
The important limit
No website can clear a flight for you.
Before every flight, check current CAA information, airspace and flight-restriction details, landowner permission, weather and local conditions. These are live questions, not a once-and-done product feature.
