you fly.

What DroneFly checks

It pulls live data from the same sources the paid tools use, then turns it into one clear verdict: Good to Fly, Fly with Caution, or Not Safe.

Made for real pilots

I built DroneFly for my own drone site surveys because every other tool was paid and buried the answer. Then I opened it up for everyone, free.

Tuned to your drone

Mini Pro 5, Neo 2 and Mavic 4 Pro built in, with limits set per model. Flying something else? Add your own drone with its weight and wind rating, and it works out your UK category and what you're allowed to fly over.

Your call, your overrides

The verdict is conservative by default. If you've accounted for a warning, for example flying at night with a lit drone and permission, turn that flag off and the verdict recalculates. Your choices are remembered per drone. Hard risks like rain and GPS storms ask first.

Fly alerts

Get a nudge when conditions clear at your spot, a heads-up when they turn bad, and a morning summary of today's best fly window, so you're not refreshing the app all day.

Opens to your spot

Remembers your location and drone, so it loads straight to today's verdict. A 7-day outlook and an hour-by-hour fly window help you plan the week, not just the next ten minutes.

Fly responsibly

A planning aid, not a clearance

DroneFly helps you make a quick, informed call. It does not replace your own checks. Always confirm airspace and restrictions before you fly, and follow the UK CAA rules for your category.

Always verify airspace and temporary restrictions with DroneScene and the CAA Drone & Model Aircraft Code. You need a Flyer ID and Operator ID (free) from the CAA register to fly most drones in the UK.
