After graduating from Brunel University with a degree in Geography, Gareth built his career across multiple industries, including Vodafone telecommunications, banking in Mayfair, and seven years serving with the Metropolitan Police. He later retrained as an electrician, gaining extensive experience in new-build developments, office-to-residential conversions, and social housing projects—making him particularly well-suited to construction, property, and infrastructure-based drone work.

Through Red Air Media, Gareth delivers professional aerial surveys, roof inspections, property marketing visuals, and agricultural drone services. His unique combination of aviation passion, photography skills, and hands-on industry experience ensures accurate, high-quality results tailored to each client’s needs.

Gareth is committed to building a trusted drone services business in Kent, with a focus on reliability, safety, and professional standards.

Outside of work, Gareth enjoys spending time with his young family and keeping fit through CrossFit and cycling.

FPV

In the world of drones, FPV stands for First Person View—a flight experience that puts you virtually in the pilot’s seat. Traditionally, drone and RC aircraft pilots have relied on what’s known as line of sight (LOS) flying, where they control the aircraft by visually tracking it from the ground. This method, while effective, limits situational awareness and precision, especially at greater distances or in complex environments.
