Building an inspection-focused drone business.
Sky Pals Dispatch is a pre-launch business founded and independently developed by Airex Wert. The website is live while LLC formation, inspection services, equipment readiness, operating procedures, and clear deliverables are developed.
Pre-launch status
Sky Pals Dispatch has a live website and a defined launch direction: practical aerial inspection support and organized visual documentation. Fire-service applications are a later area to explore, not a current service or agency affiliation.
Inspection services come first.
The first business goal is useful aerial inspection support and documentation. Fire-service applications remain a later research and relationship-building goal.
Roof and exterior documentation
Planned aerial visual inspection support for roofs, exteriors, and difficult-to-view areas, with scope and deliverables clearly defined.
Property and site overviews
Organized aerial imagery for properties, lots, access points, site context, and visual records.
Progress and recurring records
Repeatable documentation for construction progress, exterior conditions, and projects that benefit from consistent viewpoints over time.
Future fire-service exploration
A later goal to test how drones may help fire services after the inspection business is established and the required training, policies, and agency relationships are understood.
What must be ready before inspection services are offered.
The roadmap separates active business development from services that are not yet available.
Equipment planning
Select aircraft, batteries, storage, camera payload, thermal needs, maintenance routines, and field kit requirements.
Licensing / Part 107
Part 107 certification is complete. Keep the temporary certificate available while the permanent certificate is pending, and document airspace checks for every mission.
Insurance
Define insurance requirements and project boundaries before any client-facing aerial work is offered.
Safety process
Create preflight checks, site risk review, weather boundaries, battery process, and emergency steps.
Client intake process
Build a planning intake for location, scope, timing, airspace, property permission, deliverables, and constraints.
Operating area
Plan around Wilkes-Barre / Northeastern Pennsylvania while keeping travel, weather, permissions, and local requirements visible.
A clear path from pre-launch business to responsible operations.
This high-level sequence begins with inspection services. The complete official roadmap documents the detailed launch gates, milestones, service boundaries, and longer-term goals.
- 1Form the business and define clear ownership, scope, and launch boundaries.
- 2Complete licensing, insurance, equipment, and training decisions.
- 3Define the initial inspection services, client intake, deliverables, and operating procedures.
- 4Practice safe workflows and build sample inspection-style documentation.
- 5Launch the core inspection business, then explore fire-service use cases through research and local conversations.
