Real Estate Aerial Photography, on Autopilot

Stop flying the same orbit 12 times to get one clean pass. Drop a point on the address, set the radius and altitude, and Muninn flies the listing for you — so every shot is framed identically, every time.

Built for this mission

Repeatable shots, zero piloting skill

Orbit mission parameters are saved. Re-fly the exact same pass at a different time of day to get a golden-hour version of the mid-morning shoot.

Multi-altitude dome shells

Stack a 40m orbit with an 80m one in the same mission. Get the street-level approach AND the neighborhood reveal in a single battery.

Drone auto-faces the house

Every waypoint points its camera at the structure you picked. No gimbal keyframing, no yaw curves to debug.

How to fly it

  1. 1Click the Orbit tab, drop a POI on the address.
  2. 2Add shells — start with one at 40m radius / 50m altitude.
  3. 3Set gimbal pitch to -25° so the roof fills the frame.
  4. 4Export KMZ, load in DJI Fly, tap Start.

Questions we hear

Do I need a Part 107 license?

Only if you're paid for the work or flying commercially. Hobbyist real estate (your own listing, no compensation) is recreational. Otherwise yes — FAA Part 107 is required for paid real estate shoots in the U.S.

What altitude is best for homes?

30-60m AGL covers most single-family homes with good context. Higher (80-120m) suits estates and acreage. Stay under 120m to comply with Part 107.

Which DJI drones work for this?

Air 3 / 3S, Mini 3 / 4 Pro, Mavic 3 — any WPML-compatible DJI. Older drones export via Litchi CSV. Mini 4 Pro is the sweet spot for weight-class and image quality.
