Advanced
When mobile connectivity is low or I'm at a busy event, I rely on a portable Starlink unit to enhance connectivity. This unit provides a super-fast internet connection for both computers and mobile devices. With Starlink, I can broadcast from virtually anywhere and maintain a separate, private broadband access point.
Broadband in a box
I've placed my Starlink system in a flight case, allowing it to operate for 9 hours before needing a recharge and providing extremely fast broadband connectivity wherever I go.
In situations where cell service is weak or unavailable, my portable setup ensures connectivity for my Live U device, internet access, and Wi-Fi calling, enabling phone use even without a cellular signal.

Commercial drone work
I've had a long-standing involvement with drones, flying them well before they became commercially viable. My journey began with developing my own systems and eventually turning my passion into a commercial venture. I was instrumental in introducing drones into broadcast news and became one of the first operators in the UK to offer drone filming services.
One of my significant contributions was collaborating with ITV to establish their drone unit, which remains operational today. My role encompassed training personnel, procuring specialized equipment, and providing strategic advice. Recognized as an expert in the broadcast industry, I've advised numerous operators and companies on integrating drone technology into their workflows.
In addition to drones, my commitment to broadcast innovation extends to my portable Starlink setup. By integrating Starlink into a flight case, I created a mobile system that delivers high-speed broadband for up to 9 hours, enabling connectivity in remote areas where cell service is lacking. This setup supports my Live U device, internet access, and Wi-Fi calling, ensuring seamless communication and broadcasting capabilities even in challenging environments.
In addition to my work in broadcast, I have served as a copilot, consultant, and instructor for Resource Group, where I contributed to the development of drone regulations with the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA). My expertise has been sought by various organisations, including police, military, and government departments, where I provided training and advice on a range of drone-related topics.
Resource Group asked me to write and produce a comprehensive drone course, which has allowed me to teach many individuals how to fly drones and operate cameras effectively. My experience in both practical operations and regulatory guidance has positioned me as a knowledgeable resource in the field of drone technology and its applications across different sectors.
