Enterprise-Grade Drone Fleet

Advanced, safety-focused drone technology equipped for precision, inspections, and emergency response across Central Illinois.

Fleet Overview

At From Above Aerial Imagery, our fleet is purpose-built for precision, safety, and reliability. From thermal imaging and RTK mapping to real-time live streaming, our drones are equipped to support agriculture, inspections, infrastructure, and emergency operations across Central Illinois.

Aircraft Available 

Iris & Shutter — Advanced Aerial Imaging Fleet

Our fleet combines two professional Autel Robotics aircraft: Iris, our EVO Lite 640T Enterprise, and Shutter, our Autel EVO Max 4T. Together, they give From Above Aerial Imagery the flexibility to support a wide range of missions, from detailed visual media to thermal inspection, emergency response support, infrastructure assessment, roofing documentation, agriculture, search and rescue, and pet recovery operations.

Iris provides a compact, maneuverable thermal and visual platform equipped with a 640 × 512 radiometric thermal sensor and a 50MP high-resolution visual camera, making it well-suited for rural environments, tight operating areas, heat-signature detection, roof and structure inspections, and real-time situational awareness. Shutter, our EVO Max 4T, expands our capabilities with a more advanced multi-sensor platform designed for complex commercial operations, including mapping, inspection, public safety support, low-light operations, and high-resolution aerial documentation. Combined, Iris and Shutter allow us to choose the safest and most effective aircraft for each mission while delivering professional, data-driven results from above.
