DRONES, CAMERAS and CUSTOM BUILD GEAR
High-end drone equipment for film productions
At Kiwi we always try to innovate whenever possible. We’ve built most of our drones in-house as we think knowing our equipment is key when flying a professional camera setup with Alexa mini or RED cameras. As innovation is our passion we were lucky enough to serve our clients with a great range of self-built drones and camera rigs.
On this page, you can read all about the Kiwi drones, cameras and custom options to match your production.

Kiwi Cameras

We have drones capable of flying a ARRI or RED camera as well as two Inspire 3 drones with the X9 camera. For the X9 camera, we offer all available lenses in the package.

DIRECTORS MONITOR
We always bring a wireless DoP monitor. It shows the aerial shot so the director can give feedback while in the air.
– Our bigger drones like the X8 and Matrice600 offer a wide variety of camera options. We would love to hear which camera you need for your Aerial production so we can tell you our related options.
In our workshop in Amsterdam, we are always creating new custom gear for crazy video productions. There are no boundaries in your request so let us know what you need and we will build it like this unique working coffee drone.
This custom build helicopter rig contains 3 RED Monstro cameras for a 22K resolution in a 310-degrees angle.
