## Description

New: fly a virtual 3D preview of any spot before you leave home. Plus one clear verdict across live UK airspace, wind at altitude, and your drone's limits.

Tap a spot on the map. Get one definitive answer: fly, wait, or don't fly.

Vantage is a precision flight clearance tool for drone pilots. It synthesizes airspace restrictions, ground rules, local weather, and your specific drone's hardware limits into a single clear verdict, telling you exactly which factor is blocking your flight.

ACTIVE-NOW AIRSPACE
Most UK airspace apps show you where the zones are. Vantage shows you whether they are active right now. Vantage parses FRZs, Danger Areas, advisory zones, and NOTAMs so you know what is live - including scheduled zones cancelled or temporarily activated. Aerial activity NOTAMs (gliders, airshows, parachuting) surface as their own yellow tier. Future-dated NOTAMs render as upcoming amber zones, allowing you to plan ahead safely. Airspace data refreshes in the background, so your cached map stays up-to-date even when standing in a field with zero cell signal. Settings shows the loaded AIRAC cycle and last successful data check.

GROUND RULES
Airspace isn't the only thing that grounds a flight. Vantage also checks the ground itself - National Trust land, forestry permits, SSSI / ASSI protected-area advisories, and other landowner restrictions are overlaid on the map and folded into the verdict with severity-aware copy. Vantage also resolves your local council and surfaces known drone byelaws and Public Spaces Protection Orders (PSPOs) for the land it controls.

3D FLIGHT PREVIEW
See your shot before you fly. Fly a virtual drone through a photorealistic 3D view of any location at your planned altitude and scout the composition before you leave home.

WIND AT FLIGHT ALTITUDE
Ground-level weather apps show you wind where you're standing. Vantage calculates wind where your drone flies. It extrapolates wind speeds at 100, 200, 300, and 400 ft using the meteorological power-law profile, so you know the true conditions before takeoff.

DRONE-SPECIFIC LIMITS
A DJI Mavic 3 Pro handles winds that would ground a Mini 4 Pro. Select your model, and Vantage automatically compares live conditions against its manufacturer-rated wind and gust ceilings, with a conservative safety margin built in to every flight verdict. Fly more than one drone? Keep them all in your garage and switch the active one with a tap.

7-DAY FLYABILITY STRIP
Scan the week at a glance. Each day features morning, midday, and evening flyability bars personalized to your drone's limits. Use the time scrubber to jump the map and verdict to any exact hour in the next 7 days.

PRECISION WEATHER & LIGHT
Precision data from Apple WeatherKit distinguishes live radar (intensity) from hourly forecasts (probability). Sun tracking highlights golden and blue hour in your target location's timezone.

PLACES & SAVED LOCATIONS
Search for your next spot by name or tap the map. Save regular locations - each carries a map snapshot thumbnail for at-a-glance recognition.

SUPPORTED DRONES
Over 50 models across DJI, Antigravity, Autel, Skydio, and Parrot - or enter a custom drone's wind limits manually.

PRIVACY BY DESIGN
No accounts, no sign-ins, no ads, and no location tracking. Vantage is a paid field tool, not a data broker.

FREE & VANTAGE PRO
Vantage is free to download. The free tier includes the complete offline UK airspace map, active zone details, the ground rules surface overlay, and tap-anywhere restriction info.
