Tobias, the pilot, smiling in front of the command vehicle

Meet your pilot

I’m Tobias, an FAA-certified Part 107 drone pilot, U.S. military veteran, and active search-and-rescue volunteer based in Alamance County, North Carolina. I started LaunchMyDrone to bring the same high-end thermal and visual equipment we use on missions to local realtors, farmers, hunters (deer recovery), inspection companies, and businesses.

When you call, you talk directly to me — and I’m the pilot who shows up for the job.
