About
The company behind the shots nobody else will fly.
Big Sky FPV is an aerial production company based in Orange County, California, operating nationwide. We fly the productions most drone operators can't take on: FPV over packed festival crowds, live feeds inside NBA arenas, cinema cameras on custom aircraft through film sets, and one-take fly-throughs of spaces where a collision is not an option.
The work spans concerts and festivals, sports and broadcast, film and television, brand campaigns, venues, and commercial facilities — for clients including the Los Angeles Clippers, Porsche Experience Center, HGTV, Insomniac, and the artists and producers behind S2O, Palm Tree Festival, and Nitehearts.
In-house, or not at all.
Most "nationwide drone networks" are booking platforms: your project gets brokered to whichever local operator answers. We don't do that. Every Big Sky FPV flight is flown by our own vetted pilots, under one set of standards — the same planning discipline, the same safety cases, the same communication, whether the production is in Los Angeles or three time zones away.
- Every pilot FAA Part 107 certificated, trained on our procedures
- Written risk assessment before every operation
- $10M aviation liability, COIs within 24 hours
- The crew that scopes your job is the crew that flies it
We build what we fly.
Big Sky FPV was founded by Jason El Moussa, and the company still runs on the obsession that started it: building the aircraft, not just flying them. Custom cinelifters that carry RED cameras, ducted sub-250 g rigs engineered for flight over crowds, decased cameras shaved to the gram — designed, built, tuned, and rebuilt in-house. When the shot calls for an aircraft that doesn't exist, we make it.
That culture came from live shows. Before drones, Jason spent years on stages and behind cameras — leading a touring live band, shooting events with cinema rigs — and it shows in how we fly: timing, rhythm, and cue discipline. Our pilots think like operators inside a show, not visitors to one. A drone move has a downbeat.
The rest of the time? Orange County, family, and an ongoing engineering project involving pizza dough. Same method: small adjustments, repeatable process, attention to detail.
