Whether you want to sharpen your piloting chops, capture a fly’s point-of-view or inspect hard-to-reach spots above the factory floor, the ceiling is the limit for these indoor drones. An added bonus is that when operating these machines inside, you won’t need a special license. Our selections feature models of various sizes, speeds, battery capabilities and control methods.
