How Much Does Drone Videography Cost in Toronto?

Starter Flight: a focused refresh

Starter Flight suits one property or a compact business that needs a small, clearly defined set of content. At $199 CAD plus HST, it includes up to 45 minutes on location, either 10 high-resolution colour-graded aerial photos or six raw 4K clips, and one vertical social cut up to 15 seconds.

Files arrive through a private online download link, with a published delivery range of three to four business days. The photo-or-clips choice matters: this is not a promise of both sets. Decide whether the immediate job is a listing refresh, a short social post or supplying footage to your editor.

Signature Hybrid: photos, a film and a reel

Signature Hybrid is $399 CAD plus HST. It is the more complete starting point for a business or property that needs both still images and finished video. The published package allows up to 90 minutes on location and delivery in three to five business days.

It includes 15 high-resolution aerial photos, one 45–60 second cinematic 4K highlight, one 15–30 second vertical reel in 9:16 format, one revision and private online delivery. Licensed background audio is included with the highlight.

A horizontal highlight can introduce a place on a website or YouTube, while the vertical edit is shaped for social viewing. Tell Tim where each version will go before filming: a deliberate vertical composition is more useful than finding out afterwards that an important detail falls outside the crop.

When a custom FPV quote makes more sense

A signature fly-through or agency campaign needs a route-specific scope rather than a generic price comparison. The Commercial FPV / Custom offer describes a rehearsed indoor-to-outdoor route, subject to site suitability, and a 4K master cut with colour grading, sound design and VFX speed ramps. Raw footage availability and usage are agreed in the quote.

The published fly-through scope allows up to three hours; larger productions are quoted separately. Delivery is agreed with the edit scope. Describe any FPV requirement explicitly when inquiring rather than assuming a standard photo-and-video package covers a particular indoor route. See the FPV service page for the approach.

What can change the quote?

Standard Toronto/GTA travel is included under the current homepage terms; extended-travel mileage fees apply. Send the exact location so travel and access conditions can be confirmed in writing. Do not estimate feasibility from the neighbourhood name alone.

Two projects of similar finished length can require different production work. A single exterior reveal is not the same scope as a multi-site campaign with staff, coordinated access and multiple deliverable formats. Useful details include:

• How many locations, rooms or areas need coverage, and when they are accessible.
• Whether you want photos, raw clips, an edited film, vertical reels or several versions.
• The intended use: website, property listing, organic social content or a paid campaign.
• Any fixed deadline, additional editing requests or coordination with an agency or venue.

HST, revisions and delivery timing

The current rates are CAD plus 13% HST. That makes the listed Starter Flight $224.87 including HST and Signature Hybrid $450.87 including HST, before any separately quoted scope or extended-travel charges. These are Tim On The Wing’s offers, not a Toronto-wide market average.

Signature includes one revision. Additional versions or changes outside the agreed brief may require a revised quote; do not assume unlimited editing. Your written quote confirms the files, formats and quantities. Under the booking terms, delivery timing begins after the shoot and after any client-supplied assets or approvals needed for editing are received.

Weather, site access and the operating plan can also affect scheduling. Unsuitable conditions are discussed before flight. The quote sets project-specific rescheduling terms, so a fixed campaign launch date should be raised at the start.

How to get a useful quote

Send your location or nearest intersection, preferred date, project type, budget range and needed deliverables through the quote form. A link to a reference film and a short explanation of what you like about it can be more helpful than a long shot list with no intended audience.

Tim can then review the location and scope with you. Use the package as a starting point, not a substitute for confirming what the shoot requires. For a business campaign, explore business drone video in Toronto; for still-led property content, see aerial property photography.
