FPV vs. traditional drone for property marketing

One is for establishing the site. The other is for moving through it. Most launches need both.

A conventional drone is a viewpoint. It tells you where the project sits in the landscape, how far the sea is, and how the massing reads from above. That is the establishing shot. Without it, an FPV clip can feel like a corridor with no map.

FPV is a path. It is how you arrive, how you move between buildings, and how a villa or a plot is actually used. Sakti and Mini Map are this job: terrain and access. Sardine Rote and Villa Koh Samui are this job for hospitality: would you walk this place.

We do not pick a toy and then find a use for it. If the blocked yes is 'I cannot tell how I get onto the land,' the flight follows the access. If the blocked yes is 'I cannot tell if I would stay here,' the flight follows the stay.

Anjuna Bay uses both on the same development: FPV for movement, a virtual tour for staying. That pairing is the default when a project has to sell before anyone flies in.
