Who we are

Robert Wood

sUAS CHIEF PILOT


Welcome to CriticalEdge Drone Services!

I began my construction career in 2001, and in 2006, my wife and I launched our roofing company. It didn’t take long for us to realize the demand for hardworking, dependable, and honest contractors in the industry.

My passion for flying drones emerged as I captured aerial photos and videos of our commercial and residential projects. This newfound interest led me into the commercial sUAS (small Unmanned Aerial Systems) industry, where I recognized a significant need for reliable professionals dedicated to quality service.

When I’m not piloting drones, you can find me enjoying quality time with my family, cooking delicious meals, practicing yoga, hiking, exploring new camping spots and of course, flying drones!
