I've got a loft conversion with a flat roof that's coming up to ten years old. I'm guessing it's got a fair bit of life left in it, but I'll probably want to have a look at it every few years so I can renew it before it fails.
I've been thinking about a remote control quadcopter with a video camera, as it'll probably cost less that scaffolding (there's no way I'm using a ladder). But they seem to fall into two categories: something serious costing over 500, which is too expensive; and something costing less than 100 which looks like a toy. There doesn't seem to be much middle ground.
There's no hurry, so I've got the option of waiting for a year or two for the market to mature. But I wonder if anyone had used this technology for looking at flat roofs, facias etc, and whether it's worth considering.
