Veteran-owned aerial drone services built on precision, professionalism, and purpose. Serving Houston’s construction and real estate industries.
Our story
First to Fly Drone Services LLC was founded by Carlos Escudero, a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, FAA Part 107 certified remote pilot, and MBA candidate based in Cypress, Texas. What started with a passion for flight and a commitment to excellence has grown into a focused aerial services company serving the Greater Houston area.
With a background in finance, business intelligence, and military leadership, Carlos brings a level of discipline and professionalism to every flight that clients can count on. First to Fly specializes in construction site aerial documentation and real estate photography — delivering high-quality visuals that help builders track progress, market properties, and make better decisions.
Driven by passion
Every project we take on reflects the same values that shaped our founder's military career — accountability, attention to detail, and follow-through. We treat every client like a partner and every flight like a mission. Whether it's capturing a construction milestone from 200 feet or showcasing a new listing at golden hour, we show up prepared, fly safe, and deliver on time.
