Layout Services

Road layouts in cable logging operations can be a time consuming process can take anywhere from a couple hours to a couple days. If the road line isn’t strung right, you can find yourself redoing it multiple times before the skyline clears up. With a drone, we will ensure that your road layout is strung within minutes, and we’ll be there until the skyline clears up. 

Advantages of a Drone Completing a Layout

  • We can fly a 5,000 ft layout in an average of 5-10 minutes.
  • All you have to do is pull the lines around.
  • High breaking strength of rope, meaning easy pull on haywire.
  • Rope can be spooled onto the yarder on top of haywire. 
  • The road line is flown straight and can be tightlined. 
  • The rope is strung over the top of everything. 
  • No need for hand pulling any haywire. 
  • We’re there until skyline picks up.
  • We can fly in various weather conditions.
  • You have more time to collect logs and send them to the mills.

  • Connect firehose to any pressurized water vehicle.
  • Target a large area.
  • Access hard to reach hotspots.
