AirVuz FAQs
What is AirVuz?
AirVuz is the premiere online video sharing community for the emerging Drone Age. It's the place where the World's Best Drone Videos can be discovered, shared, and celebrated! Whether its video content uploaded by members of the community or AirVuz Original Programming Concepts that highlight the amazing capabilities of civilian drones for capturing incredible video footage and performing other functions helpful to the world!
How do I pronounce AirVuz?
Air "views"
How is AirVuz different from other video sharing platforms?
First and foremost - we're a community that's geared for, and built by, drone enthusiasts! Aerial footage is special, and AirVuz brings the best users, the best contributors, beautiful content and a sizeable audience together in one place that is free, easy to use, and sophisticated enough to provide a high quality viewing, uploading and interactive experience to a worldwide user base.
Does AirVuz make, sell, or recommend drones?
No, AirVuz only hosts the aerial videos uploaded by our users and their drones. We do have a “How To / Instructional” category where our users have uploaded reviews of drones or drone-related equipment.
Is setting an account up free? Are there limits to the number of videos I can post?
Setting up an AirVuz account is free and easy. You can log in directly from Facebook or Google, or you can easily create a log in using your email address.
There is no limit to the number of videos you can post; in fact, the more fantastic footage you submit, the more great content you're making available for our community to discover!
My videos are already on YouTube or Vimeo. Can I import them from there?
AirVuz has supported this convenience in the past, however, limitations from other video sharing platforms like YouTube and Vimeo have no longer made that possible.
I'm not sure which category to put my video in?
You are welcome to select up to the categories that you feel best fit the content of your video. If your video is appropriate for multiple categories, pick up to three categories to ensure that everyone can discover your great video!
How does my video get into a collection?
Our AirVuz team carefully curates all videos uploaded to our site and reviews them for any kind of feature, including placement into one of our many beautiful collections.
Can I edit the information about my video?
Yes - you can edit the information about your video (title, description, category, tags, etc.) after you've uploaded it by simply visiting your AirVuz profile and clicking on the EDIT button on the given video.
How can I share my videos?
We have a 'Share' feature right on the video player page, so you can share it on Facebook, Twitter or Google. We highly encourage contributors and other site users to share AirVuz site content. High-quality drone video content appeals to people with a broad range of interests, including many who don't even think of themselves as drone enthusiasts.
Why does my profile name appear as just a string of numbers?
Occasionally when creating your AirVuz account by logging in from another platform (e.g. Facebook), your user name isn't transmitted fully and instead an ID number is sent. You can easily change your profile name from the string of numbers to whatever Profile Name you prefer, without needing to recreate your account.
For users which are active on multiple social media and video sharing platforms, we encourage using the same profile name on AirVuz when feasible. Among other things, this makes it easier for users to find you easily on AirVuz, and it also makes it easier for AirVuz to promote your content on social media.
How do I set up the Donate or Hire Me buttons?
Your AirVuz profile can be edited to display a “Donate” and/or a “Hire Me” button for other AirVuz community members to use. The 'Donate' button makes it possible for others that enjoy your work to make financial contributions to you. All you need is a PayPal® account to which you can direct the donations.
If you provide commercial drone services, you can set the “Hire Me” button to display this on your profile. Once other community members click on this button, they'll be prompted to complete a brief online form (that will be sent to you via email) to tell you about an upcoming event for which they'd like to hire you.
To set these buttons, simply go your profile page and for each button that you wish to display, turn the setting to “On!”
Where can I find non-copyrighted music to add to my video?
We all know that great music on our videos can make a big difference in how people respond to it (plus, having non-copyrighted music makes it much easier to promote the video in other venues). There are several online sites that offer great options for non-copyrighted music that can be used to accompany your footage; by doing a simple online search you should be able to find a site with some tunes you love.
Does AirVuz offer sponsorship?
AirVuz does provide sponsorship to a very limited number of drone racing and FPV freestyle pilots. While we expect to expand our sponsorship roster in the future, at this time, we are not looking to expand our sponsored pilot roster.
Does AirVuz support mobile platforms?
The AirVūz web platform is fully mobile-responsive and very much designed to accommodate a largely mobile audience.
