From 300 feet above the beaches, parks, and streets of Brighton and Hove, he has captured these stunning images of city landmarks, as you have never seen them before.
He had to spend six months training before qualifying as a drone pilot with the Civil Aviation Authority.
When his devices are up in the air - obeying strict regulations about when and where to fly - Eddie can see the images taken on a Go-Pro camera through a screen - while he stands on the ground.
