The Quadrocopter Company
Established in 2006, Quadrocopter began as a one stop solution for drones sales, support, and training – with a focus on aerial cinematography equipment. As a leader in the sUAS industry, we have recently transitioned into multiple industry verticals to support customer needs.
Michael DiGrandi

Mike joined the Quadrocopter team in 2017 and has been pushing the industry forwards ever since. His hands on approach, and ability to relate to real world drone flying allows him to provide excellent customer support.
Adele Scholl

Obsessed with aerial angles, Adele Scholl has been involved in the UAS before a drone was a drone. Since 2000, she and her husband Jeff Scholl, started capturing content from the sky.
Her experience in the UAS and filming industry, led to her Quadrocopter, a sales, support and training facility for drones and UAS platforms. Marketing, purchasing and sales are a few of her daily duties at the QC headquarters. Adele enjoys talking to the customers, finding the exact systems that will fit their needs and the applications that they are created for.
Jeff Scholl
Chief Engineer, Full Scale Pilot
Jeff Scholl since a young age has been absorbed with flying devices. Flying full scale planes at age 16 was no small task. Jeff continued his love for aviation and holds a commercial instrument rating on full scale aircraft. In the late 90s, he started thinking about putting cameras on his flying machines. Since that time in the 90’s Jeff has developed several different HeliCam platforms.
Jeff joined forces with Quadrocopter in 2010, sharing his knowledge in this industry and helping others achieve the highest quality of aerial perspectives.
Henry Valentino
Director of Sales, Full Scale Pilot
Henry has more than 26 years of experience in building, financing and managing companies in the data communications, telecommunications, streaming media and retail management industries. He founded, built and sold several innovative technology companies.
For over 20 years, Henry has been a private pilot and owned his own planes. Together with his business background and aviation history, he joined the team at Quadrocopter. Seeing the sky as the limit, he is excited to see this industry grow and evolve.
Quadrocopter started back in 2006 before ready-to-fly systems existed. We have old school roots and new school technology – the best of both worlds.
