Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) began being constructed many decades ago. Recently - in line with technological developments - there has also been a progression of its expansion, both among the lay public and its dynamic integration within the security services. One of the desired functionalities of the drones is the continuous measurement of air pollution at the scene of a fire. This paper deals with the question of whether drones, due to the rotation of their rotors, do not affect the values of air pollution, the concentration of which is detected by a detector located on the drone. To confirm or refute this hypothesis, an experiment was designed and conducted, which should simulate the conditions arising from the fire. A drone was also used, which is intended for direct reconnaissance of the terrain at the place of intervention by fire protection units. The continuous concentration of selected dominant toxic emissions was then measured with a sensitive detector - aspirating smoke detector with continuous air sampling CO, CO2, NO - TESTO 350 – XL The results of this experiment were then processed mathematically and graphically. It was found out that drones have no physical effect on the measurement concentration The results obtained from the experiment are important for drone designers and for firefighters, who are very dependent on reliable data in the event of an intervention.
