    TurboAce Matrix E with DJI A3 controller and Lightbridge 2

    I have a Matrix E with Gyrox gimbal for Sony NEX 7 or comparable camera (not included) with only a couple of hours flight time, that I have no more use for. For some reason this year I upgraded the controller to the A3/Lightbridge 2 system (a $1500 upgrade), then never flew it. Comes with hard...

    DJI Trade Up Program - opinions

    I just went to check out this trade up program. Sounds like a great thing...for DJI. They offer $148 for a Phantom 3 Pro in "like new/used" condition, which they will then "refurbish" and turn around and sell for over $700. If you want to upgrade, sell it on Craig's List (or other swap app) and...

    AMA Insurance? Renewal

    Here's some help for all of you. The aviation insurance business in general charges way too much for insurance considering the (low) occurrence of accidents actually requiring an insurer to pay up. The IDRA (International Drone Racing Association) has started an insurance program with pricing...

    Cheap Commercial insurance any on heard of theses guys?

    I met these guys (actually a woman that put together the insurance thing) at the Xponential in Denver this year. They are legit and making insurance affordable for the little guy.

    This guy thinks he's helping

    Full disclosure, the other reasons are that I make more money (by a long shot) sitting at my desk at home than I did picking up occasional real estate or event jobs, and the very small market where I live is saturated with Part 107 pilots. Travel for remote inspection jobs was possible, but...

    I'm shutting down commercial operation. Already turned off my website. I guess I should remove myself from this forum too.

    This guy thinks he's helping

    This is a re-post of a thread from Phantom Pilots, and my reply. The professional remote pilot in the linked story has great intentions, but is obviously operating contrary to Part 107 requirements. "Thought this was interesting so I'm sharing it here: Now you can help search for missing...

    Nervous about my first project - a few questions

    It looks like you fly directly over unprotected people on the beach. Are these active participants in the operation? Is this common practice for you? Do you have a waiver?

    Info on creating complete deliverable for Golf Course

    Hi Timmy welcome to the forum. I've done a few golf courses (only 9 hole courses that I have on my site) you can view them at A Higher Perspective, LLC website. I have not done any 3D modeling, only aerial overviews hole by hole and then some additional amenities. There are a couple of different...
