You will have to connect the controller to a computer. Power on the controller Once on wait for boot-up Swipe down from the top of the screen to access Android menu Choose the USB connected and choose Turn on USB Storage Hit OK Your computer should now recognize the controller as a drive...

Sunny weather in the summer will help. It will solar load the ground making it hotter. It will make the water evaporate quicker making those areas cooler.

It's possible to find leaks with a thermal. In the summer when hot the water leaks will appear cold and in the winter vice versa. Farmers with drones do this often to find broken irrigation lines and to look for too much watering in sections.

AVUSI has these Trusted Operator certificates that they make you pay a lot of money for. The college I work at part time thought about going that route, but didn't. APSA is the Airborne Public Safety Association and offers a course called BPERP (Basic Proficiency Evaluation for Remote Pilots)...

Working in Public Safety, I see TFR's as being a totally misunderstood point when flying. Whether an agency is operating under Part 107 or Part 91, TFR's are misunderstood. As part of a solid preflight check, the RPIC MUST check for TFR's in their area. In areas where it is rare for TFR's to...

I just want to add. You stated comparing mesh to the LiDAR. Compare the point cloud from your photogrammetry to the LiDAR point cloud. You can use Cloud Compare, it's free. Shift the LiDAR data to your data. Show the engineers your RMSE (I hope you used check points). They should be able to...

What was your RMS? If your RMS as an example is 2 to 3 cm, the problem isn't your data, it's the older data. 0.64m is 64 cm and is not that high quality. How many check points were used in the LiDAR data? You can 100% compare data from different times, dates and data. I compare my...

Its a somewhat unfair question. The Matrice is a new drone packing the newest technology, while the Autel is a dated drone that is creeping closer to End of Life. Both will do the job you need, but if you are going to offer other services the Matrice is a better tool. Basic construction...

What is your friend hoping to get from this? Is this just for visualization of the property does he want absolute accuracy to include elevations for contours. Some points to think about Below 80 70 overlap (You can go lower, but with such a large project I'd be careful since you do not want to...

Do you have any links to any relevant news articles to share?

If you want the pedantic answer, then you cannot fly directly over people unless you have a drone meeting Category 1 -4 or a waiver. The P4RTK will never meet the OOP Categories. To be fully compliant with the rules you would have use viewing a combination of the screen and your drone which you...

Right now on the Mavic sister site, there is a Mavic 3 M for sale at a good price. The forum member has a decent history so it seems legit.

To collect images, it is similar to mapping with RGB. You just need an app to plan your grid missions. Pilot 2 works as well as Pix4d Capture Pro and probably some others. The images saved are RGB, Green, Near Infrared, Red, Red Edge and are not closed source meaning other software can process...

I do not offer this service, but I did do a capstone on a similar use case. I obtained my Pix4D certification for Pix4Dfields and they have several exercises that pertain to this. The course taught how to use either a multispectral camera or RGB camera to create outputs. Either could be used to...

After doing some research, the weight of the sUAS.
