It’s because the truth doesn’t matter anymore

A remote pilot certificate never expires. That doesn’t mean you don’t have to keep taking the periodic test to keep it up-to-date.

Just because it was manufactured in China does not mean it’s controlled if you’re putting all the firmware on it then you’re in control

So true I’ll be sticking with Chinese drones for as long as I can better bang for your buck DJI So true I’ll be sticking with Chinese drones for as long as I can better bang for your buck DJI The only reason they’re trying to outlaw them with the fake security risk is cause American companies...

Thanks for sharing. Not sure why you would say myth or fools errand when it’s obviously proven science. It’s just a matter of time before somebody comes out with the version for drones. Hopefully somebody out there can try printing them. The sound is a real problem, and if it cuts that I’d buy...

I confirm what he said. I’ve had to get a lot of zero altitude autos and if you keep it under 100 feet you got a good chance of getting it..

I don’t get them from the site. They call me when they have a job. so hopefully you’ve registered on their site.

I didn't mean you per-se. It's already too late - tons of nubes out there willing to do these missions. Me, I made my vig I am done, and the worst part is now I don't even fly for fun any more, because now it feeling like a chore. I make too much in my day job to start a business, so that's it.

I just think it’s wrong to call them bottom feeders they’re just taking what work they can.

Well, if you’re just trying to learn you’re not really worried about profit I have earned about $5000 a year on Dronebase for the past two years but for me it’s just more of a hobby. At least I paid for all my drone equipment

Dronebase jobs require very little skill, so no doubt that’s why they don’t pay much.

Well my understanding is that DJI will release RID for M2P in December, so I need that delay.

His latest youtube video claims that RID will be delayed - not sure until when, He claims the FAA is working out the details.

I do condo inspections all the time. You make a map overhead with 3-D enhancement then you do facades on all four sides. Drone deploy knows how to stitch these together into a very nice 3-D image.

WIth FlyGuys you will deal with several different mission planners. Mostly the are great.
