Absolutely! We are currently designing the payload bay to be flexible and hold a variety of different cameras, everything from DSLRs to LiDAR.

Glad you found our work impressive! Looking forward to getting in touch.

Glad you mentioned those applications, we are actively looking into them. We have been trying to get in touch with operators in that space to get their feedback and see how we can tailor our design for their needs. We currently don't have a set price for the UAV, but it would be approximately...

Hi R.Perry, very good points. I will try to address as many of your concerns as possible. 1) The UAV disassembles into a box that can be mounted ontop of a standard vehicle or placed in the back of a pickup truck. 2) Could you please clarify the concern with 10,000 ft. max altitude? The...

Our team has been working away at building a solar+electric UAV designed to carry out large mapping projects. The SW-96 Solar Plane can fly for up to 72 hours with a 2 kg payload and cover 150 hectares per hr. We recently conducted a 10 hour flight test and wanted to share the update. Video...

Very cool, are your customers operating in remote areas for brush fires or within cities and towns?

We are building larger UAVs that can cover 1000 acres - 50,000 acres in 6 hours. Would something like that benefit these types of projects? We have been mainly focusing on government work thinking private stuff might be too small.

Very cool, is it for the government or private entity? And how long does one full project take?

How far away is the object you are photographing?

Check out the Matebook X Pro i7

You will have to make tradeoffs, I do a lot of video editing on both laptop and desktop. I use adobe since I get the whole suite of software like After Effects and Illustrator. If you are set on laptop and travel a lot then you may want a lighter laptop. Getting something like a workstation...

Are you set on a laptop? A desktop will give better performance for the same price point. Lots of different options out there, but I highly recommend getting the most powerful CPU you can (e.g. i7) since video editing is CPU intensive. I use to be a big fan of Apple, but I found that their...

We have a pilot project coming up with the BC Fire Dept. to detect and monitor forest fires. We will be flying approximately 15000 acres a day. Our altitude will range from about 200 m to 500 m above ground cruising at 20 knots. For our RGB camera we are fairly set on the Sony RX1R ii 42 MP, but...

Have you considered using fixed wing UAVs or is quad the way to go for this type of mission?

Very cool, how large in area were the shore erosion projects?
