It took way too long for a response, but I think this will work to stop the hysteria and knock it off the news cycle. Remember, for those 107 Pilots out there, you can request an SGI Waiver as long as you have a Statement of work in the...

Ssteven fair replied to the thread Mapping a woodland area -advice sought on gimbal pitch settings.I fly timber weekly and fly at 400 feet with a 70-80 overlap with a m3E.

We recently had a SAR mission where we needed to find a most likely deceased individual. The traditional way of just using the sUAS to view the live video stream was how we did find the body. This worked great and allowed us to find the body in...

Does Flight Hub 2 have free version? Are...
