Both of us already know that the video output that comes straight out of both types of drone is fantastic quality, same goes for knowing it's best to use smaller drones for the tight spaces and up-close-and-personal shots. What it boils down to is client expectation and perception. Certain...

I think the one of the problems you might encounter will revolve around real estate 'clients' seeing a mini drone and sneering at it as not fitting in with their idea of a 'professional' drone (not anything new... quite a few posts detailing this over the last few years). Also: you'll probably...

I think that's the real ongoing problem for a lot of people... this ‘Fixed certain issues and optimized overall app quality’ nonsense. DJI really needs to state exactly what the 'issue' was and what's been 'fixed'. Too much of this generic obfuscation going on.

I'm watching your escalating problem(s) with horror and I genuinely hope that all this Federal flailing around to destroy the domestic American marketplace for DJI and Autel drones does lose traction and peter out. Best wishes.

"...and the price is similar to something like a Skydio X10...". OUCH! Not in any way affordable to the average Joe then. We've been spoiled for the last 8 years - DJI and Autel pricing their kit at a level that gives pretty much anyone the opportunity to build a career as a professional...

Try tapping it to see if anything pops up.

I'll be interested to read any drone-use reviews too... Been considering these type of glasses for a couple of years now and this is the first model I've seen that is priced at a level that's worth a punt.

...perhaps... But I'm pretty sure the word 'peaceful' didn't feature in the effort.

"...Finally made a drone that actually competes..." Parrot was the first to release a consumer class drone with a 1" sensor (Anafi), beating DJI to the draw - as well as a drone that was capable of a full 180 degree camera pitch - zenith to nadir (Anafi again). At one point Parrot, like Autel...

Agree 100%. For what you get under the hood: Resolve is by far the best bang for buck. Especially when you compare it dollar for dollar with the likes of Adobe bloatware. The fully licensed version will earn it's keep.

To all intents, it sounds like the roll arm might be slightly deformed (is this what you pinched with thumb & forefinger at 9 and 3 o'clock?)

Just as a matter of interest: are you asking whether someone else will shoulder the burden and expense of processing something you might be able to process if you invested the requisite funds into a license for Agisoft metashape or similar?

One standard for 'them' and another for us... couldn't agree more, but what needs to be taken into account is that the licenses and fees being paid to the FAA by Amazon and all the other drone delivery fatcats represent massive and regular income compared to how much the Aviation Authorities...

Very interesting article - a modern reflection of a lot of the work I'm commissioned to do (inspect & survey heritage buildings to determine state, condition and disposition). Well written.
