I will admit to having some setting set abusive. I wanted to be able to easily id specific tree species. For me that sometimes means seeing the leaf shapes. I did play around with memory usage and cpu priority a little - but in the end, I just doubled the ram and sometimes process maps in...

I use drone deploy for flight control and WebODM to generate maps. The program will generate normal "pictures" but also generates plant health maps (I guess based on shades of colors), and can make color based topo maps. The system works, but honestly it is not all that strait forward and it...

Honestly, our drones will never take advantage of this technology - but maybe the drones 2-3 generations from now might.

from pictures posted, the privacy fence was about 6' - which is fairly normal for a privacy fence in Texas. The drone was probably hovering around 5'

I did not mention jamming - figured that would get you in trouble with both the FAA and FCC. Based on pictures it looked like a Mavic Pro. I am not sure exactly how those radios work, but am pretty sure they are frequency hopping (and per spec, multi band - but that might just mean the drone...

when it comes to law enforcement, privacy simply does not exist anymore. I have read on other forums where game wardens are going onto private property and planting cellular based "game cameras" Given that they only connect to transmit pictures (they are motion activated, and use no glow IR...

Sorry if this is a self dupe, but I think my anonymous post went to cyber jail. Reading a drone thread in another forum. OP there has a drone problem. Someone is flying a drone in his back yard below his privacy fence level to look into his house windows. Very likely they are either peeping...

Have there been any rumors when models that comply with the FCC transponder rules will be coming out?

Just posted anonymously - now posting logged in. Curious if that makes a difference. Other is in cyber jail, this one came through immediately.

Still slightly off topic, but FedEx beat their delivery date. Ordered the MP2 that replaced my cancelled MA2 On Friday. Came in today.

Litchi (and other 3rd party) support was close enough to essential to me. After a week of having an A2 preordered, I canceled and should be getting a M2P from FedEx Tuesday. As for Fly vs Go. I don’t think they will kill Go, but they are trying to separate their market segments. Last go...

Just to play devils advocate. Section 107.31 says: “(a) With vision that is unaided by any device other than corrective lenses, the remote pilot in command, the visual observer (if one is used), and the person manipulating the flight control of the small unmanned aircraft system must be able...

Unless I am mistaken, WiFi’s and OccuSync use the same publicly available radio bands, but different transmition methods designed for different purposes - wifi was designed for networking computers inside buildings, OccuSync was optimized for flying DJI drones. Given DJI’s AeroScope and...

Just criminals being criminals. Sad that the border is a no fly zone, but I guess this just illustrates why. (Texas law prohibits taking pictures with drones within 25 miles of the border-I think)

Not replacing, but trying to justify my first purchase. I had a M2A on order. I think it is complimentary to the M2P. Smaller, lighter, less expensive, could do everything I want it to. The M2P has a better sensor and probably can handle wind slightly better. Originally I went with the M2A...
