    Canadian drone law

    Ya I like that one as well. Interestingly it has a different radius for the heliports (at least the one near my house). Ya it seems the NRC's site has a 5KM radius for helipads and 9KM for airports. Airmap has 9km for both. chris.

    How to shoot satellite-style imagery of an area

    I have used one of the many apps available to do the mission flight/image capture and then I was playing around with opendronemap to do the processing and produce a geo-referenced image that can be overlaid onto existing maps. It worked well but I had flown a little low (30m) and ended up with...

    Ocusync and Wi-Fi

    I have seen this happen as well. It depends on what channel the rc and aircraft picks as well as the channel your wifi is using. 5ghz won't have an issue. Just 2.4. I have found that if I go into the setting and select a channel manually (usually at the far end of the spectrum) I can get my...
