Just unboxed mavic 3T, while it technically can be set to 1500m, it is still subject to geo zone limitations where 500m is max height if there is an airport within 50km. Now, I can totally see situations where it is important and legally acceptable to exceed 500m due to terrain, observation of...

No, it is worse than nothing. It can cause the searcher to think there is no person there because they can’t see it with this tool, and not search the area again.

Don’t forget size. It is huge.

I have seen the same, some dude in Texas I believe. If you would recall, that scenario was marginal at best and the red blob was only a few pixel in size and only visible under certain situations. He was able to see it because he was explicitly looking and adjusting for it. The 160x120 sensor...

Guys, this is not a SAR drone. It is an inspection drone. At 160x120 thermal, you are not going to see anything unless you are really close like less than 50-100ft. This can be used to inspect thermal characteristic of an object when you are say 20-30 feet away. DJI is going a dangerous...

I would love to get a battery with built in strobes. Top and/or sides. I think it would be easy to make for DJI at least.

Instead of having the led beacon as a modular accessory, DJI should build the beacon into the battery. This way, operators would have the option to use another accessory, and it would also make the beacon compatible with all DJI Mavic 2. We cannot turn the beacon off and on in flight as there...

Your boson plus zoom combo is amazing and is definitely superior to the enterprise dual. The only reservation I have is in the support should something goes wrong. No offense to you at all, but I won’t know who and how support will be like, nor do I know whether this product will exist or be...

There are two different max speeds. One is max endurance air speed, the max time you can stay in the air. Which is sound 25kmph for Mavic 2. The other is max range airspeed, which is much faster at close to 50kmph. I am surprise that max endurance speed is not 0 hover, which implies that he...

Ok, it can be done. But you got to be like them.

Since this would be used at night, to may want to add some lights as an option to this unit and link it to the landing light so it can be app controlled. Would be helpful to get a visible confirmation of thing you see on thermal closer up.

what would the video interface and control look like? Will the boson be transmitted and displayed on a separate monitor or are you able to integrate that into the same video feed to the app? Saw this pick features on droneDJ today. This is what the M2E Dual should have been. Looking forward to...

Impressive. Is the gimbal able to handle the increased load?

Why does the phone or cable matter at all? Can’t the Mavic be flown even with just the controller?

This seems to be terrible idea. Most cruise ship move pretty fast, like close to 40kmph, meaning just standing still with the deck is moving at 2/3 max flying speed of the Mavic. Landing at that speed would be difficult at best, add a bit of headwind and it would be impossible to even approach...
