Does anyone here use the DJI Gs Pro that can help answer a couple of questions?

help answer a couple of questions?

... and your questions are?

How accurate is the software and can it work at night? I need to fly over a house owned by the client at night in the dark and drop down to take a video or pictures then come back. Their is about 10’ of room between the house and a tree. This is all legal because the client owns the house and I will be on their property the entire time.

How accurate is the software

Be aware that GSPro depends on GNSS accuracy. It depends on the satellites 'visible' to the aircraft. Usually expect at least a variation of plus/minus 10 ft. (or worse)

can it work at night?

Yes - see my previous explanation.

Their is about 10’ of room between the house and a tree.

That's to narrow - i would not risk it with an automated flight.

If you are trying to fly that mission manually be advised that all visual obstacle avoidances on the drone do not work at night.

I’m wondering if I test the mission during the day when I can be right there and watch it drop down between the house and the tree if it will be just as accurate at night if I have as many satellites. [emoji848]

Good strategy!

if it will be just as accurate at night if I have as many satellites

I would not trust that. Please read this: GPS accuracy

Interesting. Well that decides that. I’m not taking the chance.
