Just trying to get educated on the best options out there. I use a macbook as my primary computer. I do have it split using bootcamp to do some PC things. I am in the process of ending my career, and learning a number of new things so I have some side hustles. One of them is drones. I have been working on photo and video skills for a bit now, and am trying to dial in my mapping and 3D ability. As primarily a part timer I don't want to get into a bunch of subscriptions at the moment, but want to sharpen my skills/knowledge. If it turns out to be something I start doing commercially then the subscriptions are part of the cost of doing business. Are there any Mac users out there that can recommend the most user friendly options for mapping and photogrammetry modeling? I'd prefer to run everything on my macbook if possible. Currently I am running three different drones via a
RC Pro 2.... a mini 4 pro, air 3s, mavic 4 pro. Thanks in advance
 
Rod,
Thanks a lot for replying. It looks like most of their stuff requires a mac with an M1 or newer chip. I'm a mac-intel. I have my mac partitioned, however I have windows 10 currently. Upgrading to W11 is a whole 'nother helmet fire. It seems I am one upgrade behind on lots of this.

Well I'm crApple for mobile devices.
My wife has been using a Mac for a PC, few years now.
It didn't take long for her stop asking me for help.

There is no right click?
Let me know when you figure that out. :) 👌

Anyways, there is a lot of good members here.
