    DJI A2 Performance/Build Comparisons

    i pick em up by any two opposing arms and look at how it falls when it leaves a nice flat surface.... quad to octo, works good.... might also make sure the cg is set on where the gimbals cg is in relation to the 3rd axis if there is one

    Home Inspector in Arizona Looking at Drone Options for Roof Inspections

    my best friend from childhood is an inspector in Sacramento, been there going on 8-9 years now. he wanted to do this and as a friend i talked him out of it. not saying it is a bad idea, but if your insurance found out your doing this my guess is they will deny a claim or cancel you for doing...

    for something like this you would definately want to learn how with a monitor, ($70) so you can see the aircraft at all times los. once you could actualy do it succesfuly just move your head to the monitor, start learning how to take off and land but still able to look up and see it. So...

    Aerial MOB arm extensions for dji based frames

    you could, it's just that any variance in this angle changes everything. .1 degrees of goes from hovering at 20-30 amps to .0 using this method takes to hover around 9-10 amps..... it sounds different, behaves different. i've even seen that vibration you and i had in the xy8 come and go from...

    when we show up to a set with a octo, 3 axis gimbal, fpv gear, it takes us 30-40 minutes to setup..... with a one man disco it takes me about 5 minutes to fire off. but seriously, go up high enough to see the whole roof then come down on it and scan along in 1080 60p then just slow the footage...

    so-cal, that wasn't directly at your rail comment, it was at airframes and motor counts in general I engineer uav and test more gear in a month than most people see in a lifetime.... I drive 2 hours each way just to get in the wind 3-4 days a week, i'll disagree with your disagreement based on...

    a competent well seasoned pilot could scan 20,000 feet of roof in a couple minutes 2-3 feet over it. you might be better served finding somebody in your area to give you a smokin deal to scan roofs. if it takes 15-20 minutes to fly a roof it'd be a waste of time and risk..... there has to be...

    switching the DJI opto ESC's to sense NICD rather than Lipo ?

    there is no changing a dji esc anything and the voltage protection on them is already disabled.... thats a trick for non simonK esc's to make them work in multirotor.

    2014 - best ESC at the moment?

    I get alot of stuff to test, last spring i got 6 multimate motors...... when we went to bolt them on the wires came out of the case 90 degrees. the wire on a dji arm came out of the motor on the side.... ok... then we went to put props on, one of the 6 adapters wasn't even in the game to be...

    dont fall for the tethering making this any more legal than without, imo it's more dangerous cause you can get caught up in it. Just do what your gonna do and try keeping it on the downlow..... as much as you can, let word of mouth drive your biz and you should do fine, if you pull a local ad on...

    again, that is sd and a security type, if sd is good enough then there ya go. high res hd like a hero3 even silver is way more legible to see problems. nothing is sd anymore...here is the differences between the two.... the big clip in the middle is a 690 line sd camera, the little one on the...

    those carry any hero so you can go from a white to a black with this one, even a hero2 that's not always the case, but a decent rule of thumb. my hex carries a red for 14 minutes, my octo only did 6-8 minutes, just depends. If you went with a delux one like i build they get up to a half hour in...

    difference here is the fc is plug and play, usually,,, it has the voltage regulators, osd, alexmos board inside the frame, it's the plates. Power distro too, inside em is super clean and has very few fail points. There kinda fragille though,,,, there not carbon fiber and aren't really made for...
