This expands some possible activity at 3dR since they had already aligned with Intel in another area... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have a differing view of professionals pushing the edge of the envelope to accomplish a task over an amateur, and there's considerable evidence if this from the small scale FBO operation all the way up through commercial transport leveraging labor and regulations to assure better profit...

If the software was integrated well with the FC it would work pretty well. The only question is the directions it would be auto programmed to turn for obstacle clearance. Sonar would work also but the LIDAR would function faster with more accuracy.

Bart, You simply have to sharpen your avatar image...

Wasn't Ellis affiliated with 3DR in some manner recently? I vaguely recall him or someone raising money for some LIDAR work on DIYdrones.

The guy was willing to do what had to be done to get what he got, so kudos to him. Now to get the individual COA's and a Pilot's License If you really want to do it, the following links provide a good foundation, with examples, for all that's needed to be done. Very shortly I should be...

I was referring to a military environment but all of those were conducted in ATA's that functions pretty much the same as the civilian versions. There is so much traffic the larger bases have to use the same traffic methods used here. Some of the terminology changes a little but the heavy...

Interesting analogy. From experience I can say that TCAS on UAV's causes full scalers to have unwarranted panic attacks and refuse airspace entry until the UAV's are 3 to 5 miles clear. They fail to take into account collisions, and they have happened, have every time been due to the manned...

Thing is, it's the public that is getting poisoned by negative media so it's the public that needs the positive accentuated. From there goodwill runs uphill to local and higher lawmakers, and the media. We, and those closely associated with our products and aircraft, are generally already aware...

An ideal event would have a group of multirotor people at an outside open area the public was invited to to view demonstrations of the various levels of equipment and functions we have in use. We spend far too much time educating ourselves about things most already know and ignore the people...
