If you actually read what I'm writing...I'm not having trouble with establishing it - what I'm asking is what others are charging so that we can get a range as I'm basically setting the tone for the particular area that we are in. If you've been around drone business at all, in almost all the...

It's a line item deal and obviously varies between jobs - I'd say most jobs <5 acres could easily be done within 1 hr (onsite time) maybe 2 if you fly it more than once (we always fly redundant back-to-back flights with different cards just in case one fails or you get bad imagery). More if we...

Yes I totally understand competitive bidding...we bid on contracts all the time but we aren't in a competitive bid situation - we are giving this particular county a benchmark to estimate if drone work is worth taking in-house or farming out to a independent contractor. I'm only listing the...

Sorry if this has been brought up before but recently a local county has asked for hourly rates for general topographic survey (not survey grade - more like plan check ball park 1' accuracy) / general inspection and post processing hourly rates. I don't want to go too low nor be way out of...

I would fly the mavic pretty much everywhere...afterall isn't that the point...it's basically to bring with you...so how does one represent that in a picture? I do a fair bit of video but rarely take photos from any of my drones but I do have a couple so here's one that may work... (yes this...

Nice...I tried the heli thing in the late 90's but didn't have the patients for it...but now I can make a large scale 3d plane hover...(still easier then a heli hover I have a feeling) :D

As I'm red-green color blind I vote for neither...but I'll deal with either. Best orientation method for night flying is still an onboard cam using ground references....LEDs are not the greatest reference tools when LOS is greater than a couple hundred feet....(depending on your quad size and...

Helis should count...as you actually need skill to just hover one :)

A lot....the ones I actually fly.... AP Rigs: DJI S900 w/ GH4 (dual operator only), Inspire pro x5r , Phantom 2, 3DR Solo Mapping Rigs: Custom fixed wing, Pelican (fixed wing), Inspire x3, couple waterproof quads, and the small guys from above Fun: Loving the 4s Neato 180 set to full stupid...

Welcome Luke - I'm just north of you - should have some fantastic spots to film down your way...if your ever up this way a group of us flies almost every weekend for fun and there's always room for more to join...

my only restraint from getting our 333 is that once the FAA finally gets their ducks in a row (next year maybe - I don't believe for a second that they'll make this years deadline - they haven't made any of the rest and looks like they'd rather focus on other areas of the industry) then mostly...

I love that my kids have begun to peak an interest in flying at our home as well...not due to the drone racing but rather seeing me flying and wondering what its like. I strapped the goggles on them and they loved it...my son has already mastered the head in driving and it's only been a...

Hello...my name is Tony - I've been modelling since I can remember - started off in the usual manner with some ground based RC stuff - finally venturing into the air a few years ago...now I fly a nice mix of planes and multirotors mostly - On the planes side I love 3D so I try to venture out and...

If you ever want to venture outside of multirotors (or get into larger multirotors) then I would suggest the Futaba...it can basically do anything and everything you need and want it to do in the future...the gimbals are awesome and it won't break the bank... If you just want a radio for...

Agreed the Inspire is one of our favorite commercial rigs as well..still portable and easy to fly - camera quality is awesome...dual operation is great but the landing gear can get in frame when and require multiple takes but otherwise the inspire performs like a large rig that acts like a...

Nevermind...NOOB101 in session... Well chock one more up on the noob list...I forgot to hit DJI's stupid little hardware unluck in the A2 assist before wasting tons of time and not figuring out what the flashing red lights meant...won't do this one again...leave it here just in case someone...

Ok any S900 users out there...experiencing any issues with the latest IMU update... I updated the GH4HD gimbal and it also updated the IMU firmware...my copter was operating fine prior to this update (expect for some jello issues which I think I've got nailed down - but can't test due to this...

Looks like a wicked little crew...:D

Sweet setup - I'm dying to get my 180 going. Looks to be a nice size. I'm also thinking of replacing my qav250 with a 210 setup as the 250 seems awed illy large now. Plus the g10 is total crap - mine survived my noob status but decided to delam over the last few weeks - put her back together...
