Hello Multirotor Forums,

We are FreeSkies, a startup based in Menlo Park, California, and our product is called the Copilot, an app which will revolutionize the way you use your Phantom. What we provide is a brand-new way of flight and video planning, allowing Phantom pilots to achieve and chain together complex and breathtaking shots with an easy-to-use planning interface, and full autonomous control. Our product is aimed at users who desire professional-quality videos, but may not possess the experience to manually fly their Phantom and achieve them.

Our app is currently being developed to support both the iPad and Android tablets, and it will be compatible with both the Phantom 3 and the Inspire 1. It will be available for alpha and beta testing soon. If the concept of this app is something you find interesting, we would be delighted to have you join us as a tester for Copilot. Beta sign-ups and more information about us and our team can be found at our website, freeskies.org.

Additionally, if you are located in the San Francisco Bay Area and would be interested in coming into our offices to meet our team and test our product, please email us at info@freeskies.org.

For direct questions, please do not hesitate to email us at info@freeskies.org as well, or leave a reply below, and we will get back to you as soon as possible.

I recently saw a demo of what these guys are doing and it's super interesting. If they can deliver on what they're trying to do, it's going to be a really exciting step forward.

I am super interested in your app. Just not sure I'm ready to entrust my new P3 to alphaware! Hmmm... let me think about this...

Hi,

Thanks for your interest! Our teams fully understands the risks associated with putting a $1000+ UAV in the hands of a completely autonomous program, and we will be implementing as many safety methods as possible with our release, both in documentation and in the application itself.

Please make sure you sign-up for the beta HERE so we can keep you updated on our development. If you have any further questions, don't hesitate to send us an email at info@freeskies.org.
