It will help to have the link to the FAA 2 year refresher material here or in general in your Facebook or online platforms. Reason? It is so convoluted to get to it :)

Thanks so much for this crucial information

I was flying near an amphitheatre out here and heard the thup-thup-thup before I saw the military tandem rotor heli came over the hill right toward where my drone was - a craft that big was hard to tell how LOW it was, so after that, I don't care to ever try 400+

Wow

What if they have or dont have a remote id ?

Not lannc anymore (theft problems).

interesting work, appreciate your content. Could you post a video of a pet search to see what it looks like? Appreciate it if you can.

What about filming a skyline or just freelancing? Do I need to take the part 107 test, or would I be ok with just taking the t.r.u.s.t exam?

Kind of dampens ones enthusiasm for going to federal parks, doesn't it? I think we are now living in the golden age of hobby drones, for it will be closing, clearing the skies for the big money drones and those that take there test and pay the FAA shakedown! It's a pay to play racket with the FAA as the gateway for one can not make money with drones unless one takes the Part 107 test and then pay the FAA shakedown. Then about 99 % of the drone videos here on TH-cam are pushing DJI drones and since China makes all the hobby drones and much of the high end drones, banning Chinese drones and parts will clear the skies of hobby drones for those that will pay to play!

I love the "What's your budget" approach

Great question! Can you fly inside a building that is inside a waiver required area? Did you get an answer to this question? Thanks!

Is it worth doing if you have misdemeanor marijuana possession charges (more than one but last one being over 10 years ago)TIA

I use to always wonder about that. So many "pro' photographers, will scream about contrast and how it makes the picture professional, or the video cinematic. I use contrast, and as you mentioned, I actually want to make sure that everything in the picture is actually visible.

I got my private pilot license in 2012 and thought "Hmm...I wonder if I already have an FTN." Lo and behold I did. Step 1 already done and I barely had to lift a finger.

Very impressive buisness Ryan has made using his m30t with spotlight and loud speaker 200x zoom many more features. If he shows up to a search, i am confident that if the pet or item is in the area, he will find it. If not, then it must not be in the area. I called him and he found a small piece that came off of my airplane and landed in a big field and he found it within 15mins and i would have searched for countless hours or days. Awesome interview 👏 ✅️💯

How long do you search for a pet before determining that it can't/isn't found? And how do you bill for that?

If you have a drone under 250 g do you have to take the FAA trust test?

Way to be an innovator! Thanks for sharing a very impressive business 👏

Short answer: not mine as i jam the world

Lol you give them to much credit. They found him because he wasn't hiding first of all and they saw him. Had a Helicopter about landing my backyard illegally and when I called an f a a they still can't find out who it was and that's a helicopter. But yea they can find a drone operator I sec lol

Can the cops track or stop styrofoam made drones with aftermarket parts built specifically for deploying thermite and napalm on tops of Government workers homes!??? Yes 👍🏻 it’s rite there you can see it as your home burns TYR 🐜🏴‍☠️

The US corporation have no authority or business with what a free man is doing short of not causing any loss injury or harm. I would not consent to victimless crimes where the corporate entity decides to try to act as a man and bring charges. This is not possible under common law, just remember do no loss injury or harm and they can kick rocks with their statute policy & code enforcement, save it for the true slaves which is 97% of the people.

Category 4 makes room for ASX

Thank you for sharing this . Very informative and straight to the topic. What the best way to share maps like 3D or 2D maps with a client . Is it to build your own website . Or just it's simple as a link?

If I have the DJI mini series (under .55 lbs), can I fly it anywhere then.

So if I’m 15, can I still buy and fly like an FPV drone for like practice and then when I turn 16 I can apply for my license? Or do I need my license to fly at all?

if youre on a budget or just starting, buy used Phantom 4 PRO V2 (about 500-700$). It's a photogrammetry beast even still in 2024. And if you want to do photogrammetry and video only, pick Dronelink. You can automate almost everything, even shooting a facade, which helps a lot (I've been flying manually before)

I want to get into drone flying but to be honest all of the videos showing people attacking or threatening any amateur or professional drone operators makes me hesitant. Karens getting me arrested and the pressure of having to record encounters for my own safety just for enjoying the craft seems daunting.

Tech law enforcement uses doesn't need RID... DJI or not. Aerial Armour and others like it track your signals used to communicate your drone with the controller.

Is it worth with the dji drone band happening?

Question: Once I have got on the mail my license, do I need still to carry the printed certificate or it is optional?

"You need to learn, right from the beginning, "Worst Case Scenario"" I have always agreed with this concept. Plan B first, then Plan A.

I just built me a 2.5" dji 03 whoop. I got other drones to teach with, but I think I can get all their games recorded as well to show them what I mean. Even 2 radios to buddybox. Radiomaster pocket for the kids and I just got a fatfish f16 with a analog vrx so I can visually observe as well as have the live feed in my hand. 🧠. I could use a better laptop and simulator tho for obvious reasons.

Clients don't pay for models, they pay for actionable data to make decisions on. While cheaper options allow you to 'make' a map or model, you can't build an income stream off of that. Being able to draw a straight line measurement is not strong actionable data. Conversations like this are frustrating because you are discussing commercial solutions without any discusion about professionals actually use them. Its drone fodder for brand newbies, but not professionals. A more advanced conversation would much more helpful.

I've been having a hard time with this, and you solve all my problems in 2 min. Thank you!!!

David is the 7 day course really free?

Good Lord, all this to fly a drone, essentially a toy...wow.

Congress pushed the bill with 420-2 votes. Republicans want to ban anything China related (Huawei and TikTok) and two democrat senators from Arizona (Sinema and Kelly) are voting yes to the ban. If all republicans and these two democrats vote for the ban then that gives them 51 votes. Bye bye DJI, leader of the drone market.

Mine is currently orbiting the Earth. I lost it forever.

I’ll do what I want. Rockets and kites aren’t restricted and those are uncontrolled. I can avoid conflict. I’ll do as I have for 30 years

Nah I do what I want.

400 feet is darn high, Its really too high to get footage that is recognizable other than geography .

Insightful discussion! 👍

"Go bunch your sister" 🤣

1640... had to do it at least once 😂

Find your highest vantage point, unleash your drone's full potential-400 feet above your launch

Crop Dusters: 500 what?!
