I typed Access Point Drone in Google and this is the first video that popped up. I just felt like the concept if so awesome what with all the relevancy of me being a network engineer and all. lol
I don't think I could convince the company I work for to purchase me a $12.5k drone for surveying :p Very cool PoC though. You did a great job with this video.
Looks like a decent upfront investment (drone looked like it goes for 10-12k) but you could easily recoup the cost over the course of a few surveys. The health and safety concerns I could see being a concern for customers. I feel like a good insurance policy would cover those concerns though.
I think at all depends on how many warehouse survey or similar you do. If you regularly perform surveys where you need to hire a cheery picker i think the investment pays for itself. H&S can be satisfied with RAMS and insurance. But you need to make sure the operator is fully trained and comfortable flying drones inside.
The smaller drones officially cannot lift anything. So you will not find it on a data sheet. So I thought I would see what was possible. And it was helpful when using the bigger drone to know that the drones can lift more than advertise.
Can this be used for 2.4G surveys? My understanding of non-WiFi alliance devices operating in 2.4G is that they often wreak havoc on that entire spectrum.
Peter actually doesn't need a drone. He can just wave his magic wand at the AP saying Leviosa!!! 🤪
so the beast was worth the effort! glad to see, thank you for your time!
Very cool Peter!
"APOD" ;-) Nice, Peter!!!!
excellent! Precisely the kind of content I'm looking for. Great uses of newer tech for us older school folks!
Very well done and nice proof of concept!
Well done Peter
This is a great video showing one of many use cases where a drone can be used in Wi-Fi! Great video Peter!
Hi Peter. I’ve been looking for your channel since the Christmas meal at Beverley Arms. Great to see you launched 👍😊 Cheers Ian
Great video. Well done Peter
Very interesting solution for warehouse surveys, thanks for the video amigo.
Great video Peter, thanks for sharing! :)
Very neat! Well done, Peter 🤩🙌🏻
Great result Peter. Maybe a new use opportunity for drones 🤔 Looking forward to your next video 👍
Based on the thumbnail, I think we either need a bigger drone oder smaller AP. 😎
I'm looking for your first and future TH-cam-Videos!
Mmmmm...... I wonder what solution did i try...... I guess you will need to watch and find out.
@@MackenzieWiFi I'm already hyped up and will watch your Video in 46 minutes. 😀
Awesome
Awesome project and nice video, thanks for sharing!
Great alternative! 😁
Let's see if this project is going to fly. 😇

next time put a sidekick-2 on a drone and make a site survey :)

great stuff Peter! how many did you crash in the outtakes? :)
Only one drone was destroyed in the making of this video 😂
Really interesting experiment but the cost would surely make this impractical, let alone the H&S concerns.

Nice commercial for Mist, Ventev and DGI drones. Why do a lift capability test with a jug of water when you could have just looked that up?

extremely well done. Can you share the flight time you get with the final payload and using the Drone battery to power the AP?
Around 25-30 mins
