Seems like this thermal vision on a drone is every hunter’s friend! Lol I take it you can search an area for deer with your thermal drone and hunt that area, correct ?
Depends on your state hunting and drone laws. In my state, Alabama, there are no drone specific laws. It is legal to scout from a motor vehicle. Also, per the law, as soon as you park the vehicle and shut the engine off, you technically could shoot a deer from that vehicle(from private land for instance, laws related to distance from public roads apply). So likewise the drone can be used to scout and the hunt can happen, technically, immediately upon landing. Private and public land enforcement can be quite different. Personally, I have not used it for my own scouting and get a lot of enjoyment out of helping other people, deer recovery, scouting/survey.
An airtag on the dog would possibly have helped. But this is a pretty sparse area and people with cell phones need to be near by. Still it's a good idea to have some sort of tracker on all animal pets.
Be cool if we had something we could mount to the PSDK port and scan the area for the tag(not sure if an airtag has that range) to supplement the thermal. Could be real helpful when the canopy is super thick with is almost all of spring/summer until the leaves drop in the thicker wooded area.
Its a Fawn around here ( Texarkana ) that lost its spots about a month ago. I found a Buck losing its velvet a few days ago. Looked like a 4 point. Also. I noticed my Mavic 3 ( regular ) early in the morning just after sunrise, if the rear sensors are facing the sun they go off but there is nothing there.
Very cool to see the dear you fond at 20 min in. It really does show that this system can find a dog.

Yep...very close.

Yep, I thought I'd missed the spotted fawns around here.
Great point about the sun/glare...probably blinding the sensor.
@@STRThermal here is the Buck loosing his velvet.

my friend lost his dog and it was found near county jail which was 4 miles away.
Did the dog get found?
Yep, after 3 weeks on the run, she came to the customer the very next day in this same area.
