    X7 camera for mapping and 3d pointclouds

    Hi All Anyone used the 24mp stills from the x7 with Pix4d, DroneDeploy or MME. Using the I2 with the X4 which has Mech Shutter and getting pretty good results, just wondering whether the results from the X7 were that much better it would justify the costly upgrade Thanks George

    UK MOD restricts use of Drones on UK establishments

    The MOD ban still stands for all UK sites. The site at Feltwell is Controlled by USAF. It’s not in a no fly zone and the guys at the facility were supportive of the UAV and fairly high ranking, so with the risk assessment and flight plan in place and a notification to ATC at both Lakenheath and...

    About to buy a Matrice 210 for surveying.

    The key to success for mapping / photogrammetry is the camera. I use the Inspire 2 when the wind may be an issue (and it does look professional) with the x4s. It has a mechanical shutter which is said to be better suited to single images as it helps cut down motion Blur. (Also use the Phantom 4...

    How much time and effort is required to obtain the PfCO to cover fixed wing, is an update to your ops manual and a flight test?

    UK Day Rates to Charge

    I tried very hard to get to one of the training days, was interested in the ebee and the fixed wing PfCO, but at the time other business was not allowing the time. How did you find the training? Originally I was of yet same opinion as you, £200 per day and trained to get the fixed wing PfCO was...

    UK MOD restricts use of Drones on UK establishments

    Chaps, all very much appreciated, very helpful info. The survey I have lined up for next week, the client has taken a common sense approach, and agreed to review the mapping photos captured. At this site it’s not the building that are sensitive, it what goes on inside them. The only restriction...
