    Inspire 2 with thermal camera SOLD

    This flir camera is not the zenmuse version that dji made. It is a stand-alone camera which cost around 2300 on its own. This whole sale seems pretty fishy to me

    It even showed osmo, powered by flir on the home screen in GO

    Exactly, anything we can offer that will help pay for that thing. In the air or on the ground. It's just funny that it will stabilize and record and do everything it need to on the osmo except show you on the screen. Seems like a simple enough thing to do.

    America may ban foreign made drones for government jobs...

    Our transport Canada mentioned that they wanted to move towards all commercial operators being "compliant operators" which means using compliant drones and do dji or freefly are in their list. Just stuff like microdrones and the falcon x8 and sky ranger

    TB55 batteries

    Ya it's crazy. Ours is gonna be a v1. It's the high res 30hz, might not even be availible in the US. We have had it on our old inspire to try before but I don't really trust that old bird and the camera is way too expensive to risk. There is the new XT app that seemed a lot more geared toward...

    Looks like Dronebase has STOPPED paying...

    Well that is a major overstatement. In Canada the rules are quite clear and the majority of reputable realtors are aware and hire accordingly. There are still rouge pilots and agents but they can risk fines and deal with consequences. Our real estate market in Vancouver in unlike most where...

    TB55 batteries

    Apparently the xt doesn't work even with the adaptor. We were informed by our dealer today that for whatever reason the xt version 1 needs to go back to them for an update that they want $400 us for. It's absolute ludacris that we ordered a m210rtk almost 6 months ago and all we have to show...

    Looks like Dronebase has STOPPED paying...

    Is that even worth the time and investment into insurance and proper flight certification? Charging $130 isn't worth the time of a professional drone pilot that has proper insurance. We won't bother going out for less than $350/hr and 150/hour after

    $20 ? Are you guys crazy? Do t you have insurance and so on to pay for? I wouldn't even fly for my friends for $20. Don't use a company that is probably selling "your" photos to someone else.

    Real estate pay hits rock bottom!

    Yep so true. Every idiot with a drone markets themselves to take "pics" of your house for $100 on craigslist. Commercial and industrial is where it's at. They pay well and seem to do their dodiligence and don't hire people without proper insurance and flight certificates. Let's the mavic and...

    Real estate pay hits rock bottom!

    This is nothing new. Real estate agents are the cheapest people to deal with. With have a $350 minimum charge to go shoot and that's one hour of shooting. We do quite a bit of real estate work, some being with a production company and others for a few agents. The agents always try and get a...

    flying inspire 2 in Vancouver

    This is the map we use to reference. Only have CZ clicked as that is the control zones. Other than that, if you are flying as a hobbyist, just be smart and don't be flying over streets, buildings, people and so on. There are ways to fly in control zone but requires a lot of planning and...

    Today I shot...

    For these shots we were stationed at two points. One was at ground level on the north side of the lions gate. The other location was at the lighthouse at Stanley park. Since we have a standing sfoc, all we do is file for approval with harbour tower. They are pretty good to work with. The...

    X4 for Mapping/Orthophotography

    Using drone deploy and GSpro for whatever reason when using the x5s we didn't get great results. Maybe the cam needed to be recalibrated.
