    What next after Phantom 4 Pro?

    I'm going to have to say... it depends! It REALLY depends on what you do now and want to do in the future with your drone. I bought a Mavic 3 after I sold my P4P2 and was EXTREMELY disappointed.

    How to bill for services

    Thanks for this response! I do provide orthos every week, flown using DroneDeploy app and processed on Maps Made Easy. I paid for a year of processing becuase they gave me a significant discount and it only cost $350 for up to 8GP per map processing. The results are "good enough" for this...

    Newbie question; recommended introductory flight planning, mapping &/or photogrammetry software

    Thank you, you are a wise man! I am having lunch in a couple of weeks with a contractor I am doing work for who also happens to be the president of the local commercial GC association. I'm hoping to get some better insight from him regarding what other companies are charging. I agree that...

    How to bill for services

    Thanks for your response! I don't charge quite as much for real estate. I typically bundle drone with photography services so the price is in line with what other photographers charge. Florida is similar in that you can only charge what realtors will pay and they are typically paying out of...
