    Dronebase- is it worth it

    I made a hood for my K1 and have the brightness turned up. Still usually have to find shade to see clearly. But it is a good tablet otherwise. I use an iPad for the P4P and like it just as well, but the brightness is better than the K1. As for DB, I completely understand the angst over the...

    Dronebase- is it worth it

    Not at all. I have my 107 and am very proud of it. I provide construction documentation and mapping services. Last job I did paid almost the full price of my P4P in three hours. Point is I might as well fill the DB niche when out goofing around with my aircraft.

    Dronebase- is it worth it

    My area recently had a purge and then the properties came back on the map. The last few sold went for about $25 each, so I think buyers are coughing up more money. Client missions are fairly regular. Regarding the business model: the folks buying the photos will never pay a "real" aerial...

    So fed up with Litchi

    I feel your pain. I had to go back to the P3P for panos using Litchi.

    Flight "Near" Government Infrastructure

    Best thing to do is check a Terminal Area Chart. It will show what is off limits.

    Who's Airspace is it??

    If you are Part 107 and wish to fly in controlled airspace the only way to get permission is through the FAA portal. The airport manager or ATC cannot LEGALLY authorize you to fly. You can apply via the portal with a "number pending" certificate.

    How to get smooth video in a turn?

    What are you watching the footage on? I assume you have transferred the video file from the SD card to the hard drive of a computer. It may be that the computer is not able to play 4K footage smoothly. Use HandBrake to convert the video to 1080 and then play it back. If it is smooth, then you...

    MIA permission? Calle Ocho festival aerials within 5 miles

    You need to approach this issue in a different way. First your $5 FAA registration is just that, a registration. It is not a license. If you are wanting to take pictures at the festival in furtherance of a business or in hopes of providing them to a commercial endeavor, than you will need an...

    Has anyone used Drone Base?

    I didn't claim to be on the same level. Just shared my experience.

    Has anyone used Drone Base?

    This has not been my experience at all. Dronebase has never "asked" me to fly in regulated airspace. The pano missions are mapped from MLS listings. It is up to the pilot to determine the legality of the flight, as it should be. The client missions I have done always begin with Dronebase asking...

    Has anyone used Drone Base?

    Litchi almost exclusively here as well for both birds, but especially the Dronebase missions. The client jobs I do for them require an orbit of the property and it is so easy to set that up in the field on Litchi.

    Looks great. I would deghost the merge next time to get rid of some of the blur in the leaves.

    Wanted P3P battery and nd8 filter

    Aaaahh, got it. I would be leery of buying a used battery, but that is just me. Good luck.
