I've been pondering stepping up my drone hobby into trying to make some income from it. I know there is lots of info around on what it takes to do that, but I'd love to hear from people who are actually doing it (in particular people who have gone from a hobby to a business or side business), or...

Potentially a silly question but cant hurt to ask - I am going to be doing a part time aerial photography business in a few months once I've completed a course and got CAA approval. So until then I want to get a good portfolio of images/videos for the website facebook ready for posting when I...
Recent 107 exam passer here, yaya - does anyone using drones in their photography/videography/production business have a link to a good FAA 107 compliant workflow? One you've developed that you'd be willing share, or perhaps your ideas on how to develop a good one?

What i need is an idea of how many people in the drone community would be willing to pay a membership annually for use of a drone racing track fully lit with led...
The first successful drone delivery in the US has taken place
I saw this a day or two ago, thought it deserved a mention.
Kudos really, for those that didn't hyperlink, it was a small tiny town out east, a first aid kit and some water and another item were delivered.
I've looked through these and other forums, searched online. The closest, up to date, reliable source I have found is knowbeforeyoufly.org. The problem is, the statement regarding commercial use is slightly confusing. I have messaged them with no response so far.
"If you want to use UAS for...
