As we watch the weather and see Hurricane Harvey make its way towards you, we will keep all of you in our thoughts and prayers. We hope you and your families are safe and taking all the precautions you can.

Being in Florida we understand hurricanes, the damage they create and the lives they disrupt.

If there is ANYTHING we can do to help, please let us know.

If there are any drone operators that will be assisting with search and rescue, power line failure / restoration or anything else related to public safety or benefitting the repair of storm damage, let us know. We will be happy to try to get you anything you need as quickly and inexpensively as well can.

We are currently assessing our inventory of everything related to the weatherproof M200s (and their weather sealed batteries), Inspires, Phantoms, Mavics, all other batteries, CrystalSky monitors (and extra batteries) - both new and our dealer demos of all those items. We will standby with everything we have to make it available and ready to be put to work.

If you know anybody outside of this forum that would benefit from seeing this message, please pass it along on our behalf.

Wishing everyone the best…

That's awesome. As nice as your offer is to supply your drones for service, hopefully it isn't required for search and rescue purposes after the hurricane.

We hope the same thing.
 
I commend you for this VERY generous offer.

At the same time I want to PLEASE ask that anyone flying in this disaster area (or potential disaster area) work through the local EM/EMS Dept in your county. If you're not part of the program then you could indeed be holding the program back due to safety and liability reasons.

We ALL want to help but please follow the proper channels so that no people, UAS, Manned Aircraft, or responders in the area are endangered or delayed. Lives could very well be at stake here.

The last thing we want is to be the "That Guy/Girl" who hampered efforts or worse caused a full blown "Incident" within an existing Incident.

Don't SELF DISPATCH!!
