Drone operators come in

[CobraVenom01]

Just wondering who else on here flies? What do you guys fly, modded?

I picked up a Mavic Mini for my home inspection business just for inspecting 2 and 3 story + roofs as well as different roofs that shouldn’t be walked on.

I have also gotten in to aerial real estate photography so I just picked up a Mavic 2 pro. Wow this thing is unbelievable. It’s so fun to fly it. Working on my commercial license now.

I've got a 3DR Solo. Just for fun and documenting our house build.

I designed our drive circle by flying my drone, taking a photo, then adding graphics to the file so the builder could preserve as many trees as possible.

I also have a Mavic 2 Pro and a 107. Started an LLC a few years back but haven't done anything with it, just pay $39/year to keep it going thinking one day I might get back in to it. I have worked side jobs for an architectural engineer doing roof inspections with a Phantom 4 but that was a couple of years ago.

Full time I am a Sensor Operator on MQ-9 Reapers so "drones" are pretty much life haha.

Where did you get that controller with the built-in screen?

I have a Parrot Anafi and Autel Evo. I have my part 107 license as well.

I have only done 1 real estate job though, havent focused on commercial work yet. My sister is working on getting her real estate license, so I'll do work for her and use that work to build a portfolio.

I just fly for fun in the meantime.

I have a Mavic Pro2 and love it. It's not perfect but it does the job quite well!

That’s awesome wow, I got the controller from DJI, it’s their smart controller. It runs android OS. 5.5” screen it’s pretty cool.

I started with a 3DR Iris+, then got a Phantom 4 Pro and a Mavic Pro Platinum. I got the MPP so I could throw it in my backpack on bike rides, and used the P4P when I really wanted to take good pictures/video. I stopped using them as much, so I sold the P4P.

I got one for Christmas a few back. Promply crashed it multiple times and gave up. It is out in the shop somewhere.

I really want to get one of the Mavics.

@MG01GT that wrap is sweet!

Ordered it haha the camera on this thing is pretty awesome. I took some aerial shots of a condo I just finished flipping for the listing. It was pretty windy today but this thing had no problem.

I manage and fly Ravens, Pumas, and other drones for my military unit, but I’d really love to get a Magic Pro 2. Just can’t justify spending that much right now.

Marine or Army? I've been helping my boss over here at 29 Palms manage all our small UAS ops.

The camera on the Mavic is pretty good out the box!!! It handles winds and object detection quite well. Took this pic out over my home here in San Diego.

I have a Mavic Air, love it. Haven’t messed around with it since the summer and only taken some basic automotive shots with it. Once it warms up again I’m going to try some other stuff.

Started the 107 operators course today. Hopefully Knock that out this week and take the test shortly after

Here’s some shots from causeway yesterday

107 isnt too hard take a few practices. Have to find the drone school my company paid for online. Might have the videos saved. Got 14 outta 15 though first try. I got one wrong...

Anyway we use Imging. Crazy service uses a Mavic 2, flys its self and gives you back a 3D model and .dwg autocad file. No complaints a few months in and 1000 flights, 2 mishaps but measurements are on point.
