Drone Operators Equipment Guide
We invest in research and development to assess and guide our own operations so we can effectively serve our clients, whether as a flight service provider or drone operations advisor. Consequently, we have invested significant time and money using and testing equipment, multiple configurations, including apps and software as part of building our business. As a service to our fellow drone operators, we thought we would share our insight about drone equipment that we like and recommend. Some of the items may be specific to certain project types, but most are simply useful and recommended.
