The capture of data and its transmission to other nationalities.

This looks great! is it specific to the UK though?

Hi guys, Any help would be much appreciated. Just to give you some info, we are looking for a UAV, whether it is a fixed wing or a prop, to use for aerial recon and/or remote sensing. We're not talking 100's or square miles, but maybe a couple at a time. I personally own a DJI Phantom, so I am...

Dear all, You guys have been really helpful in the past, and I was hoping you guys might know what direction to head in. So I got my phantom 3 into a crash the other week and my gimbal still responds to the controller and reacts normally (moves up and down). However, there is absolutely no...

~25 mph, just checked the logs. If it's broken do you think you can salvage the lost money on it?

is it worth spending that money on getting someone to come though you think or no?

It's about 90 feet high. A lot of weight to hold up I think?

So I got my phantom 3 standard stuck in a tree. It's too high to retrieve with conventional methods...If you can think of a way I've probably tried it :( I was gonna ask, do you think it's worth $150 on a tree surgeon to come climb the tree to retrieve it? It's been up in the tree for 8 days...

I just posted to a facebook group....I was thinking about maybe buying like syma drone for cheap and flying it over the tree with fishing wire?

too close to some train tracks...I was thinking about it but the fines and damages I could cause (not on my land) would probably put me in jail haha but I've thought about it.

thats a pretty good idea! you think it'll hold together up to 100 feet up??

I've tried it and it is way too high unfortunately...

Im just weighing my options. Either spend more and more money trying to retrieve it or use that money towards a new drone (it's a phantom 3 standard btw). I've spent around $50 already on materials, and that would be $300 more. So if I retrieve it and its broken do you think it would cost less...

Thanks, I've been absolutely devastated recently. You really lucked out! To makes things worse, I have report due today and all I wanted to do is spend my whole week out there trying :( Just spoke with a tree guy, he said earliest time is next week and it would cost about 250 pounds or nearly...

So the tree is in the middle of a boggy field with absolutely no road access. I was talking with my dad and we assumed the cost of getting them out there would outweigh the cost of the drone. I'm gonna make some phone calls now though
