Your flying over my head with the jargon (pun intended) so I went me, a googlin. I kind of understand. Very facinating. found this as a web image. I produce these kind of images with my CT scanner. But with my equipment I scan a .5mm scan thickness through the structure of interest and recon an...

you say "3D" but in what way? What is GIS mapping? Something to do with geological surveying?

A lot of food for thought. Seems like every time someone chimes in, a vale is pulled away and another facet of the business is revealed that I have not considered. BTW how long has everyone (Jes, Chris, Gary, et al) been in the business of aerial photogaphy/video. And what is your specialty.

Thanks everyone. This is a great forum.

Thank you Jes I have a lot of work cut out for me. To be perfectly honest, I'm a guy in my early 50's, so I'm starting late. In my youth I played around with photography, but being in college I couldn't continue to pay for all the rolls of film and development! I put common photography away and...

Right now I feel like I should send you a check for consulting services! I'm starting to go all fuzzy and misty just thinking about it. (tears of joy cascading down my cheeks as I pull out my checkbook, or maybe i should say cheekbook) :-) Seriously though, you are a great asset. Thanks again...

Here is a question. In buying this Nano Qx, being this is the very first multirotor, should I just by the RTF and use that controller, or buy BNF and begin training on sophisticated (compared to the cheapy that comes with the Nano RTF) controller like spektrum.

Never mind Chris I found it. thanks

Interesting article on the future of drones, in many areas. Hope you Likey...:tennis: http://mags.shephard.co.uk/uvonline/2013/uvfebmar13/#/34/

Thanks Ben. I will keep it in mind and thanks for the heads up on Hobbyking. I have been to their web sight and wasn't impressed. Flygirl had referenced a place earlier ( I think it was Horizon hobbies). I have been going to Hobby Zone. Very helpful and friendly when I call.

Thanks Chris for this post and the links. The cost break down will be very helpful when building my business plan. Plus it gives me a lot of insight as to the pull through cost in the beginning. Thanks again for helping me get down the road with this. When it comes to the technical aspect if it...

Hey Chis, I think you were the one that responded to my question about eventually going commercial with the multirotors? I started to read the link you had posted and I didt finish but when I went back I couldn't find your link again. Could you post it here?

Welcome, just started myself and I have learned a lot so far! Dig in.

Do you have a multimeter that you can maybe see if the charger is putting out? if it is probably a short in the battery. Best wishes.

So it can charge multiple lipo at one time? If so, dont leave in suspence..can you give me the brand name and model of the charger your using? Thanks Ben

Congrats!!...have fun with it. Keep us posted on how it goes. I think I am going to order my nano today with about 6-10 batteries and 3-6 chargers. And I think I will go with spektrum and get dx8 or 9. I cant wait.

I know my springer spaniel would do just that...SPRING and he would be crunching down on it by the time his paws hit the ground. Maybe if the nano was in the color red....that big bad wolf wouldnt be afraid.

Hi Andy and Jumpy07, I am new to this all but would eventually like to use drones for commercial use. One of them was in realestate. Can I please ask a few questions about your experience and business? I live in US in the midwest. BTW Jumpy07, Very cool bird and setup. -Terry

Thanks Flygirl, you really help. -Terry

Hi Bensid54, I read that people cross over from spektrum to Futaba and rarely the otherway. Kind of like people cross over from PC to APPLE and rarely the other way or, in the case of controllers, return to spektrum. I know it is a long haul and very expensive, but I would like to eventually...
