Consumer Drones Are Nuisances, Not Profits

January 25, 2017 by craigi

At CES, a whole new flock of fly-high, fly-fast, fly-bad drones were introduced and now the category is suddenly destined to be the next monstrous consumer category. Some were so small they fit in the palm of your hand. In fact, I think I stepped on one in the show’s crowded aisles … but it might […]

ArduPilot Acknowledgement & Integration

November 6, 2016 by craigi

A dirty little secret in the drone industry: many (non-DJI) drone companies are using ArduPilot as the brain in their aircrafts, and they’re not always holding up their end on the bargain. ArduPilot is a GPLv3 open-source project which allows it to be used on commercial products for free. Companies that use ArduPilot are required […]

Drone Jobs: Reality

October 4, 2016 by craigi

If you’re reading Drone Coalition you’re probably excited about the future of the drone industry, and you’re curious where career opportunities exist across the industry.

Current Model Aircraft Operations in US

September 17, 2016 by craigi

Update 9/2016 – Peter Sachs – Drone Law Journal: If you are confused about how to legally operate a model aircraft, it’s not your fault, but the FAA’s fault. The new FAR Part 101 is confusing, and has already resulted in controversy.

First Look: Eclipse Rover Line of Pro Cine Rovers

August 25, 2016 by Jeff Foster

After experimenting with my own kit build of the “Osmo Rover v1.0” here on Drone Coalition, I took it to NAB this year and got a chance to have a great discussion with Joe at Eclipse Rover about the design hurdles in perfecting UGVs (Unmanned Ground Vehicles) for cine/video use. So we’ve agreed to run […]

How to make a 3D map using a DJI Phantom and Skycatch software

August 15, 2016 by craigi

One of the most common misconceptions I’ve heard in the drone world regarding DJI’s products: they are just meant for taking aerial photos. While that’s true, it’s also true that a simple $500 drone can create images used for commercial purposes that can save businesses thousands of dollars. One of the most impressive use cases to me? […]

August 5, 2016 by craigi

This summer you may have noticed a new arrangement being pitched by PrecisionHawk wherein you can inquire about becoming a dealer of “The Smarter Farming Package by PrecisionHawk and DJI.” PrecisionHawk is relatively well funded to the tune of $30M according to CrunchBase. As such you would think they have their sh*t together in terms […]
