    Variable contrast of thermal image

    I've been flying pre-dawn when it is very cool, but the live thermal image is showing areas that are hot which are only ~6degrees C. There is a galaxy of hotspots which make it difficult to spot the wetland birds we are looking for. Also, areas of water are 'hot' white. I've attached a photo of...

    Taking manual control of Return-To-Home

    I'm flying the Matrice 4T. When the battery is low and triggers a RTH, the drone returns towards the flight base, which is great. I usually take control to land it, in some cases I need to if we are hand-catching. With other drones, switching to Sports mode and back gives me control, but with...

    M4T Incorrect altitude in photo properties

    Thank you! We will have a deep dive into that and try to get the altitude correction working.

    M4T Incorrect altitude in photo properties

    Thanks jaja6009. I'm about 100km, as the drone flys, from Auckland, New Zealand. I'm not using the RTK. What I don't understand is that the altitude in the flight logs is correct, but this is not used in the photo properties. Is the drone calculating the altitude correctly, then adding 40m for...

    M4T Incorrect altitude in photo properties

    I'm using the M4T to search for rare bird nests in wetlands in New Zealand. We use software that auto-searches the thermal images for heat signatures of a certain parameter, and it maps these. The altitude from the photo properties is used to position the hot spots, but the altitude is...
