    You can run this with Smart Oblique, nadir with altitude optimization (1 flight line of oblique from outside to center) or even with double grid oblique. If you run double grid oblique you do not need the overlap listed since oblique images contain so much more of the scene in each image. I run...

    RTK for Dummies

    http://rtk2go.com/how-to-connect/ On your controller go to the RTK menu, choose the 3 dots top right, then choose the RTK menu. (It either says RTK or has a satellite symbol. Choose the Custom NTRIP choice. Turn on RTK. Follow the directions above. Before you log in, find a mount point close...

    M4T RTK accurate or not ..

    I have changed my opinion on the M4T. I called one of my vendors and he stated that Time Sync is indeed running and the drone should produce low cm accurate data, and that error would come from rolling shutter effect. Your testing is pointing in this direction. I wish I was near you, I would...

    M4T RTK accurate or not ..

    I want you guys to prove this. Here is my persepctive on his results. The limited data he gave showed that there was indeed a very nice alignment. If the source data is absolute accurate data and his data lined up well, it is looking good. The chance that the source data is not accurate and...

    M4T RTK accurate or not ..

    On the Pix4D quality report you are showing, that is the Geolocation section. Read the bottom of the page. "Note that the image geolocation errors do not correspond to the accuracy of the observed 3D points." You need to have check points to assess absolute accuracy. Your overlays show...

    M4T RTK accurate or not ..

    To see your real error for absolute accuracy, you need to add control points used as check points. The above quality report is not able to properly assess absolute accuracy since the only data it has for absolute positioning is from the drone images which were used for processing. Alls it is...

    M4T RTK accurate or not ..

    A couple of questions. When you say 10cm, what is reporting 10 cm? Next, are you receiving corrections from an NTRIP service such as a CORS or paid service? When using Emlid Studio are you uploading the obs, MRK and NAV files from your drone? And if so, what are you using for your base...

    M4T RTK accurate or not ..

    Various places online have this debate. The problem is that not one person has ever produced an orthomap that includes check points to prove their accuracy. There are just claims of cm accuracy with the Matrice 4T, but they don't say whether this is relative accuracy (To scale, does 1 foot in my...

    MSX Setting

    MSX is a FLIR specific function, not available on the Matrice 4 series. I am not following you on Multi-Spectral. You can turn on Super Res where the 640 thermal image is software enhanced to better contrast on screen temperatures though.

    M4T RTK accurate or not ..

    You probably could. In a Baamtech PPK kit for the Phantom 4 Pro v2, you actually used the drone to measure control points. You would place the drone on the target, have an X grid on the screen, line up the centerpoint with the center of the control point and take an image to trigger the PPK time...

    M4T RTK accurate or not ..

    No. Unfortunately the T version does not use Time Sync even when receiving corrections. The mechanical shutter is not the main reason for the lack of accuracy/precision, it's the fact that DJI wants to make you buy both drones if you want to do thermal work and mapping by not having Time Sync on...

    Matrice 4 series Obstacle Sensing Module and Manifold 3

    Here is a video on the Manifold 3 showing a more in depth workflow. He is a brave man with the Matrice 4 flying in so close to trees and wires! Its obstacle avoidance sensors seem to have worked pretty good for that complex environment. I would've liked the added insurance of the Obstacle...

    Matrice 4 series Obstacle Sensing Module and Manifold 3

    A good video showing the L01- Obstacle Sensing module (Radar and LiDAR) as well as the Manifold 3. This video does a decent job showing the Obstacle Sensing module and an excellent job showing the Manifold 3. I wish that these were combined into one unit. DJI always shows the Smart 3D Capture...

    Need low noise propellers for m4t?

    There are low noise propellers. I have used them, and the sound they make is lower and of a different pitch. They will slightly decrease performance.

    RTK issue warning

    By RTK error, do you mean when you went into the RTK settings you had a Network error? While I had this problem last year upon release, I have not had it recently except one time. The last time was due to my RTK/NTRIP provider's base station being down for a month. Maybe try to use a different...
