The only thing I would add is: Remote ID. If the drone transmits RID or needs a larger battery (ie. Mini series) Category Drones. Is the drone a Category drone as is, is there a PRS that makes it a Category drone or can the drone meet a Category by being under the weight limit if it has covered...

What software are you using? What is your GSD? What are you actually inspecting? To truly inspect small details, you need mm GSD and should be using Local 3D modeling. I prefer to use Agisoft Cloud Inspection where you click on the model to then get the images for that point. You can see much...

New firmware is available. A highlight is panoramas using the medium telephoto lense for panoramas. This should result in some really detailed panos.

Very nice looking map. Here is a question that pertains to this discussion. Have you mapped this area several times? Without using GCPs to correct any shift, do the datasets line up well? That will give you a clue to precision.

What else do you need information on? Here is an updated list now with RMSE from Pix4Dmapper. As you can see it closely matches Agisoft results. I am still processing so the full final results won't be processed and typed up for a bit. The M4T will get more chances. I still need to test it...

Hello, Thank you for that information. I do not pretend to know the particulars on DJI's implementation of Time Sync, but this is very good information and helps for others to understand that the drone having RTK is much more complicated than what is on the surface. As far as purchasing a...

I do not have any special settings for Agisoft Pro. Align Photos: Default, Accuracy High, Key Point Limit 40,000, Tie Point Limit 4,000 After Alignment I import and mark the control points. Then assign each control point as a GCP or Check Point. Update Transform, then run Optimization. For...

Here is a link to the finished orthos. You can turn on and off layers to see the horizontal distance from the center of the check point. I tried some other Agisoft processing changes to attempt a lower RMSE, and none altered the outcome by any meaningful amount. I will now process in...

The whole test was difficult. I tried 3 times to start it, but being 0.5 miles from the ocean had sea fog drifting in and out. While running the test a cold front was moving in and I literally had patches of fog occasionally blowing over my head. A child at one point grabbed a control point and...

For our European friends, this chart is in centimeters.

The results are in. I used Agisoft Metashape Pro. I also ran the Matrice 4T in Pix4Dmapper and got very similar results for the nadir mission with Altitude Optimization and no GCPs. My RTK base is also 19 km away, so the M4T will need a test with a base on site, since the 19km is 19 ppm or...

I did the above with both a 4T and 4E recently. Does it fly the whole entire perimeter or does it fly from the outside of the perimeter to the center of the map? If so, it is flying an Altitude Optimization route of 1 line of oblique images from the outside to the center.

I just did this. I created a simple polygon in Google Earth. I right clicked on the polygon and Save Place as and chose KML as the file type. I placed the KML on an SD card. On the RC Plus 2 in Flight Routes I pressed +. Then choose the KML option. I then designed a Area Route/Mapping mission...

The image quality on this drone while good for its intended purpose of inspection and mapping, will not be on par with something like a Mavic 4 Pro and the camera has limited options compared to the Mavic 4 Pro. You cannot change the aspect ratio. You cannot change to DNG. To delete the drawn...

Others have posted about this. I will see if I can change to the larger 48MP images, but I don't think it is possible. I do know that the Mavic 2 Enterprise Advanced does use the larger image size for mapping. But the image sizes slow down the processing by a large factor and in previous tests...
