Thanks Ralph. Just getting started. Got a big mountain to climb, figuratively speaking.

 

[Ralph]

I have a m30t for about 9 months, love it.
Are you using yours for recreation or commerical?

[InspectorTom]

I've been flying drones for a few years now, but literally just bought the M30T drone, passed the Part 107, and formed my business. It will be used for commercial inspection.

 

[Ralph]

Good deal, I also have Part 107, I have been flying for around 10 or so years,
my inventory of drones include.

Phantom 4 Pro V2.0
Mavic 2 Zoom
Matrice M30T
Mini 4 Pro (just bought have not received it yet)

Nice! I am considering the Mini 4 Pro to replace my old Mini. I'm gonna assume you're using your M30T for commercial purposes (but I could be wrong). If so, what type of services are you offering? If not, disregard. Just trying to get an idea of what other pilots are using the drone for.

 

[Ralph]

Right now, I am not doing any commerical services, I live a real rural area, mountains and such and there is not much commeriacal to do.
I may down the road do some commerical, don't really now.

A neighbor of mine that has some bison, some of them go out of his farm and I helped him with finding some of them with the thermal.

Go to youtube and put in my name

Let me knw what you think

Cool video's! I can see how powerful the thermal would be when spotting animals. I haven't yet put together a YouTube channel but plan to for my business. Well, that and the whole Facebook and Instagram thing. I took my M30T out for its first flight a month or so ago and took some video/pictures but nothing to write home about. My intentions with this drone are to get my level 1 and 2 ASNT thermography certifications, and then find work in solar farm/array, electrical transmission towers, wind turbine, radio tower, commercial roof, and commercial building envelope inspection. There is a metric ton of work to be had here in the Maryland/Virginia part of the country. I have a buddy to is an engineer who would be interested in getting involved with this whole thing. This is, for now, a side gig though. My full time job comes first.
