Glad you found it useful!

You can select the line, hold down on the screen and a menu will pop up. From there you can stake the line.

If you get the settings right the first time you can usually just set the EV value at each battery change and be good to go. If your images are blurry you may have to slow of a shutter speed or flying too fast.

We use Pix4D products and a variety of CAD software packages, depending on the deliverables required.

Two ways, most weather apps will give you a general idea of conditions you can expect through the day. Then adjust to conditions where you are flying. There are several drone specific apps, too. Just search for them and pick the one you like.

Thanks, we'll see if we can make that happen.

Hi @aidanwaldron3501 - We check into control to make for certain our GPS system was/is correctly calibrated to the site. That way, our topo will be compatible with any data collected before or after your current days' work.

Thank you, glad it was helpful.

It will depend on where you live. You might need to subscribe to a NTRIP provider, or you state DOT may offer a free service.

It adjusts your finish grading surface up or down to compensate for the thickness of rock, pavement or topsoil.

You are right, those orthos can get distorted without ground control.

You will have to reach out to your CORS network provider to make an account and connect to their network. It's the same process a surveyor would use to connect a network rover. Depending on your location you may have to pay a subscription fee.

Glad it was helpful and thanks for letting us know.

Firmware update combined them. Tap the "Area Route" option, draw your shape, select your drone, then you will have the option for Ortho collection which is what he did in the video, or Oblique Collection. Further down will be the option for Smart Oblique as well.

It does. For topographic mapping you should keep it set at -90 degrees (straight down).

Thats a drag. I'd suggest starting simple and checking any fuses tied to the system. Troubleshoot your way up from there.

Hi @drumatruka - I'd suggest dropping an email to the CORS support folks at the state. The mountpoint you use can change the base selected and satellites used among other things. You should be able to choose a mountpoint that either picks the nearest base or VRS and uses all satellites available in the MA system. Take the system outside for all validation tests. Indoor tests are never reliable.

thanks, Thats what I did and now I am connected. Thank You @@QuantumLandDesign

Seen that before. Did a re-start fix the problem?

Hi @paulbaker7489 - You can use the terrain follow functionality or load your own surface DSM. Be careful with DSM's from online sources. If you are flying an area the frequently changes, like mine, it may not be accurate. As always, keep line of site to closely monitor the drone as you fly.

@@QuantumLandDesign still struggling to find the Terrain Follow function. Will see if DSMs exist if rural Colombia!

@@paulbaker7489 , sorry I forgot they changed it to AGL (above ground level) in the last update. It's under the ASL/ALT menu section when planning a mission. Again, keep close eyes on the drone when using this function!

Hi @petertips2686 - I am not sure I understand your question. If you use x,y,z for all five (or more) control points you should be good to go. To tie verticals down as tight as possible you can request the surveyor run a level loop to tighten them up. At the least, we like to see them use a robot to set your control. The length of time you spend shooting in each point matters, too. Recommendations vary by manufacturer, but always spend at least 30 seconds on each CP. We usually occupy the point for two minutes to better average out the error. If you have a "bad" control point your GPS system should show you excessive error on that point (but you will need at least 4 shot in before it will display vertical error). Keep in mind that some variance and tolerance stack up is inherent in GPS.

4:3 is the only option on the M3E.

New to automated mapping. I’ve been doing telecom site audits for the past 3 years. I recently have done some automated mapping missions and I am dealing with the client sending jobs back due to blurry photos. My camera settings are set to auto. Mechanical shutter is toggled on as well. Is it the gospel to have camera settings on S mode when mapping vs auto?That way I know going forward and can let other pilots know as well.

Kyle explains it here - ua-cam.com/video/gBsMq9YxxVI/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared&t=27

If it did not come around after a re-start you might need to send it in to DJI for repair.

Hi @gsquared_08 We can't speak specifically to the TN network but I'd suggest you start here -www.tn.gov/tdot/roadway-design/survey-standards/gnss-reference-network.html There is an email and phone # where you should be able to get the answers to your location specific questions. The TN CORS network should broadcast the information you need to connect any RTK capable DJI drone.

We have not tried Flighthub 2. Often, we'll let new apps mature for about 6 months before we really dig in.

Hi - drop me an email at sales@avqld.com. We'll get right back with current pricing.

Thanks, glad you are getting some value from it.

I'll see if we can do a more detailed video next time we get ahold of a controller. In the meantime, it's often best to export all points, then delete what you don't need in excel. That way you don't leave the field short any information.

Figured the audience would relate!

It's similar. Komatsu changed a few things up to add their features. The core functionality and menus are very similar to the layout Topcon has maintained for years.

First, I would triple check that you have the NTRIP network information entered correctly and steady internet connection.

Hi Touraj - We'll add that one to the list. Keep an eye out.

@@QuantumLandDesign thanks 🙏

For topographic flights it's not necessary so long as you have sufficient side/front overlap. If you are trying to capture very steep terrain or building facades, you may want to consider a grid flight. We've experimented with grid flights for topos and do not see an improvement in most use cases.

Thanks for watching, glad we could get you started. Keep an eye out. We will continue to add more videos as time permits.
