Today’s question is about selecting a drone via which you can achieve cinematic excellence as well as mapping accuracy. Can you opt for the Mavic 2 Pro with its 1 inch Hasselblad sensor? Or, should you rather wait for the soon-to-be-launched Phantom 5?

Our caller, Adam has recently passed his 107. Adam has extensive experience in the geo-spatial space courtesy his long military experience. He wishes to leverage this experience to do high-end, value added work. Which is the best drone that Adam can buy? Should he go all out and spend thousands of dollars to purchase a high end drone? Or, will the trusty Phantom do the job?

We discuss selection criteria for purchasing the right drone. You will also learn the importance of having structured systems and processes for churning out quality deliverables – again and again. Thanks for the question, Adam, Fly Safe!
