  • honestly quality work and production here. for sure underrated. actually came here from one of your other videos on how to do a job site. now learning how you process all this data! 👍
  • @BGIS2000

    Good work Jon. Great contribution 👍
  • @rbdrones6198
    Thanks John, I really would like to see it First hand....Great Job...
  • great video as always. any chance you'd ever post a similar video but with other apps that dont charge the crazy subscription price that Drone Deploy does? Some small businesses arent at DD money yet. Maps Made Easy comes to mind first as one ive used that was super affordable early on.
  • I have a Question Jon that how can we make a single map if we fly drone multiple times within different dates and time? I request you to make a video for it and tag me back on your reply. Thsnkyou 😊
  • @user-xv8vu4xn7r
    So apparently Dji mini 4 Pro isn’t compatible with Droneflight. I’m absolute gutted so what else can I use?
  • How do you program the drone to fly the pattern autonomously? Is it all done thru the DJI fly app? I'm really new to drone flying so pardon the really basic question.
