Well, I am wanting to train for licensing for drones... I don't care where or what position I will get. (not the military ones)
I know the future will be full of them one way or the other, either automated or manned keyboard/joysticks.
And it is a job anyone can do with dedication and a lot of flight hours/practice.
I figure around here it will be fire control (locate hot spots), realty ads for large plots (the rich folks), commercials for businesses, news stories, search and rescue, and possibly surveying those places where wheeled vehicles cannot reach. (yeah businesses buy swamp areas).
So I have ordered the newest of the new DJI drones... the Mavic Pro...
This thing can fly up to 4 miles away..... I won't be testing that, but will be testing its ability to navigate tight places (it has sensors like the new cars for distances to near objects)
Oh... the thing that got me interested was a buddy used to inspect radio towers.... guess what they will be using in the future?
We will not all be healthy enough to "tote that bale" in the near future...so I am figuring at least I could still be somewhat employed
I'll post again once I have recieved it and possibly a few videos .... once I have mastered it... oh I have flown a few small ones that did not have the tech this one does.... and crashed a few too... but I'd rather practice a few times with this one before attempting anything far out
