About Me:

I’m @droneanalyst and owner of Koptervision.com


Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest

I love making, programming, and piloting small drones. I got into this business because of my passion for photography and videography and find it’s a great fit with my background in model aircraft, electronics, software, and vendor analysis.
