"I just checked and, unfortunately, I do not have the solid models any more... Pretty perplexed as to where they went.

What I did was measure the hole spacing and depth of the Tarot plate, and emulate those with a 3-D model. I then designed a second…"

"If you want to try it, shoot me your email and I'll see if I can find the parts in my Dropbox."

"How quickly (seconds) are your pictures being taken? There are two issues I can see.

1. You're in auto iso mode - your camera has a limit to how fast it can refocus and take a picture (~2 seconds)

2. The IR trigger sending signals while your…"

"You're right - it may be something we want to try first. I'll allocate half the cores and try to run two instances.

The most annoying part was the project failing because of RAM limitations, but it looks like they now spill over into HDD space…"

"As David K. said, Pix4D stitches images into an orthomosaic in edit-able tiles, whereas Agisoft actually uses the individual pixels. If you don't need orthomosaics without artifacts, then either is fine.

Agisoft has problems recreating an…"

"Hey Gerard,

I think you misunderstood. We already have a workstation for processing, but my understanding is that Pix4D can only run one instance per processor for some steps, even .... We currently are using an i7-4790k with 64 GB RAM and I'm…"

"David,

We used Agisoft for quite some time, but we found that Pix4D works better for us, despite some of it's downsides. The way they stitch together the mosaic is crucial for some of our customers."

"Hey Gerard,
Thanks for your response!

While classification looks useful, our end goal is to produce something like this... So actually creating the survey drawing is the goal. While some people do it by hand, it is incredibly time consuming. One of…"

"In a similar vein to this thread, are there any companies that do multirotor flight controllers aside from Microcopter? I've had no end of issues with the Pixhawk and 3DR compass/GPS, and need something that I know isn't going to stop functioning at…"

"Update: user error. Because flight mode 6 is set to manual, when I thought I was switching to auto, it was actually passing auto and switching to manual."

"I think we are agreeing, and it is just your English/phrasing that is confusing the matter.

The MTOW suggested by the manufacturer already has a built in factor of safety (if they do it right)."
