Useful tool or.....
No it'a not me! I just found it on RCG.
"We finally flew our first thermal camera flight yesterday afternoon. About 10 seconds after launch my co pilot looked at the screen and said something like, "We now have our very own predator drone""

The FLIR has come down in price a lot since then, since the new photon has come out
2 thumbs up..., great setup!
Just curious, where did you set your CG on your Skywalker?
Thanks
This project makes you think about "pork" in a whole new light, doesn't it?
Mhh.. I think I have not such a large number of pigs that this would become cost-effective :)
About US$ 4500.
Has anyone knowledge about the price of a FLIR Tau320 ?
The daylight aerial damage survey flights alone make the project a success (gives shooters a good idea where piggy traffic comes from, and where to set up). The addition of the FLIR & night flying is the icing on the cake!
Thanks for linking to this, Hooks!
@Yves by the second youtube video title I would guess they are using a FLIR Tau320:

@Yves in the article they say it is a Flir Tau 340, I think that with a bit of tweaking they could get much better quality from the camera. The problem is that it has a fixed focus and the "thermal gains" (level and span) could be adjusted.
Hi, What is IR camera do you use? or is it a transformation of a black and white?
