Read more…Agricultural drones have gone from being questioned by the market to being actively promoted by the government, from tens of thousands to thousands of dollars. Behind this is the rise of technology in the entire industry. However, the degree of promotion of agricultural drones varies greatly in different regions. What do you think of the application of agricultural drones in your country?https://youtu.be/TDTW9TsvjZw EFT agricultrul drone solution
Read more…I'm leading a project to develop a completely open source system for deploying artificial intelligence and computer vision on a drone. We are trying to make the system as general purpose as possible, but one application would be supporting precision agricultural. The real-time, in-flight processing aspects of the payload are probably less interesting for precision AG, but the data collection and curation capabilities might be. We are getting started with a few specific missions, we are…

Oops, sorry I meant a Spade, which is a scaled up Z3...to a coincidentally 70" wingspan.

Yikes that's quite the mark up or quite the great promotional offer.
It's more of a scaled up Z3.
Is that a ritewing zephyr? I swear that is the exact design. I hope Chris at Ritewing is involved in that company, he designed an incredible airframe, those bays and choro design are his signature, i'd recognize it anywhere!

Yes, but don't bother with more than 3. Adding more questionable points isn't going to help.
Do you just select a point in the raycloud and add the GPS data (7 times), and then re optimise?
