How to Successfully Implement a Public Safety Fire Fighting Drone Program - Ask Drone U with FDNY

[@PowderMill]

Great video… The M30 seems ideal for the fire service. HDMI video retransmission to command is great! Go FDNY!

[@RunfangChe]

We are also an enterprise to develop and product fire fighting drones. Fire extinguishing with uav is more and more an important topic in our life.

I am member of a fire department just outside of NYC. What great information on this video. Thanks.

[@Gorganahfikark]

Brilliant interview. Thank you Paul and the good folks of the FDNY for keeping us appraised of the use of drones in Public safety and fire fighting. Some very valuable info

[@DroneU]

Thanks for watching Andre!!! -PAA

[@tobbis89]

Nice episode!! Informative !

[@rj934]

I work with our local PD in our drone unit. Thank you for this video. I have sent the link for this video to the command structure of our unit.

[@quentintyler]

This was very educational!

[@matthazlett2945]

Am I right to say fire dept still must maintain. VLOS? I ask because there is a local dept that is using a remote Pilot who is not with the department and he is not keeping VLOS at all, responding to traffic accidents, etc.

[@souocara38able]

Everybody has to follow the rules unless they have a waiver from a rule. I was disappointed that they didn't go into any of that kind of stuff in this interview...

[@fredcarlson8829]

We must maintain VLOS we do use 1 or more VO's as per our COA.

[@beewear122]

Can you guys put a list of EVERYTHING (down to how many batteries etc) needed for a fire dept drone program and put it on your website. To present to administration. Platinum program, Gold program, and Silver program. Maybe you guess have this already. Where can I find it?

[@souocara38able]

You know it's a special kind of a day when drone U responds in the comments! LOL

[@giovanidronesaerocinematog834]

Amazing! Good to know that if these guys are using the Dual, this is the one that I am going to buy to help firefighters in my city(Goiânia)

[@xavier_arthur]

FDNY doesn't use any DJI software. All in-house software from their IT internal team.

[@DroneU]

Isn't that awesome, who needs 3rd party apps? In addition, now who is in control of the data? -PAA

[@souocara38able]

Well that's a juicy and massively significant little detail they left out of the interview!

[@andrewap77]

Nice.

[@souocara38able]

That was very interesting but I was disappointed that they didn't cover anything about waivers for many rules. I mean there are so many rules that would interfere with what they do, where they do it and the process by which they deal with that would be very interesting. I found it kind of shocking to read in the comments that they use proprietary software and not DJI software. How could that have been skipped over during the interview? Seems like a lot was missing...

[@charlesdalton8961]

Continued success and safe tours always.🇺🇸 I would enjoy an invitation to visit the unit as a retired Firefighter FDNY . Charles TL -77
