I have been trying to tell people this for the longest time! They think I'm crazy for risking my drone when I'm flying low in between trees and challenge myself daily doing pointless shoots. But it's all about learning your skills and perfecting your skills so you can get those harder jobs by being more daring and riskier because you are confident and be able to get those harder jobs that others will turn down.. This video is so good that I'm watching it for the second time in a row. Most people think you have to have the best equipment, the best. Everything in order to make money doing something. But yet, as long as you're able to utilize your equipment to the best of your ability and always looking to learn to be surprised. However, you can go

I just got the new Potensic ATOM and it's the best budget professional lvl drone available hands down. I've been flying every chance I get since I got my first decent drone the Holy Stone HS360S, this ATOM has completely increased my confidence in low flying. You really need a precise strong drone for low close flight from my limited experience. The Holy Stone HS360S is their best GPS drone with a new hard wired controller, but it's acceleration and stopping take to long and make tight maneuvers almost impossible, but the ATOM changed the game.

Paul I have to give you a big thank you for the time and effort you put into this to share all of this information. I got my Part 107 last year in Feb. After putting in a lot of practice I contacted real estate agents in the LA area to see if they needed a video created for their properties. But most never replied or they said they already had a videographer. But now, according to you, it's best to steer clear of real estate properties. But glad you mentioned Airbnbs. During my nine month South American journey from September of last year until June of this year I did some video marketing for a couple of Airbnbs, in Colombia, which included some drone footage. Then a more cinematic drone video of two cities in the north of Colombia. Just creating personal projects to experiment and build up my portfolio. I also worked with an architect in Lima, Peru who saw me flying my drone and asked if I could do some work for him which was a coincidence because this is one industry I had written down that I want to work in. Besides that, Airbnbs, resort marketing, solar panels and engineers are some other industries I'm very much interested in working but also construction jobs. Since returning to the States, I've had my attention on construction sites. I really want to get my feet wet in this field. *So if I want to get work, what would you recommend as a way of getting my first job?* I thought about getting the phone numbers of construction firms that are shown on construction sites and giving them a call/sending an email and offering them my services for free so they can see the value in what I am providing them. Then if they like what I offer we can continue to do business at a price. I just want to get out there and start putting my drone and skills to work. Thanks again for all the information you shared!

Hi Kenny I was reading your comment and I want to share with you my way of using drones for construction sites, I'm an architect and in the architectural firm I work in we use drones and 360° cameras to record the process of the construction site, most of the owners cant come everyday to the construction site to check the process of their house, so this helps them to see the process from every angle, so yes you should offer this drone service to construction sites, you should contact them and explain to them that with your drone you can record all of the process, so that the owners can check the construction site without the necessity of going directly to the site, you can record with your drone one day every week or something like that. good luck 💪

It's funny that I'm watching this 4am on a Saturday morning, trying to study for the 107 test, and have KZbin on the back ground. Then my ears went up coz not only you mentioned Fargo ND twice, but also real estate videos. I'm trying to get certified so to legally take drone footage of Fargo to enhance a brand new real estate channel I'm working on. As for real estate drone footage... it'll be nice to have that to set me apart from the competition. However that's just a small embellishment (most house look similar so not that much better-looking from the sky) so not looking to focus on drone business, unless I start making more money on that! BTW very good video and info. Thanks!

Thanks for all the info! I got my first drone (dji mini 4) to compliment my real estate photography business. I was thinking of using it at the odd jobs and take some photos higher if needed. but unfortunately, I haven't been able to practice with it yet. It is winter here and between the rain snow cold and wind, I can maybe feel comfortable 1 day each week to take it out. I'm afraid to test out this drones limits. Any advice on how to learn how far I should test its limits? So far I got a drone app which gives me all the environmental advice as to whether I should fly, although it gives me advice based on my input. I have limited my flying to wind at only 31 km at up to 200km height with less then 25% chance of precipitation.

Make sure your business can showcase your skills, keep having weekly drone adventures in beautiful places to keep capturing epic imagery. Turn that imagery into a story on your site, turn it into a brochure. Make sure your business is listed in as many places as possible (try apple maps, we even forgot that) then enroll with companies offering drone jobs, and don't be afraid to go to networking events with cards and brochures in hand. If you have the motivation, you will get the work.

In 2024 this is not the case. Everyone has a drone now. This is absolutely a scam. You are competing against people with 10 years experience.

Its also high risk in an array of ways. Everyone thinks this is easy. Sure if you are 22 year old trust fund kid in 2024, then fine. Other wise good luck. They are pushing courses.

Neither... You'll need a Mavic 3 enterprise to do mapping. There are waypoints with the Mavic 3 pro, but nothing for mapping. Now if you learn to fly perfectly straight lines with 75/75 overlap and can fly manually, it is technically possible.

Terranis is really crushing it with those jobs. They married the laser range finding sensor to the 12mp wide camera to get much mroe accurate results in ag... I would seriously check them out.

Make sure your business can showcase your skills, keep having weekly drone adventures in beautiful places to keep capturing epic imagery. Turn that imagery into a story on your site, turn it into a brochure. Make sure your business is listed in as many places as possible (try apple maps, we even forgot that) then enroll with companies offering drone jobs, and don't be afraid to go to networking events with cards and brochures in hand. If you have the motivation, you will get the work. You could also create a demo reel, but make it emotional.. talk about why you fly but showcase how you can help others/provide value too.

Operations are applicable to anyone. In canada, if you fly a sub 250gram drone, you have more opportunity in Canada than the us.

You won't actually make money most likely. It's not about the drone. Its about your understanding of photography. composition. If you csnt take good photos you won't make money
@dpjohnjones432
@dpjohnjones432 8 ай бұрын
Huh? Your statement is very vague. On certain jobs it is not only about your eye but also about the deliverable. And for that you will need certain drones. If an agency asks for Pro res 4444 then your drone has to have that capability. And yes one should have a good eye for composition and exposure but there is even more to it than that. I’ve seen people with enormous talent that never make money because they have no hustle and don’t know the business.

@@dpjohnjones432 I think he's saying that the ability to take good photos is a starting point for everything else. If you can't take good, focused, well exposed photos (even when the conditions are challenging) then you can't do anything. The exception would be lidar.
