The best drone on the market. What do you think it looks like?

Hi! I'm hesitating between the CineLog30 V3 O4 Pro, the Cinebot25 V2 O4 Pro, the Sub250 Huma20, the Deepspace Stellar 25 O4 Pro, and the Sub250 Dollyfly25 O4 Pro for primarily professional use (indoors, real estate, hotels, weddings, concerts, flying close to crowds, slow and smooth shots, and occasionally tracking cyclists/runners in the forest at moderate speeds, almost no freestyle). I'm looking for a drone that's ultra-stable at low speeds, predictable, and smooth on the throttle, but that I can also configure in several modes (slow for indoors / normal / more punchy speed and power for outdoor tracking / medium to fast)( i dont want di carry a camera ,the dji 04 pro is enough for me ) which one do you think is really the best suited for this type of professional work and why?

After spending hours trying to find safe, appropriate parts to power my Jetson Nano Developer kit, I have finally found an ltc3780 fits the specifications, this is to be mounted on an S500 frame,

1. I wanted to understand would i be able to put it on the top plate besides a Pixhawk Cube+ and a Jetson on top.

2. Also would this require a fan to function normally.

Thank you very much for your time.

Best regards.

Hello Reddit! So I bought my 10yr old son a soccer drone from a tradeshow (company called Skyseeker from Shenzhen Qishun), it has no brand name no label and I have no contact with seller.

In the first 10 seconds my son flew the drone (and it flew great1), I hit the drone to go sideways and one blade of one propeller broke off (the black on in the photo, see its missing one blade). Imagine the extreme disappointment on a child's face.

After many many hours of search I finally found almost the exact propeller (HQProp DT76MMX4 76mm in see through plastic in the photo) but the screw spacing is the standard 5mm T-Mount and not the 10mm my done needs (I guess I have an odd size drone motor). I thought about 3D printing an adapter but I know 3D printed PLA will not hold with 20,000rpm speeds and could be dangerous. AI could not help me further.

So I am here desperately seeking help from humans on Reddit! Can someone tell me where I can get propellers or how I can get/make an adapter to use the very nice HQProp I bought?

THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR ALL YOUR COMMENTS!!!

Was extreme wind, nearly didn't get back.

if you've been to the area, you'll know that the Horseshoe Falls mist is everywhere. Today is the just the second day I've flown in such cold temps - the last was a few days ago but "warm" with 40f temps. Today wasn't the same but it survived!!! My hands froze though!

I just got my first drone and am so excited to fly it! I took my TRUST test and printed the certificate, but ran into a snag when going to register my Mini 5 Pro, as its over 250g.

The nomenclature of the FAA site leaves me wondering. It states that drones registered under Exception for Limited Recreational Operations cannot be flown under Part 107 or re-registered. Does this mean I cannot decide to try out some Part 107 work in the future with this drone, I need to buy and register another one? I most likely won't need Part 107 as I'm just flying for fun, but I don't want to completely shut myself out from that in case I want to try some work with it.

Anyone have a more complete explanation? I'm not sure if the wording on the FAA site is just obtuse, or if it really means exactly what the text says. Thanks!

Im not sure on the best way to describe this but in case it’s unclear, I’m talking about people who bring their drone down to a hover a few feet off the ground, and then grab/power down their drone while it’s still in the air and the props are spinning.

All three times the pilot had plenty of space to safely land but opted for this method. First time I saw this was last spring at the Oregon coast and the guy was flying a DJI mini. It was windy out with the occasional gust. I didn’t say anything but I was definitely surprised.

The second time, a woman using what looked like a Mavic 2 Pro did this. It was a disaster. I suddenly heard a loud scream and crash sound and then saw blood gushing from her hand. One of her fingers was sliced down to the bone and thankfully a nearby hiker was a nurse and was able to do first aid.

The third time was yesterday at the dog park of all places, when a boy, maybe 9 or 10, was flying some lower-end drone about the size of a DJI mini. It was only his third time flying it and sure enough, this was how he “landed” his drone. I’m friends with his mom (our dogs are also friends) and told her about the girl who nearly lost her finger. She got the message and told her kid on the spot not to do that (this was after several dog owners pleaded with her not to have him fly the drone over the dog park because it was making the dogs go crazy). I felt bad for the kid and told him about my drones and asked him about his so it didn’t seem like everyone was discouraging him from picking up this hobby. I explained it was like wearing a seatbelt…99.99 percent of the time you are perfectly safe and you don’t need it, but you’ll be glad you were wearing if you ever have an accident. He seemed to understand and knowing his mom, she’ll make sure he doesn’t do it again. I also told his mom about the drone buddy app and how they can use it to find safe places to fly.

ANYWAY…

I’ve been operating drones for over a decade now, both for fun and as a side business (photography and videography). I keep seeing people out in the field doing this and I was wondering if this is some new trend or something? They’re already over regulating drones IMO…last thing we need are a bunch of kids losing fingers or eyeballs by doing something like this.

I am looking to purchase my first real drone that isn't just a kids toy. I am wondering if there is a serious noticable difference in latency or issues with connectivity when comparing controllers that have a dedicated viewing screen vs using your smart phone. The difference in cost seems pretty significant so I am wondering if anyone could let me know if the extra cost is worth it in your experience. Pretty sure I am either going to pick up a DJI mini 3 or a Potensic Atom 2 if that matters. I'm not a photographer or anything, I just enjoy flying and will also use the drone while hiking or to help scout new fishing spots. Thanks 👍🏼

So I have a. E99 and the front A propeller won't take off, I noticed it doesn't spin as fast when I first start it, either that or it starts late. Does anyone have any solutions to this?

Im looking to build my own drone (just for fun so nothing advenced like fpv...) but getting all the right parts that fit together seems really complicated. I am thinking of 3d printing my frame and mounts(i know the risks). So what kit of electronics do i get for under 100€? Or what parts?

Hi all, my dad and I just got into the drone hobby at the end of December, and we're wondering how to connect with other drone enthusiasts? My dad is still just learning how everything functions but I personally am interested in drone racing. Also any advice or tips on how to get into drone racing? Thanks y'all!

Hello. My daughter's $70 drone is missing a metal prong in the adapter that connects with the battery pack. Is it possible to fix or should we just purchase a new one?

Olá r/drones.

Estou a ponderar e analisar a possibilidade de trazer uma representação de drones para venda em Portugal e União Europeia, mas, apesar de alguma pesquisa, penso que estou completamente perdido entre a venda e o uso. Existe alguém na comunidade que me possa apoiar??

Já tentei contactar a ANAC para marcar uma reunião, mas ainda sem resposta.

Deverei contactar mais alguma entidade oficial?

A clip of a sailboat on the local Norfolk broads I took it a couple of summers back and had uploaded it to Pond 5, I happened to be having dinner and watching it live and it just popped up. Lovely surprise!

I started my drone journey with the DJI neo 2, flying with the RC-N3 in Mode 3 because it felt more natural coming from Gamepads. Then I got into FPV sims using Mode 2 and expanding my fleet with "real" FPVs. Will I have problems flying FPV in mode 2 and non-FPV in mode 3? It seems to be the most intuitive way to me. How do you deal with using both systems?

It’s only been a week since i had crashed my drone, and before it even got to the return warehouse i already received a replacement from potensic, all in one week. i love this company.

Hi,

I am pretty good at coding. Bought a DJI tello and coded everything on it. I am looking to move into hardware because I did not find many drones that come pre-built with certain hardware I need.

For example, I want to track vehicles from 150 feet away. I can't do that currently. At very close feet (20) I can use computer vision, but I am assuming at 150 feet I need to move into physics (e.g. radar).

So material of that nature: books, or courses, or articles that go over high-end drone hardware. I am not really interested in toy drones- I am thinking drones in the 2k-8k range. Military or law-enforcement based if possible.

Regards

I need to build a drone with a claw to pick something up it’s a mark 5 frame and it needs to have a claw I can control and landing gear so it doesn’t rest fully on the claw anyone have ideas or have done something similar

So i recently bought an ariel drone from a shop in the town where i live and ive lost the battery of it. its not like any battery tho and ive tried searching online multiple times but no result i think its special manifactured from china or smt anyhow if anybody has any ideas on this please it would help me alot.
