On 10/10, DJI announced the Zenmuse L2. We believe the new L2 will offer exceptional technical improvements over both the L1 and the current mid-tier sensor market. We’re excited to share what we know about the delivery timeline, and how we view the technical specs.
DJI’s long-anticipated L1 sensor is finally here, and we’ve been doing dozens of test flights and spending hundreds of hours flying and analyzing data to create a real-world, field-tested review of the newest DJI L1 sensor.
DJI states that “The P1 supports 24mm, 35mm, and 50mm lenses with industry-specific DL mounts. Only use lenses engraved with the "DJI Enterprise" logo to produce survey-grade accurate results.” But, there is more to the story.
There are numerous ways to process GNSS data from the DJI M300 RTK and the Phantom 4 RTK. This article will discuss the five most common methods for processing data from DJI RTK drones and weigh their strengths and weaknesses.
Read the article to get answers to these common questions:
Can I use my Trimble, Leica, or Topcon base with the Phantom 4 RTK?
Is it possible to use my NTRIP correction service without a base station?
Will the DJI D-RTK 2 work as a standalone base or rover?
The FAA has released their final rule for drone registration, but most people overlook the impact that this will have on businesses. This article goes into how this new rule will impact businesses who are building drone programs or looking to use UAVs in their operations in the future.
Early this week, the FAA published the recommendations of their task force on drone registration. Though there exist some significant challenges associated with the new set of recommendations, ultimately businesses using drones will not be significantly impacted by these recommendations.
The DoT and FAA have asked for comments on how to register small UAS. Registration could seriously damage the industry, and the hobby. Smart solutions are possible, however. Read our full comment to the DoT and FAA.
In a press conference earlier today, the US Department of Transportation announced its plan to require the registration of drones operating in the National Airspace. Their plan involves forming a task force that will ideally create a set of rules to register drones by mid-December. However, this announcement, like many regulatory attempts before it, adds complexity to the regulatory landscape while answering few of the questions required to create a safe and effective industry.
