    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.

      You really don't want to be too risky because even 1 crash can ruin your drone. It can be subtle too. You don't need to break anything but even a small impact can ruin the compass on the drone
      The other issue is when you get close to objects the drones sometimes will start drifting and behaving weird. They can literally crash themselves even if you have collision prevention
      I'm all for doing cool stuff for practice. Or I was until my drone crashed itself a few times. Now I no longer trust it

    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 RUclips 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!

    So the one Thing Ive learned about the "Tax Write off" I learned this the hard way and lost over 40k thinking that I could write it off. The deal is dont go out buying the best stuff ifbyour just startingbout and practicing thinking you could just write it off. Nope. You actually have to have to use it to bring money in. In other words you need to have a return on your investments such as equipment , education and travel to be able to claim it as a write off. Be ready to start a business who are your client's and how long will it take to start receiving payments. When you have that going then write offs are a go. I thought I could spend all thismoney in preparation to opening a business and be ablecto claim it, yet I had no funds coming in. I had several people tell me different things and didn't investigate it myself, and ended up closing down before I physically got started after spending the time and money thing I could write it off and use that money for operating costs. Learn from my ignorance. People throw that write it off around without telling you you have to have an income of any money from you business endeavor.

    Thank you, Paul, for this excellent informative, down-to-earth, realistic information! I am a newly certified remote pilot, recently retired from 21 years as a teacher, and have created my first website. I fly a DJI Mini 2 SE, which I know is bottom line, but I feel that I can utilize the videography aspect to bring in a little money - which when saved, I can use to upgrade to a much more functional drone. I love flying and am not currently looking to make a lot of money. Just a little here and there which I can reinvest into my business by purchasing a more capable drone. I appreciate the information and tips you have provided here! I'm not an optimist - I am a realist. I know it's going to take plenty of time before I am able to earn a decent income doing this...but thanks to my practice and realistic information provided by you and others, I am confident that I am on the right track for what I want to accomplish.

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.

      He also said so in this video. 6 figures the last 5 years. He also named several gigs he could go out and get at the drop of a hat.
      Honestly, and I ask these all the time, your questions are ones that would benefit you to go out and seek answers to.

      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. The reason its hard to find is no one can sustain the career. The drone companies that hire pay peanuts and costs in expenses, software etc. in the end you are left with peanuts. 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.

      @FishingwithPhillips Год назад

      For now I think there's more creation of jobs and AI currently is more usefull tools to help you do your job much more effectively and efficiently and even automate processes. Don't fear it, learn what's available now and get creative with how it can help solve problems for you and be ahead of the game. Then you won't have to fear AI "taking our jobs" and instead elevate your own capabilities and worth while others freak out for no reason.

    Thanx for another informative video. Question for you, Infrastructure bill and Disaster Drone work. With the Federal and several state bans ...What are your recommendations for Drones to use? I know there are some "BLUE" drones out there, but not at affordable rates and inferior quality...what are we to do?

    • @DroneU

      Great question... the Mavic 3 alternative would be the Parrot Anafi Ai for small form factor and cheaper. The real alternative is unfortunately much more expensive. We would pick the Freefly Astro.

      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.

    How the hell are you doing those indoor fly through?
    The only times I've flown indoors, my drone crashed itself and also was totally unresponsive as well.
    I tried to do one of those at a yoga studio and it straight up flew right into a wall despite having 20 GPS satellites connected
    What am I missing here? My drone even crashed outdoors as well just because I was in between 2 buildings. I just can't imagine risking the drone like that, even with propeller guards if the drone won't respond it won't matter

    I started about 1 year ago with very little knowledge and no skill. I have just recently pasted my 107 and have purchased a mini 3 pro and a mavic 3 pro, both with the RC controller. my question is ... can I do mapping using the RC, or will I need to use my Ipad as a controller ?

    • @DroneU
      @DroneU  Год назад

      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.
