I built my first drone in 2014 completely from parts, there were no complete units then. I needed to do the wiring and the codding in Arduino. It was very hard and took months just to make it fly then it crashed because the hardware and avionics were really bad.

I am a Landscape Architect with a GIS certificate. I went up to the FAA center in Longmont after my degree in 2015 trying to find out when they were going to start offering licenses. They were no where near ready then.

I am using the drones for site mapping, 3d modeling, photos and video projects for myself and professional clients. I am taking the Drone Business, Real Estate Photo & Video and have completed the Drone Mapping, Drone Surveying and Drone Search & Rescue classes.
