Everyone at work knows I love anything RC related and especially enjoy my drone. Well the boss asked me to fly it indoors today on a building we are doing an interior demo on as well as tomorrow for our 75th anniversary. I agreed, it was definitely sketchy and nerve wracking to fly indoors but I got it done successfully (No video of flight posted). After hours, he asked if I could fly it above the office and yard to grab a few pics for him so he could see how it looks before they set up for the party. He was very impressed with the quality and is super excited for me to fly it around tomorrow at the party!
Here’s a few pics of the office, and the yard😎

Nice. A guy I talk to over in the UK that I met back in my FPV Racing drone days got into doing that kind of stuff for a living. He destroyed two $15,000 DJI drones in his first few months 😅

Luckily the first one was covered by DJI after he dropped it in a 60' deep lake. The replacement arrived and the next day he was flying around a construction site and hit a cable on a huge crane. That one he had to pay for.

But there is good money in it after you get all the licenses, insurance, etc. Especially if you can manipulate and modify the 3d models of the surveyed areas afterwards. I always thought that would be a really cool job.
