Behind The Crash Of 3D Robotics, North America's Most Promising Drone Company "There are no drones in the sky right now, and that is so weird,” he remarked, pointing to the heavens. “When you talk about a blue sky opportunity, we really are looking at one." “I’d never seen a market with price...

Yes, unfortunately 99% of the cases... I guess: they will keep building Drones against the french Parrot/Sensefly and GoPro/Karma... But what is 3DR is gonna do next? I guess: 3DR has definitely change to a software company, with a main product, an enterprise solution: Site Scan and the new...

“History never repeats itself, but it does rhyme.” If you have spare time, I recommend reading a similar old story with 12 chapters about: 90's computer dream machine: Commodore Amiga History of the Amiga | Series | Ars Technica When it first arrived, the Amiga was a dream machine... "But the...

Excelent! But I was referring to SOLO specific repos at 3D Robotics · GitHub: GitHub - 3drobotics/ardupilot-solo GitHub - 3drobotics/mavlink-solo: MAVlink Protocol Setup for solo ...

Thank's for the excellent news P2P, THAT'S THE WAY TO GO! And congratulations to all behind this initiative! 3DR is changing their business model to the newest Autodesk's "subscriptions": autocad, recap , bim-360 , fusion-360 , etc. Probably because they believe that's the way to go...
