In today’s show, Paul and Haye team up to bring you some of the most interesting and most exciting drone stories of this week.
We kickstart this show by talking about a photographer who got into trouble for flying his drone in the Yellowstone National Park. What are the rules for flying your drone in a National Park? You will also learn how drone mapping is helping in relief efforts in Paradise, California.
We also talk about drone shoot downs. Are the FAA and the DOJ going after guys who commit these acts? Hearing Paul and Haye talk about current and past shoot downs is sure to interest you greatly. We also share the various benefits of the new Inspire 2 firmware update. Lastly, we talk about how Intel drone shows will be lighting up Christmas this year. Tune in to this informative show.
