thanks for sharing!

this is the tricky part if you have an area with dense forest, then I only think 2 ways : 1. You can extent your area to the place that contain open small area and you can place the GCP there 2. You can use specific natural object as GCPs

Lurker, how do you place Ground Control Points (GCP's) if for example you must fly your drone above a dense forest or a wetland with low or no accessibility ?

1. recently after drone booming our government made a legal document to regulate drone , I think the main point or focus of the regulation is place that near airport or near military facility, or other official building, if you fly it on remote area or area far from plane route I think its okay to fly it without permission. This legal document regulate to send a permission before flying a drone. We dont have a drone operator registration yet. 2. of course, if your drone data isnt GSP'd , then your data useless for detail analysis, we use geodetic GPS to make a GCP. (Topcon GR-5) and we use a banner (1.5 m x 1.5 m) for land marking. this is the most exaustive part of drone project

I have 2 questions for Lurker: 1) do you need a special permission, a legal document to fly a drone in your country ? For example in USA, drone operators need to register (and to pay a fee) to Federal Aeronautical Agency, and similar situation is in some west European countryes ? How is in Indonesia ? 2) do you use Ground Control Points (GCP's) marked on the the land surface with the GPS when you fly your drone, to produce accurate orthophoto mosaics ? Thank you. Arhanghelul

nice info bro ...

just adding some information, when you want to build a UAV you need to know what your purpose, whether you need a copter or fixed wing, both have advantages and disadvantages I give you example from our project copter, easy to navigate, easy to control, suitable for small area, relative detail since copter can fly in low altitude. travel only in short distance compare to fixed wing fixed wing, suitable for large area, can fly in tenth of kilometers, hard to control especially at landing, cannot fly in low altitude,

nice information dude...someday perhaps i gonna build one..regards

hello recently we got a detail spec for low cost drone. custom build it used pixhawk original controller, and using Sony QX1 as a camera / censor all price in rupiah Indonesian
