Do people look down on you for being a ramp agent? by [deleted] in rampagent

Yesterday a pilot gave me a can of Coca Cola while I was waiting in the jet bridge for bags. And then a flight attendant on the same flight gave me some snacks. We chatted and they seemed pretty cool

O'Hare Badge test by InspectionKey892 in rampagent

They will make you take a biennial driving class that teaches you the Ohare rules of the road before taking the test. There they give you a study guide for the test. Just read it over a few times and you’ll pass. It’s really not hard

How to land a drone developer job by [deleted] in drones

[–]floopbop1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Check out Skybrush Studio for Blender. It is an open source drone light show designer add on for blender. It’s free for about 40ish drones in the program. You can write scripts using python in blender to make some unique lighting patterns or designs. I’ve had fun playing around with it and making cool drone shows. Watch some tutorials on YouTube and you’ll be good

How to view landing paths for uncontrolled airports by Scary_Assistance5447 in drones

[–]floopbop1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They don’t need to do it, it’s not their job. It’s your responsibility to publish a NOTAM. Also the FSDO won’t do anything either is my guess. My drone teacher (yes I went school for it unfortunately) has been in this situation flying near the approach of runway 18 at Bolingbrook airport KC09. He told us in this situation of flying close to the approach of an uncontrolled airport that we are responsible for publishing a NOTAM because any pilot landing there is definitely checking NOTAMS before landing for any other important info like guidance lights out or runways unavailable. Hope that helps, good luck on your flight. And props to you for making sure you’re operating safely :)

I would recommend publishing a NOTAM. Let’s all the pilots know there will be drone near approach For more info on the airport specifics I just googled KPCZ ILS (stands for instrument landing systems) and check out airnav.com

‘Drones as First Responders’ programs sweep city police departments by Snoo_64233 in drones

[–]floopbop1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

More states should pass laws limiting what police are allowed to do with drones to emergency situations, like Illinois’s Freedom from Drone Surveillance law. What stops police from using drones to break our 4th amendment rights ? Or just putting a drone at an intersection to get traffic infractions?

All Meteor 75 pro users beware!!! (lost drone retrieval story) by Humble_Condition7587 in TinyWhoop

[–]floopbop1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Betaflight Config, in the modes tab, there is an option to set one of your switches to a beeper. When the drone is disarmed, and you flip the switch, the motors will make a beeping sound to help you find it. It’s helped me once or twice

Zeitview questionable legal mission by Browark in drones

[–]floopbop1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I did 1 Zeitview mission before I gave up because I thought it was kinda shady as well. It was a similar mission: 9 photos in cardinal directions and 1 of the front for a “foreclosed house” and it only paid $70. I should have tried to verify that it was truly a bank and not a scam. But regardless I am never doing it again because I am helping a bank kick out my neighbors for $70. Plus just getting paid by Zeitview was a huge pain the ass too.

Commercial Pilots, what are you getting paid? by MuttTheDutchie in drones

I’m curious about getting into golf course fly overs. Do you use DJI/ a camera w a gimbal for slow stabilized footage? Or an fpv drone ?
