Are newer drones making older equipment irrelevant? Do pilots need to constantly keep upgrading their equipment?

Today's episode is brought to you by Drone U In-person Flight mastery classes. If you're looking to enhance your flight skills (and who among us doesn't need to enhance our flight skills), we are hosting a day of flight training through our Flight Mastery Course. Our Flight Mastery course is a training based on our obstacle course built from 12 exercises to build confidence in student's ability to fly and make educated decisions in flight. The primary goal of the class is to teach students the strategies and techniques we've learned over the past several years that will enable students to fly with confidence and in a way that mitigates risk while pushing themselves to be the best pilot possible. Join us today !!

On today's show we discuss about drone equipment and if DSPs need to constantly purchase new equipment to keep up with the industry.

Today's question is from Justin, who is taking a break from performing drone jobs and would like to know if he needs to constantly keep up with the industry or if his current equipment would help him continue to seek jobs in the drone industry. Thanks for the question Justin, and we wish you a speedy recovery. We discuss about drone industry and how equipment in the industry remains to be relevant thanks to decisions from companies such as DJI. When then elaborate if today's equipment actually hold a true edge over their previous models and how pilots can still continue to seek jobs.

Tune in today to listen to the detail and information packed episode and learn more about drone equipment!!
