076. Ferrari Chasing Drones with Wolfgang Weber

If you're looking to make the jump from sporadic revenue to scalable and consistent growth in your drone business, TDT Pro is for you! Check out The Drone Trainer Pro right here! Wolfgang Weber (IMDB) is from Ottawa, but moved to Los Angeles 11 years ago to follow his dreams. Waiting tables led to a few acting gigs, then a few drone gigs, and then a few combo drone and acting gigs! Being a drone pilot, he was able to negotiate a few early roles based on his drone skills, while also inserting himself into the script. Since picking up the sticks, he's started AIRWOLF Drones. Wolfgang started flying a DJI Phantomin 2015, and has since moved up to the Inspire, newer Phantoms, as well as the M600. He also drops a total bomb about the DJI Zenmuse X7 that I was shocked to hear! So far, Wolfgang's favourite projects have been resort work down in the Bahamas, as well as chasing Ferrari around a track during the Ferrari Challengein California. He worked the Ferrari Challenge along with LA Drones, and their fleet of Inspire 2's, and where their work was broadcast live back to Italy. Talk about an awesome job, where you have you have to be on top of your game! Fellas, sign me up for the next go round! Things aren't all roses though, as Wolfgang has experienced some trouble with his Inspire 2. He's had issues with a limp gimbal, batteries not connecting, gimbal vibration port, and a variety of other errors. He's tried refreshing the firmware, however it seems to be a constant problem for him. Luckily, he's part of a great network of drone pilots in Los Angeles, so if his drone has trouble, there is always another Inspire 2 nearby. So, being an actor as well as a drone pilot, I had to ask for tips on how to get into the industry. Wolfgang doesn't hold back as he lets us know exactly what you should do if you're interested in becoming a Hollywood drone pilot. If you like what you heard from Wolfgang Weber, get out there and take action! Maybe you'll even see him on set sometime! And, if you'd be awesome enough to share this episode with your other drone friends, I'd be ecstatic! Share away, and keep the spinny side up!
