    Trying to start w/ a Q500 4K, what is best & worst used for?

    I've had people say that if it's not automatically done it's not "professional" do you think that's true for mapping or are they just doing it a simpler (more costly upfront) way as if there's no other way of doing it? Also I appreciate the links, I'm also curious about your opinions comparing...

    Trying to start w/ a Q500 4K, what is best & worst used for?

    I'm glad more people see the value in it still, I hope they can release another version sometimes in the near future as I think it would get a great advantage over DJI's if they were to open the software capabilities.

    Trying to start w/ a Q500 4K, what is best & worst used for?

    Hello all, I'm new to drones and I'm wondering why isn't the Q500 4K isn't more popular, it seems like a steal for the price! A drone with a good battery life, reasonably priced, from a reliable company, that can be insured so if damaged it can be claimed, w/3-axis gimbal for good original...
