I have flown my Mavic 3T over the ocean a handful of times and this is very helpful. I was one of the 4 individuals rescued off the coast of NC in the early morning hours of August 14th. I will recommend to the USCG station at Oak Island, NC, to use a drone once they arrive in the search area. Don't know if they'll use that info, but it might've helped to find us in the water sooner. I realize we were far out to sea and well out of range from the shore, but, having one aboard their 47' Rescue Craft searching in Thermal cannot be anything but helpful. Ben Wiggins Hampstead, NC

We're just happy that you were found! Drones are becoming much more common for search and rescue operations, so it isn't too far-fetched an idea that organizations like the USCG will being implementing them out at sea.

We're glad to hear that you found our drone helpful, particularly for marine search and rescue. Our team strives to create informative and valuable content for our viewers, and we appreciate your positive feedback!

Where do you see the gps location of the drone to relay the info

Defining the southern range would restrict the targets, they would stand out (for ex. tmp between 90 deg and 107 deg).

Great job ! I noticed you can't see what's under the water.

cool👍

Great stuff! Im always partial to White Hot. For me, normally its the easiest to pick out targets. But this shows examples of scenarios when Black Hot is useful! Looks like when the sun is up and to the drones back Black Hot works really well! With the sun to its front White Hot works better. For my eyes anyway. Im old too! lol Now.

If you're operating in areas with frequent rain or inclement weather, the Matrice family of drones are IP rated to fly in less-than-favorable conditions!

Are you allowed to use DJI for unofficial use since DeSantis banned DJI for government use?

Same here, they are not allowed for government use in south florida. Would be a great tool for Fire Rescue.

Very interesting video. Are the surfers wearing wet suits? This may change visibility.

Thermal would pick up heat signatures from the wetsuit

If a target is located can you retrieve the Lat and Long?

It does not have a rangefinder like a M30T. I suppose if you flew directly over the subject. You can relay that information.

@@DroneNerds How cool would that be if you get realtime latitude and longitude on the screen. The data is definitly there because of the GPS. Rigged for rescue and has deployable flotation or dye marker.
