Great video : Map URL referred to is -> monitor.use-snip.com/?hostUrl=rtk2go.com&port=2101 (Just thought it would be handy for people to copy+paste, hope you don't mind)
Thank you! I actually meant to do that - I did post a link to the page that had everything in but you are correct it is better to have it in the description, so I have updated it. Thanks for the assist!!
Good stuff Barry!
Thanks Tony! Glad you liked it :)
@@aviosmedia It had been a while since I looked at their caster list, so your video was a good reminder of them. And I pleasantly found a few new surprises.
Great video, many thanks 👍
You're welcome!
Hello, I'm new and I've already seen many of your videos. Question: to use the DJI MAVIC 3E+ the RTK Module, is it mandatory to also purchase the D RTK-2? I am thinking about doing topographic surveys, what precision would I obtain with and without RTK.
Hi. Thanks for the question. No, it is not necessary to buy the D-RTK-2 if you have an RTK unit. You have several options: 1. D-RTK-2 - this is your own base station but must be placed on a known point. If you know how to create a known point - great. If not, see my other video that shows how to find an existing one kzread.info/dash/bejne/dKhsr8iQhZO3aKw.html. Note that the D-RTK only works with DJI - it is easier to set up on DJI but if you buy another type of drone or want to use it with a GNSS rover then you could be stuck. 2. Buy another precision GNSS rover, such as an Emlid Reach RS2 or RS3. The M3E can connect to this easily and it is cheaper and works with anything, so you are not locked in to DJI which, if you live in the US with the law changes proposed might be a good thing. 3. Use a CORS / NTRIP server. These are base stations that are all over the country. that broadcast connection signals that you can connect to over the internet. Many municipalities have free ones that you can connect too and there are also paid ones. I showed how to do this using Dronelnik in a previous video (kzread.info/dash/bejne/ZKuFpduef6rXicY.html) and using it with Pilot 2 is very similar. This also has information on how to buy an RTK module at about 1/3rd the US price (if you are in the US). I will also be putting out a new video tonight that shows how to connect to a free service that is a global called RTK2Go so if you are subscriber you will get notified of that when it goes out this evening. Hope that helps!
@@aviosmedia Great, thanks for your response. Resolve my doubts. I will be attentive to the new video!
re. "...a lot of people are not aware of". Me for example. :-) Very good demonstration.
Glad you liked it :).

Great video thanks for taking the time to show dronelink to new users like myself. How do you set the interval speed to 2 seconds beforehand? Im planning a simple mission for creating a 3d model of a tall obelisk using pre planned orbits. Then using this on the fly workflow ill be able to get more pictures from dofferent angles after getting the feel of the place and terrrain. Tha nks, JJ from uk
I set that ahead of time, usually in the DJI app. But, if you are going to be doing this more than once you can save the mission and then edit it to add the camera commands ahead of the orbit so that you never forget.
I have large project. About 1400 photos. How can i create small size dsm? Or do i need to split into several part?
Go to about 1:45 in that video. It shows how to adjust the detail level to get smaller file sizes.
Outstanding instruction. Precise delivery and perfect speed
Thank you! Much appreciated.
Please tell me how will M3E return to home when we choose optimal mode and fly at fix elevation over DSM .
I never leave it up to the drone. Either set the RTH above the highest point, or fly ir back manually.
Thanks Avios Media..Your video on this is very educational for some of us trying out M3E RTK drone..Very informative 🙏🏼
I'm glad it was helpful. I have more on the way so remember to subscribe and tell your friends 😀
Wow..Great idea with this Slope feature..I was using the Area mapping tool and did not try something like this..Useful and very I sightful here🙏🏼🙏🏼🦺
Glad it was helpful!
Can I request a video about camera settings with regards to MF, AFC & AFS.? How to stop it switching back to MF if you have AFC or AFS selected and which setting she we use? Last request…. When setting up a mapping mission, let’s say an Ortho type for now and you have it set to “timed shots”. When you’ve planned the area, pressed save it will give you the number of images it will take and the length of time to do it. Should the number of images being taken increase or decrease if the timed camera shot is 0.7 seconds or every 2 seconds? It doesn’t appear to update the mission plan details before or during flight. Hope that makes sense.
I've taken a note of the request - thanks. No idea when I will get to it but hopefully soon. Since it's not Litchi, which software are you referring to for the mapping question?
@@aviosmedia it’s the standard DJI Pilot 2 App that comes installed with the controller in the Mavic 3 Enterprise.
@@firefighterleetiktok85 It should all be based on overlaps. If you increase the camera speed then it should adjust the flight speed to match and you end up with the same number of images.
@firefighterleetiktok85 I was just going over the list of videos for the future and looking at this request. Which software are you interested in seeing this with? I won't cover Litchi - it's not good mapping software, but happy to cover in Pilot 2 or Dronelink
Another great video.
Thanks again!
Wow, this is amazing. thanks for the video 👍
Happy you liked it!
Its not Avaidable on Mavic 3 Enterprise Thermal
I'll have to test when I'm back in the office in a couple of weeks. Is it just the vision one you're having trouble with or can you use thr dsm import?
@@aviosmedia I have the dsm Import butt im not used to it

Excellent. Ran it with smart oblique off and it ran 4 routes. Going to run it again with SO on and see the change. This vid made me understand this feature. Thanks👍🏻
Glad it helped!
Really interesting! I am based in the UK so hunted around for a similar resource data set. I have found the GeoIndex - British Geological Survey but not clear if there is a relevant data set to overlay for such markers shown in your video in the USA (but in the UK). I'd welcome your thoughts!
BGS Portal - UK : mapapps2.bgs.ac.uk/geoindex/home.html
I wish I knew. That said, the UK is one of the most mapped places in the world (thanks to the wonderful ordinance survey maps) and so I would be surprised if these didn't exist. Try searching for trig pillar and see what you come up with !
Thanks... Very Informative. In my area my nearest geo marker is a couple miles away from where I need to fly. I'd need an armed guard to protect my base station if I set it up over the marker! Other issue typically is there is a lot of tree cover that grew up over these old markers. OK for land surveyors but not so good for aerial surveying. As a work around I carry a chainsaw. Always be resourceful! Keep up the great videos Barry!
Agreed. A lot of these markers are super old and not in ideal locations. The demo one was on someone's path!
Do you know what Pilot 2's size limit is for the imported DSM?
I actually don't. For some reason 10mb is in my head but I could be totally wrong.
Great video. You helped me decide to purchase the DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise to expand my drone photography services. I will most definitely be watching this series of yours for more tips and tutorials.
Glad I could help! The M3E is a mapping beast!
Like Litchi's POI's. It's crazy how flexible and far ahead Litchi has been, despite being such an affordable, easy-to-use flight planner.
Agreed. Litchi has been good and is very cheap. Although for the M3E I believe it is a different app that is still in beta. If you like Litchi I would suggest looking into the Phantom and Mavic Filmschool. It has a lot of excellent videos on how to use Litchi to the fullest (including a few from me!) and will also teach you about a range of film making techniques.
I was wondering. Could you set an orbit to spiral up say a wind turbine?
Yes. I covered how to create a spiral in the orbit series - you can see that here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/k6hkq5ajoc3PmLQ.html. If you wanted to convert to inspection that is possible too.
Excellent overview, thanks. Interesting that there's so many ways to produce a final deliverable. Lot of options limited only by one's budget!
Glad it was helpful! It's also worth noting that it's best to include more than one if you can. e.g. use RTK during the capture and then PPK, GCPs or both. The MOST important one though is to use checkpoints. Without that you cannot be sure that everything came out as expected.
Not sure I understand. Does the GNSS receiver (base station) sends RTK correction to the rover in direct or it sends it to the controller then the controller send it to the rover. If second option, with which protocol?
When setting the GCPs you don't use the drone at all. Typically you use two GNSS receivers - one placed on a known location (future video on how to find those coming) and one that moves around. The first GNSS receiver (base) sends corrections to the second GNSS receiver (rover).
Great again Barry... Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it
Linked and subscribed! Please send the link for the discounted RTK module. Excellent videos - concise and professional with easy to understand graphics. Thank you!
Here's a link to where I bought my RTK unit from. www.ebay.com/itm/334877561253?mkevt=1&mkpid=0&emsid=e11051.m43.l1123&mkcid=26&ch=osgood&euid=a3524e70b83c47f49d442b15741235ff&bu=43169403264&osub=-1%7E1&crd=20240424045302&segname=11051 No affiliation with the company. I honestly thought it might be a scam because it was so much cheaper. But it was covered by ebay's money back guarantee so I thought it was worth a shot and it really is the real deal. I've given that to several other people that bought it and they were all happy with it. It takes a little bit longer to arrive as it is coming from China, but mine showed up in about a week. Best of luck!
Thanks for creating this, really useful to see it being used. Look forward to trying out myself.
Glad you found it helpful
Thank you so much for the videos. I appreciate your time and effort. Like and sub done sir.
Thank you. Much appreciated 👏
best explanation I've seen. Please ignore your 5min rule for this as it's such an important part for those whom using it for work and it could potentially be 4 weeks of 5 mins clips to explain it all. I'm sure everyone will agree and appreciate you making a long video.
Thanks! I'm glad you found it helpful. I do put out longer videos occasionally, but I keep them short for a couple of reasons. Many people like the shorter format as they can watch it straight away. Otherwise they put things in the "watch later" and then never get back to it. The other is that it takes time to put them together and, especially at the moment, I'm very short on time. I won't have time to get this out for tomorrow for sure.
@@aviosmedia did I see somewhere before that you do have longer videos on another video stream website?
No. I used to put stuff out on Vimeo - it has some advantages such as if there is a correction I can swap a video without changing the URL (and losing all the comments etc.). But...frankly...no one goes there so I finally switched to YT. I'd love to be able to do this full time - maybe one day!
@@aviosmedia I agree, I’m a full time firefighter in Hampshire doing 2days, 2nights and 4 days off so something that keeps me busy like drone work. I’ve created a number of good 3d models but the plan is to try setup a small drone business and map all the most used GA fields and then the 3d airfields can be licensed to Sky Demon as an example as all maps are old, heavy pixelated and always nadir due to them being satellite images. As a pilot myself it makes navigating airfields so much easy
@@firefighterleetiktok85 Sounds like a fun project. You've probably seen I have done other videos on 3D modeling.
hello, good video! I have a question for you. I’ve taken a photo of my face every day for the past 7 years and I’d love to compile them into a timelapse video where my eyes remain in the same position throughout the video. Could you please create a tutorial on how to do this in Adobe After Effects (or any other recommended software)? I’d really appreciate detailed steps on aligning the eyes and creating a smooth, consistent timelapse. Thank you so much!
Most of my videos are about drone stuff - there are probably people far more qualified to do that than I am.
Thank you for all the great videos. I am a bit unsure, though, about something. At 5:00 you indicate that an Enterprise or RTK is required, but then immediately after you say that one of the PROS is that you don't need an RTK enabled drone. Can you please clarify? TY
That's a great question! When processing PPK, most software (possibly all?) needs additional log files that contain additional timestamp information (mrk file) and additional gps log information (bin or obj file). On DJI drones, these are only created if you have an enterprise drone that has an RTK module installed. For example, the Mavic 3 Enterprise will create these but only if the RTK module is installed. If the little module is not installed they are not created. When you are using RTK you need a constant signal between the drone, the controller and the base station (or NTRIP/CORS station if you are using that). If that fails you get errors. But if you know that you are going to use PPK then you don't have to enable RTK, just have the module installed so that the extra files are created. So it needs an enterprise drone...but RTK does not need to be turned on (enabled). Now...there is a part of me that says that since even non-RTK drones timestamp the photos, and have GPS, that you could theoretically still use PPK here. And, in fact, you can if you use GCPs, but that is in the next video. However, smarter people than me tell me that non-RTK drones are only single band, vs dual band, and that means they are not accurate enough. Hopefully that makes sense and clears it up but, if not, let me know
@@aviosmedia Thank you for the great explanation. I do fly the M3E with RTK and Emlid Reach RS2... and did not know that the module had any function without the RTK being enabled. I can't thank you enough. I'll keep watching!
@@DanDroneATL I'll get the GCP one out as soon as I can. Unfortunately (or fortunately depending on the viewpoint) I'm crushed with jobs right now so it might take a little longer than I hoped.
@@aviosmedia Thank you, sir. I did a little test yesterday and can firm that the M3E does create (3) addition data files when the RTK module is installed, but not connected. Wondering... are these good for anything (added accuracy processing, etc.) without being connected to a GNSS receiver. Thank you again for all you do.
@@DanDroneATL You doubted me :o. Just kidding - trust but verify always! I'm told that the RTK antenna is a dual band and the standard is a single band so, in theory, this should be more accurate. Now...here's an interesting thing and something i may do a five minute Friday on at some point. Most CORS/NTRIP providers not only provide a signal for correction in real time, but also keep all of that data historically. So you can go to a provider, download the RINEX files from that date, and then use something like Emlid Studo to correct the EXIF data of your photos ala PPK (post processing remember). So, yes, they are useful to have. Hope that helps!
Seems something of a lost art to be able to take complex systems and to boil them down to something close to the "need to know" essentials that can be understood by non experts. Now armed with some basic understanding of these systems I'm looking forward to learning more.
That's what I do try to do as much as I can, so I'm glad you found it helpful :)
FYI Adobe Photoshop will now do this automatically for you basically if you use file > scripts > import into stack!
Nice. That avoids the need to import into LR first - thanks.
Thanks for another super informative 5MF Barry….looking forward to part two…: )
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you, thank you, please continue. 🚁
Will do! I have a super hectic period coming up but I'm hoping to keep to the weekly schedule when I can
Clearest explainer on all of KZread! You win the Internets today Barry! Thanks!
Thank you Daniel!!
Very nice. I want to hear a bit more about getting known point to place the base station. Sometimes is not so easy to get one.
That is another great rabbit hole to go down. There are a few interesting options here, and some new ones that are starting to happen. Will certainly cover that in the future.
Great video. Waiting for the next one. I like youtubers showing the topic instead of showing their own face.
More to come! There's a good reason for that. I have a face for radio :).
Super video, thank you. Please do more on this subject.
Will do!
Thanks. Looking forward to the next part. Another clarification pertinent to accuracy would be Absolute Vs Relative. The correct understanding of this decides the equipment to be used and the type of output needed. Do clarify if my understanding is right.
A great rabbit hole to go down! I'll try to incorporate that more into the next video - or at least a future video. Thanks!
Ok, so how in hell did you ever come up with this?! 😲 I work a lot with LR and often use their maps but never dawned on me how I could use LR as a tool like this when working with Orthos in DL! (writing as I waiting for WebODM to work through latest 267 ortho). Great job-- thanks. 👍
I've been finding ways to solve problems with software since I left school. I put it down to being too lazy to do stuff that the computer can do for me :)
