Drones In Minnesota

I recently started this blog to share my thoughts on drones, referred to as their proper name, unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), specifically in Minnesota, and how they relate to by personal life and business.

About 4 years ago, I purchased a GoPro camera for a trip to Florida. In doing my research I came upon the DJI Phantom 2. The first version of the Phantom 2 carried a GoPro camera that was mounted to a gimbal, and then to the UAS. The later version, Phantom 2 Vision had it's own camera. Maybe this what when DJO learned GoPro was producing it's own drone. It was amazing and I thought, "You know what, this GoPro needs to fly. I was also an avid kayaker and helped guide people down the Minnesota River, so the UAS, GoPros and kayaks all kind of worked together for multiple uses.

Fast forward to today. I have started a company called Aerial Imagery Media. I focus on all areas of UAS. I have not found my niche just yet. I like experimentation and being pushed to do something new or learn a new technique. Most days, I am just learning all I can about UAS, the industry and the laws behind them. For me, the constant change keeps me focused.
