Synopsis

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! Niels has been flying drones for two years now, both in France and New Zealand. His girlfriend is from New Zealand, so he's been lucky enough to spend time in both countries, while flying his drone for work.

Previously before drones, Niels' team would have to measure tree heights by attending the location, and measuring individual trees. Now with drones, they are able to capture imagery of large areas, and quickly calculate all of the tree heights. Why does this matter? Well, it all comes down to financial efficiencies! Higher trees will block the wind, create fewer revolutions, and overall lower the value of the wind farm. Niels is flying the DJI Ma
