Selecting a Drone for 3D Modeling, Unboxing, and First Flight

This is a different kind of video – as many of you know, I’ve been very interested in the idea of creating 3D models from drone an aerial footage. In this video, I talk about what I considered when selecting a drone, show you which one I picked, what came with it, and I show video from my first flight. In future videos, we’ll talk about using the drone to capture things like photos for photo match, photos for photogrammetry, the possibility of using a drone to capture background images, and more!

About Justin Geis

Hi, I'm Justin Geis, and I'm the founder of The SketchUp Essentials. I started using SketchUp as part of my work as a general contractor in 2008. I quickly realized the power of the software and started using it for personal projects. I started The SketchUp Essentials as a place to share easy to follow SketchUp tutorials and tips to help everyone harness the power of 3D Modeling in their lives. When not working with SketchUp, I enjoy playing soccer and spending time with my wife and our two dogs.
