Topics:   Java Blog

Before Java Post Aerial Photography launches our latest UAV - the Freefly ALTA - into the skies, our UAV technician, Trevor Bennett, has to put the unit through its paces on the ground. As any experienced UAV operator will tell you, a lot more time is spent on the shop bench doing maintenance (both pre and post-flight) than is ever spent in the air. That's a very important part of safe and…
