I kinda feel bad for pilots that are trying to make a go of it with just a drone. My company has been doing high end video production and photography work for 30+ years. We initially sub-contracted out the drone work until it was more lucrative to do it ourselves. Our Inspire Pro X5 is just one of many tools in the toolbox. We started out doing quite a bit of drone work but that has steadily declined. Now it's back to the basics and business is good. I do use the Inspire occasionally but the "thrill is gone" for most of my clients. Not that they don't want aerials anymore but the new has definitely faded. We use our drone services as an up-sell for work we are already contracted for. I'm lucky in that we have a sales team that keeps us very busy. And no matter how good you think you are at flying a drone - the key to success is SELLING your services. Being good at flying is just a prerequisite.... and relying on some 3rd party service that sells your drone skills for fish bait is a dead end as many are finding out. Just my 2 cents.
