DJI Phantom 4, Mavic 2 and Parrot Anafi are all popular Ready-to-Fly drones. But that doesn’t mean they can take-off anytime. To carry out safe flights, these drones need to be setup properly pre-flight.
To better understand how drone parachute works, our test team at AlteX invited Parazero to demonstrate their SafeAir system with DJI Mavic 2 Pro. After 2 drone crashes and 3 failed deployments, we have much to share about drone parachute systems.
In Oct 2019, we were invited to test the DJI Mavic Mini with Vistek just before DJI’s product launch. For a drone that weighs only 249 grams, DJI certainly delivered in terms of camera specs and flight performance.

Drone technology has become more and more automated in recent years. These automated machines made pilots wonder why you would need drone training. The answer to this is simple: with high level automation, there is a bigger need to understand the equipment and workflow so pilots can manage the automated process. With professional-led training, you can improve pilot skills more efficiently and put that learning time toward effective operations.
AlteX provided complete drone training to Northland team, including an intensive Drone Ground School Online and Customized Flight Training and Equipment Setup on Northland Power’s solar site. The company wanted to learn how to safely and efficiently use DRONE to inspect hundreds of thousands of solar panels – a task that has, until now, involved a staggering amount of manual labor.
With the continuing development of today’s drone industry, there are always new updates on technology, software and solutions. Drone Flight Field is no longer just a place for pilots to fly, but to also test equipment, explore technologies and network with other industry professionals.
Drone technology has evolved drastically over the past 5 years, providing a wide range of automated solutions with precision and efficiency to many traditional industries.
9 years ago, I climbed a rocky cliff in northern Killarney with Alex to capture nature photography. When I stood there admiring the breathtaking view, I was very much out of breath from the 2-hour hike with over 20kg of filming gear on our backs. That was our 7th nature filming expedition that year. Exhausted, I found myself wishing for a flying camera to take away the crane, slider, tripod… and instead giving us the unlimited angel, range and possibilities of filming.
Every AlteX course is driven by our students’ demand. From a simple workshop to Transport Canada compliant Ground School, Flight Training, and workflow setup. Our training is designed to help students through every stage of their operations.
