Timmins SAR just got a flying teammate: the DJI Matrice 4TD — a 'Cadillac' drone with IR and AI that spots heat through snow, can search by color, and flies in blizzards.

Donated via Global Medic/Ontario Corps as a provincial rescue tool. #DroneSAR #Timmins

Well our plans changed for a photography and flying day, as SRTs with West Cumbria Search and Rescue we were called out on a SAR operation for a missing elderly gentleman.

Full day of flying, went through 10 batteries between the Autel Evo 640T and our trusty Air2S, 87gb of data before light (and our vision) started to go.

Sadly not found yet but ground teams are carrying on and we are charging up incase we're called out again.

Couple of shots while there, not what we were hoping to get today, but SAR callout obviously far more important.

I've been encountering some very troubling results using a #DJI Mavic 2 Air for testing #OpenAthena.

On old firmware versions, the drone incorrectly reports its altitude a few hundred meters below terrain, in both XMP and EXIF metadata
