Flight #13 - Using Drones in Large Scale Natural Disaster Relief

Now that a number of the large scale UAV/RPAS tradeshows have come and gone, the RMUS team has reassembled in our studio to discuss what they saw at the first in-person AUVSI Xponential since COVID started. We also recap our hands-on time with the new Fluke Sensor that can listen for and detect leaks in pipes before they are bad enough for anyone to notice. The upcoming open house happening with all our industry partners at the RMUS Canada's facility, and Dan Cyr with GlobalMedic joins us to explain how they make horrible situations a little better by using drones where natural disasters have just occurred.

This episode's cast includes:

Bryan Calhoun - Podcaster in Command (host), RMUS
Kevin Toderel - General Manager, RMUS
Jacob Bradford - Certified Drone Technician, RMUS
