This summer I have joined several UAS-Pilot-For-Hire services on the web. These include Droners.IO, Drone Base, Air-Vid, SkyTango and SkySwoop. Essentially, these services get requests from clients and they post the availability of a job. This week I did my first job for Drone Base which was a quick $40 building panorama and tiles in NW Portland. I went the extra mile of creating a a very rough 3D model of the building as well but I can’t tell from the service if the client even appreciated it. As a professional I hesitate to take part in these services because they tend to cheapen what I do as a profession but on the other hand if I can gain potential clients for future work through these efforts it may make it worth it.
