HERE IT IS! The Complete Guide on using a Drone to read the winds!

Charts, videos, step by step instructions on how to read the winds aloft with a drone. You can slowly get away from using your helium balloons. Even if you still wish to use a small helium balloon to read the winds the visibility charts and climb rates in this presentation will give you a better understanding about how high and how far you are actually seeing your pi-ball. A small drone can give you better, more accurate winds aloft than you can get from any other source. This download includes a power point presentation. A PDF version and the Speakers notes on each of the nearly 40 informative slides!
