Brupeg is officially launched! Please consider supporting the project each week with a few dollars
In part two, we take you back through the last two days of the prep for launch, right up to her release into the wild (ish). It was a chaotic and busy two days, and it all happened faster than we expected. The team is having a little rest before duncan arrives for another intensive week of work to get the Cummins 855 started. Then we are onto the final in water engine alignment, chock fast 2.0 and hopefully sea trials to follow shortly afterwards.
Thank you to everyone that helped get us here and for the team that helped during the two days of launches Duncan, Julie, Tom, Trev, Tony, Brent, Bruce, the yard team and the awesome Patrick in his Red Tug Solonika.
Well thats the first job done; build and launch boat… onto the next job.
Thank you everyone for watching and making this possible

Frequently Asked Questions
Is a photography drone worth it?
If you're serious about starting your own business, you'll eventually realize there's nothing more important than having a great product. A killer product is essential if you are going to market yourself.
The problem with most photographers is that they're not selling themselves. They try to convince someone else to purchase their stuff rather than convincing them to do it.
You won't be allowed to wait for anyone else when you start your own business. You will need to get out there and find customers immediately.
That means you'll need to create a compelling story that helps them figure out why they should buy your products instead of somebody else's.
A marketing strategy will be needed to market those products. But even after you've done all that, you still might fail because you haven't figured out how to price your products correctly.
You might decide to charge too little. You might decide to charge too much. You're likely to make a mistake regardless of which way you go.
You can avoid making these mistakes by starting to think like a businessman. That doesn't mean you have to become a capitalist. You must learn to value your effort, time, and money.
You must also develop strategies to measure the success of your company.
Once you understand the pricing of your product, you can then focus on building the best product. A product that makes financial and creative sense.
It solves problems, and it provides real benefits.
One that stands apart from the rest.
You'll be ready to launch your product once you've created it. Now you are ready to build your business.
It doesn't really matter if your goal is to fly a drone or not. It will help you become a better photographer. It will also help you improve your photography skills. It will also help to expand your business.
Which drone should a beginner buy?
It is easy to fly a drone, and the best drones for beginners. These drones include those equipped with an FPV camera that allows users to remotely control the drone using a smartphone app.
Some quadcopters were specifically designed for aerial photography. You may choose a multirotor if your goal is to explore advanced features such an autonomous flight mode or obstacle avoidance.
There are two types in price of drones: cheap drones under $100, and more expensive drones over $300.
The cheapest models usually come with a limited range and battery life, while the most expensive ones feature better performance and longer flight times.
Many beginners prefer to buy cheaper models because they are easier for them to handle and to learn how to use. If you plan on spending hours flying your drone, you might be interested in a higher-end model.
Which drone can hold a DSLR camera?
Drones are becoming more useful for everyday tasks. Already, drones are equipped with cameras capable of aerial photography.
But even though drones have been around for years, most people haven't used them much because they aren't practical. Drones are expensive and noisy, making them difficult to control.
We created the Drone-A1. It is the first quadcopter with fully autonomous flight that was designed especially for photographers.
The Drone-A1 features an HD camera that captures stunning videos and photos. With its powerful onboard computer, the Drone-A1 can track a subject and not need human intervention.
You can now focus on taking great photos while the Drone-A1 will take care of hovering, flying and following your subject.
Smart Follow makes it easy to get amazing shots using the Drone-A1. Point the Drone-A1 towards your subject, and it will automatically track him or her and keep the distance between the two of you constantly.
You will have more freedom and greater convenience shooting with the Drone-A1. There's no need to be a steady hand or know where your subject is.
The Drone- A1 also has a GPS, which allows you to share photos with family and friends. This way, everyone can view your pictures from anywhere in the world.
Whether you're a professional photographer or enjoy taking pictures for fun, the Drone-A 1 is perfect for you.
Statistics
Compared to the old days of the Phantom, this drone is super small, but it will likely require you to check a bag, the way a Mini 3 Pro could easily stow away in an oversized pocket. (thedronegirl.com)
Homes with aerial images sold 68% faster than homes with standard images. (alexdronephotography.com)
Here's proof: according to an analysis of FAA drone registration numbers by drone market research and data group Drone Industry Insights, DJI had a 76.8% market share in the U.S. (thedronegirl.com)

Greater than 50% throttle stick position generates positive thrust, but less than 50% throttle stick position reverses the direction of the motors, allowing upside-down flying! (photographypro.com)
If a drone becomes an extension of your body, then it's considered to be at a good distance. You lose sight of the drone's physical boundaries when you view it as an independent entity.
For drones, a good distance allows you to fully immerse your self in the environment without having to worry about where the drone is going next.
It also has psychological benefits. It gives us a sense of control over our surroundings, making us feel more connected with nature.
However, there are also some drawbacks. Flying near the ground means we are exposed to wind and weather conditions that could damage the drone. How far from the ground can you fly?
It depends on the drone type you have. It is a good idea to maintain a minimum of 500 feet above the ground when you are trying to capture aerial footage.
You might choose to film a cityscape at 1,000 feet, for instance. This will allow you to avoid obstructions like trees and buildings.
Low-light conditions are a problem for drones. You can decrease the time spent hovering if you fly in darkness by lowering your altitude.
Also, ensure the area you are flying in is clear of any obstacles such as power lines, traffic signs, or tall buildings.
It may be a good idea to fly during the day, rather than at night. This will help you avoid reflections from street lights and shadows.
The drone's size is another important consideration. The closer the drone is to the ground, the greater its size. For example, a large quadcopter will usually require a minimum height of 300ft.
If you're looking for amazing drone footage, make sure to look for the golden hours.
This is the time period between 3pm and 6pm. You have the best visibility due to the direct overhead sun.
It is also known for its "magic hour", which is perfect for capturing stunning images.
It is best to avoid flying your drone after sunset or sunrise. These times are notorious for producing poor-quality footage.
Now that you've got all these tips, it's time to start creating amazing drone videos.
