Budget quadcopter for Google Maps panoramas?
Hello
Recently, I have been traveling around the country and often encounter the fact that it is impossible to see a normal panorama of a particular area / sight, and the existing photos are far from the desired quality. I don’t know much about copters, so I ask for your advice.
I need a copter from which I can upload 360° panoramas to Google maps. According to their requirements, the resolution must be at least 7.5 MP (4K) with an aspect ratio of 2:1, and the size should not exceed 75 MB. Moreover, I would like the copter to glue photos into a panorama of sufficient quality for Google. But this is optional. Basically, I can learn. Another important note is the weight and size. The backpack is not rubber, if you know what I mean. I saw models with folding beams, it looks interesting. By weight - 500 g limit. Regarding the range of controlled flight ... even 50 meters is enough for me, but if more is possible, then this is super. And the last thing, contrary to what was said earlier, I don't have a lot of money...
Without thinking to ask for advice earlier, I spent several days searching for information and went to the Wingsland S6 drone (version V2) with the "Search Light" and "Wingsland All-around Obstacle Sensing & Avoidance" accessories. But I'm confused by the battery capacity (1400 mAh). I found larger batteries on aliexpress, but I'm afraid that some kind of game will come. In principle, you can just buy a few batteries and change them in the course of shooting. Of the slightly more expensive ones, I liked the Xiaomi FIMI X8 SE.
What is the actual question. What do you think of the drones I have chosen? Are they suitable for my task? If not, can you suggest me something suitable within $400 (preferred) / $700 (max)?
Thank you for your attention
