I agree, but I think the industry has pretty much moved irrevocably away from that model... Even when you do get interchangeable payloads (like DJI and Autel Robotics) they all have to be payloads that the company themselves produced or partnered in producing...
@@Roswellflighttestcrew1947 It would be really nice to be able to incorporate this module into an ArduPilot drone. Since they have drivers for the Jetson Nano, I'd think it shouldn't be too hard for a hobbyist to add one to a drone. I like to think I could do something like this myself but I'm just not ready to pay the $3.5K (yet). I've thought a lot about this module since this video's release. Thanks for letting us know about all this cool tech *RFTC.*
Thermals seem to be pretty restricted. They won't give out the drivers to run them and many are ITAR restricted which basically means military and police only
