    Thanks, Cindy! The Andean Altiplano is a challenging place for aerial vehicles because of its remoteness and high elevation over 12,600 ft above sea level. I want to be sure to get the most reliable, field tested vehicle that will produce high-quality imagery. Fortunately, other archaeologists have used drones there, and they've had great success with the DJI Phantom making it a logical choice.

    This project sounds awesome! What made you decide that the DJI Phantom 4 was the best drone for this project?
