Hi all,
I have an interesting math problem (that I am too dang dumb to figure out myself).
I need to shoot a construction zone that is 2700' wide. The Field of View on the P4P is 84 degrees. So if I am shooting straight down, what altitude would I need to get the bird up to in order to cover the entire width of the location?
I have googled and tried several related calculators, but none of them are driven by the FOV and they often give answers that relate to the diagonal... or they just don't have the right specs for a drone camera.
This seems like it shouldn't be that difficult to calculate, but maybe I am THAT much of an idiot where I don't realize how complicated this is. I'm just asking how high I need to fly to capture a 2,700 foot wide location, with a camera that has an 84 degree field of view.
Thanks!
Matt
