WYNIT Announces Distribution Agreement with 3D Robotics

WYNIT Distribution announced today a new distribution agreement with 3D Robotics, North America’s largest personal drone company, known for pioneering advanced and easy to use consumer drone technology, and for the Pixhawk, the world’s most popular universal autopilot platform.

3DR is committed to helping people see their world from above. Their drones feature automated tablet-based mission planning, so you can either fly your camera with a controller or draw the path you want your drone to take, tell it where to point the camera, and capture incredible aerial photos and video hands-free. The company also introduced the world to 3PV™ Follow Me technology, which keeps you in the middle of your videos, and since all 3DR software is free and open source, the feature has been adopted by UAV companies around the world. All 3DR platforms also serve as robust tools for data analysis, enabling mapping, surveying, 3D modeling and more. Their technology is currently used across multiple industries around the world, including agriculture, construction, infrastructure, search and rescue and ecological study.

“3DR products like the IRIS+ are ideal for capturing high-quality aerial imagery—right out of the box they are extremely easy to use,” said Geoff Norman, Business Development Specialist for WYNIT Distribution. “Our resellers are very excited about the advanced capabilities that 3DR’s technology provides, such as the 3PV™ Follow Me feature that enables people to be their own one-man aerial film crew.”

“3D Robotics is proud to be partnering with WYNIT, who bring a lifetime of experience to distribution and logistics,” said Colin Guinn, 3DR’s SVP of sales and marketing. “They have an incredible reputation for reliability, and for enabling young and growing companies like ours to connect with as many customers and resellers as we can, while still retaining our personality.”

Under the new agreement, WYNIT Distribution, LLC will offer 3DR’s product catalog to authorized resellers in the United States.
