Companies especially Founders are not training their Business development/sales people in the right direction. This is what happened with not just 1, but 3 companies who approached me. Same story from another founder too. They make similar products like ours and asked can we host their products on our website. I am like, why would I do that?! I asked them the same question, will you host our products on your website. Blank answer. This is the problem. Founders are not teaching and guiding their team in right direction. Who they need to approach and who are their right customers. They try to sell similar products to companies who make similar stuff because they have been told to make calls. They are fixed on targets and call a list of people. No prior market research understanding.

We demo'ed this drone everywhere we possibly could in the last one month. Delhi(couldn't fly), Bangalore(we flew it indoors, video in the comments) and then in Hyderabad. One amazing feedback or comment we got was, "This drone feels like DJI. Rock solid stability, responsive and well tuned". This is what we strive for! How many of you are interested in getting a drone platform like this? A complete drone kit(excluding radio controller and any payloads). Comment below. We may plan to put it up on the website.

Hyderabad trip has come to an end! It was amazing! Lot of lessons learnt. There are really good companies working on cool stuff who also liked our products. Now back to the cave building what the users want. A lot of cool stuff is in development. Hope to share some more soon!

We are done with Delhi Expo and demos, done with Mumbai demos, then we are done with Bangalore Expo and now we are on the way to Hyderabad demos. We will be there in Hyderabad almost the whole week! We are scheduled to do demos for the next 2 days. I used to do Roadshows in the US demonstrating industrial robots and cobots. And now it's all about drones! More cities to come! What will be next?

The drone is so easy to fly. Completely stable even without GPS/GNSS. Thanks to Agam FloRange Sensor which has Optical Flow sensor and TOF sensor integrated which makes drones easy to fly.

Fly stable, fly safe with @AgamRobotics drone flight controllers. Laksh got an opportunity to try out their innovative build frame.

A fruitful day. Laksh earned the @AgamRobotics AutoPilot by demonstrating his work. @karthikRanga92 handed over the module after reviewing his progress and pushed him with the next set of challenges.

A throwback to my first FPV drone from 2017 which had flown in the streets of New York City! I built this drone from the first payment of my on-campus job at NYU and used my old camera from 2014. Fun fact: Many in the FPV world will lose their first drone in crashes, broken, lost in the woods or water bodies, etc. I still have this with me intact. It has survived so much bashing and abuse.

Now it's Solar. Next would be drones. If they do it, 80% of the drone sector would be closed. This is why we need to be self-reliant. We @AgamRobotics are focused on being self-reliant.

There we go.

Bangalore Drone Expo was so overwhelming that I still haven't come out of it! The crowd, questions, conversations, discussions, sales, myths and breaking those(like are we really making it in India? Yes, that was the question!), enquires, etc was wild. As few visitors resonated, we felt there were many companies selling Chinese parts and drones and few did indigenous. Surprisingly there were few stalls put up by Chinese companies themselves. Not sure how that was even allowed. Nevertheless we got a good amount of visibility, many didn't know us and got to know what we do. Had a few of my followers from here visiting our stalls as well and was happy when they said they were inspired by what we do. Excited about what comes next! Oh wait, components shortages! That's what is coming next! We have a lot of work to do. Bye.

We met a few of our existing customers who visited our stall at Drone Expo. It was quite overwhelming to hear from them that Agam Autopilot and other products are working wonderfully for them and they are excited to see all our future products. We will again be there in the Drone Expo happening at BIEC this week! Do visit our stall and look at all the products.

I am super obsessed in making even the small stuff where many companies just import it. For example, I know many in the industry import PCBs, enclosures and other tiny parts. But I was obsessed with making this in India even if it has taken longer than it should. If what we are working goes well, it may look like nothing, just a small part but it would be a wild thing to attempt doing it here at double the cost, scale it and try to bring the price down. Most of your question would be, why? Just why? My answer would be, I'd like to make sure we will be able to do it, in the worst case scenario, where other countries don't allow us to import those parts. In simpler terms as my co-founder puts it, "We need to be self-reliant. Period."

I have always said this. As much as possible Indian hardware startups and Cos should get their manufacturing done in India. They go to extremes in terms of pricing to beat their competitors from other countries like India even if that hurts their profit. For example, PCBs are so cheap that they want you to go with them. They don't care about profits. They know exactly the import duty of a country and bring the cost low so that the total cost is still cheaper than what you get locally. They are here to crush the market and once all dead, you'll be forced to pay the price. Go local and support them as much as you can and wherever you can. It will take time to bring prices down but it will benefit the nation and economy. Do this if you truly love your own company and your own country. This may sound patriotic, yes it is. But more than that it's about self-reliance. Stop labeling imported products as Made in India. Every company eventually has been caught. No one can get away from this.

I guess what happened to Pharma in 2000 is happening in 2020 for hardware products. China is selling cheaply to destroy Indian alternatives and then the world has to buy at the prices they set.
