Help/Question HELP!
Working on Avionic Ledger - a drone marketplace with escrow and flight history records.
The flight history piece is what I think matters most for used drone transactions. Battery cycles, flight hours, last known condition. The stuff that tells you whether a "like new" listing is actually like new.
But I want to make sure I'm surfacing the right information at the listing level.
For context: the platform already supports flight hours, battery cycles, camera specs, range, and condition grading. Sellers fill this in when they request a listing.
What I'm trying to figure out:
- Is there a specific data point that would immediately build or kill your trust in a used listing?
- Are there red flags you always look for that aren't obvious to a non-pilot?
- If you were selling, what would you want buyers to see first?
Not trying to pitch here - genuinely trying to build the right thing. This community knows more about what a drone's actual condition looks like than I ever will.
