Idiot proof continuous insulation. Zip R Sheathing panels, part of the Zip System Sheathing family. These panels combine structural sheathing (water resistive barrier + air control layer) with polyisocyanurate foam insulation. Building science made easy.

Oh and another takeaway, if you use a drone for commercial work, you need to be part107 certified. Commercial work includes social media like YouTube if you plan to make an income off of that. I watched a video about this last May and then purchased the Part 107 Course https://sso.teachable.com/secure/2458... I studied and learned for 1 month and then took my test. I scored a 95%, which is a testament to how good Greg and the crew over there teach. That link will save you $100 off the course and support this channel.
