Hi! We at Aeroscan.nl also facilitate power line inspection in The Netherlands besides real estate, it's a smaller market but with higher margins here.
We used to pitch our expensive long range UAV to do power line inspections but by the time we got to run our first pilots DJI had already launched an actual good professional drone (M300) that was more economical to run and by the time we started production DJI had launched a small drone that achieves effectively the same thing without heavy cameras (M30E).
Make sure you've got at least 2 years of runway, customer acquisition in this market can take years. I'd agree with crubier on focusing on either hardware or software but the reality is that the customers are going to want a full solution, so if you're not going to do something make sure you've got partners to do it with.
If you need a partner for Cloud based power line inspection we could be it. Our main focus is real estate but as I said we did land a big powerline job and our platform works fine for it (powerline inspection is actually a lot less demanding than real estate inspection believe it or not).
