How To
How to Fly Drones With Beginners
A drone refers to a remote-controlled aircraft designed for aerial photography, surveillance and scientific research. Drones have been in use since World War II. DJI's Phantom series of quadcopters was the first to be commercially used. From beginner-friendly drones such as Parrot AR Drone 2.0 through professional-grade multirotor craft like DJI Mavic Pro, many types have been available.
There are many options for flying a drone.
-
Remote control - This allows you to control the drone from your hand. There are two types of controllers available: joysticks and on/off switches.
-
Manual Control – This method lets users remotely control the drone by using a smartphone app. The app will give you instructions.
-
Autonomous Flight – This is when the drone handles all the piloting tasks. It basically flies autonomously without any human intervention. The drone must be equipped with a camera and sensors that can capture images and data in order to fly autonomously.
-
Triggered Flight: This is similar in concept to manual control. The pilot manually creates a route and the drone then follows it until it reaches that endpoint. Once the programmed route is completed, the drone lands automatically and returns back to the base.
-
Landing Gear- Some drones include landing gear that allows for safe landing if the power goes out or they run out of batteries.
-
Goggles - Some pilots wear goggles to protect themselves from debris while operating.
-
Camera – Some drones have cameras, which allow you to take photos or videos from up high.
-
Obstacles - Some drones can be equipped with obstacle avoidance systems that prevent them from crashing into obstacles.
-
Speed – Some drones can reach speeds in excess of 40 mph.
-
Battery Life: Most drones have a battery life of between 20 and 30 minutes depending on how many power sources you use.
-
Some drones have a range of up to 30 miles, depending on their model.
-
Power source: Some drones will require an external power source while others can be powered by internal batteries.
-
Weight – Some drones are less than one pound, while other models can be up to four pounds.
-
Size - Drones can range in size from tiny devices that can fit in your palm to heavy crafts that weigh 50 pounds.
