How To

How to Fly Drones with Beginners

A drone can be used to fly remotely controlled aircraft for photography, surveillance, scientific research, hobby and commercial purposes. The technology behind drones has been around since World War II. DJI introduced their Phantom series of quadcopters in 2010, but commercial use only began in 2010. 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 methods to fly a Drone, including

1. Remote control - This method uses a control device attached to your hand, which enables you to steer the drone through its flight path. There are two main types, On/Off switches (like radios) and joysticks.
2. Manual Control- This allows you to control your drone remotely via GPS coordinates. Follow the instructions of the app to track the exact location you want the drone go.
3. Autonomous flight - The drone takes over the piloting duties. It's basically flying autonomously without any human intervention. For the autonomous flight to occur, the drone must have a built-in camera and sensors capable of capturing images and data.
4. Triggered Flying - This method works in the same way as manual control. However, the pilot has to manually set up a route for the drone and it follows that route until reaching the endpoint. After the program is complete, the drone automatically returns to the ground.
5. Landing Gear: Some drones have landing gear that allows them safely to land in case they lose power or run low on battery.
6. Goggles – Pilots often wear goggles while flying to keep themselves safe from any debris.
7. Camera - Some drones are equipped with cameras allowing you to capture photos and videos from above.
8. Obstacles: Some drones are equipped with obstacle avoidance systems to prevent them from hitting obstacles.
9. Speed - Some drones can travel at speeds over 40 mph.
10. Battery Life – Most drones will last 20 minutes to three hours depending on how powerful they are.
11. Some drones are capable of traveling up to 30 miles depending upon their make and model.
12. Power source – Some drones require external power sources, others require internal batteries.
13. Weight - Some drones are lighter than others, while some models can weigh as much as 4 pounds.
14. Size - Drones range from small devices that fit in one's palm to large crafts that weigh more than 50 pounds.
15. Price - Drones come in a variety of price categories, including high-end models which can run into the thousands and low-cost options that can start at $100.
