How To

How To Fly Drones For Beginners

A drone is a remote-controlled aircraft used for aerial photography, cinematography, surveillance, scientific research, and hobby purposes. Drone technology has existed since World War II. DJI's Phantom series of quadcopters was the first to be commercially used. There have been many drones made since then. These range from beginner-friendly drones like Parrot AR Drone 2.0 to more advanced multi-rotor craft like DJI Mavic Pro.

There are many ways to fly a drone.

  1. Remote control – This technique uses a control device attached directly to your hands that allows you steer the drone around its flight path. There are two main types, On/Off switches (like radios) and joysticks.
  2. Manual Control – This allows remote operation of the drone via GPS coordinates using a smartphone application. You must keep track of the location where you want the drone to go and follow the instructions from the app.
  3. Autonomous Flight: This means that the drone will take care of all the piloting. It's basically flying autonomously without any human intervention. A drone must have a builtin camera and sensors capable to capture images and other data.
  4. 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 has been completed, the drone returns to the base automatically.
  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 may wear goggles to shield themselves from flying 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. Range - Some drones can travel upto 30 miles depending on their models.
  12. Power source - Not all drones can use an external power source. Others can run on internal batteries.
  13. Weight – Some drones are less than one pound, while other models can be up to four pounds.
  14. Size - Drones can range in size from tiny devices that can fit in your palm to heavy crafts that weigh 50 pounds.
  15. Price - All drones fall within a specific price range, from high-end models that can cost thousands of dollars to lower-cost options starting at $100.
