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. Drones have been in use since World War II. However, commercial use began in 2010 when DJI released their Phantom series of quadcopters. 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: Joysticks (like a radio), and On/Off switches (like an alarm clock).
2. Manual Control - This method uses a smartphone app to remotely control the drone using GPS coordinates. You must keep track of the location where you want the drone to go and follow the instructions from the app.
3. Autonomous flight - The drone takes over the piloting duties. It's basically flying autonomously without any human intervention. To enable autonomous flight, the drone should have a built in camera and sensors capable recording images and data.
4. Triggered Flight - This method is similar to manual control, except the pilot manually sets up a preprogrammed route, and the drone follows that route until it reaches the endpoint. After the preprogrammed route is complete, the drone will automatically land and return to its base.
5. Landing Gear - Some drones come equipped with landing gear that allows them to land safely if they lose power or run out of battery during flight.
6. Goggles: Some pilots use goggles in order to protect themselves against debris when operating.
7. Camera - Certain drones come with cameras that allow you to take photos and videos from high above.
8. Obstacles-Some drones come with obstacle avoidance devices that keep them from hitting obstructions.
9. Speed – Some drones can reach speeds in excess of 40 mph.
10. Battery Life - Most drones can last between 20 minutes to 3 hours, depending on how much power you're using.
11. Range - Depending on the model, some drones can travel up to 30 miles away.
12. Power source: Some drones will require an external power source while others can be powered by internal batteries.
13. Weight - Some drones can be as light as 1 pound while others can reach 4 pounds.
14. Size - The size of drones varies from small, easily carried devices to more substantial crafts that weigh in excess of 50 pounds.
15. Price – All drones fall into a price category. These range from expensive models that cost thousands to affordable options that start at 100 dollars.
