How To
How to Fly Drones With Beginners
A drone is an unmanned aerial vehicle that can be remotely controlled and used for surveillance, aerial photography, film production, research, and other hobby purposes. The technology behind drones has been around since World War II. DJI's Phantom series quadcopters were first commercially available 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
-
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 of controllers: On/Off switches (like a radio) and joysticks.
-
Manual Control – This method lets users remotely control the drone by using a smartphone app. The app will give you instructions.
-
Autonomous Flight - This method involves leaving the piloting duties to the drone itself. It basically flies autonomously without any human intervention. A drone must have a builtin camera and sensors capable to capture images and other data.
-
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. After the preprogrammed route is complete, the drone will automatically land and return to its 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 - Pilots may wear goggles to shield themselves from flying debris.
-
Camera - Some drones are equipped with cameras allowing you to capture photos and videos from above.
-
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 last between 20 and 3 hours depending on how much power they have.
-
Range - Some drones can travel upto 30 miles depending on their models.
