The Complete Guide to Drones: (This is a book, NOT a drone) (Colouring for Mindfulness)

Product Description

Today, drones are everywhere. From film studios to farms, they’re in the hands of photographers, commercial surveyors and racers alike.

This fully illustrated book explains how drones developed, where they’re going and which one you should choose.

It even includes complete instructions to build both a simple drone and a super-fast FPV racer yourself.

Whether you’re flying indoors or out, buying or building, this book covers everything:

¦ Understand the Jargon Flying has a lot of unfamiliar terminology, but this book will make it easy to master.

¦ Business or Pleasure Every type of multicopter you might want is introduced, including explanations of which is best suited for what role.

¦ Get the Best Pictures This edition includes an extended guide to the tech and composition tricks you can use to make your pictures stand out of the pack.

¦ Get the Best Video A new shot-guide shows you how to get the most engaging aerial video, whatever your drone.

¦ Be a Winning FPV Racer There are two complete step-by-step instructions for building your own drones inside: an FPV racer, or a surprisingly cheap wooden drone – both great projects.

Following the worldwide success of the first edition, which has been translated into numerous languages, this second edition is not only fully updated to keep pace with the laws and technology, but also extended to thoroughly cover the fast-growing new sport of FPV drone racing, while still including a comprehensive guide to learning to fly any drone.

Take to the skies and become a skilled pilot, whatever your budget.

The only thing growing faster than the drone market is the amount of misinformation about them. Almost overnight popular drones like the instantly reconginsable DJI Phantom have created a billion-dollar industry, with a foothold in everything from movie-making to the toy market.

This book shows you everything there is to know about drones/multicopters/UAVs (including what really is the correct term for them) in plain, jargon-free English.

Find out how to:
· Choose the right drone for you
· Build them
· Fly them
· Capture amazing photos and videos from above

The text is accompanied with clear illustrations and brand-new photography.

Also included is a complete step-by-step project to build your own modestly-priced drone – great as a first step into the world of drones; fun for one, perfect as an educational project for parent and child.

In addition there is a layman’s guide to the crucial legal issues around drone flying, and there is an accompanying website with video clips and commmunity links.

This book is all you need to take to the skies!

Drones are everywhere at the moment, but should you buy one or build one? How do you go about flying them, and where can you do so legally? Here’s the guide that tells all.
