The main points of purchase: pick out the most suitable air partner for you

A clear purpose of use

If it is simply for entertainment and recording daily life, then a consumer-grade drone with high-definition camera function and convenient operation can be used. For example, if portability is important, you can choose a product with a folding design, which is convenient to take out and shoot at any time.

If you are interested in professional fields, such as agricultural plant protection and electric power inspection, you must choose drones with professional performance, such as those with long range, heavy load and intelligent operation mode, to adapt to complex working environment and task requirements.

Focus on key performance parameters

Endurance: It directly determines how long the drone can last in one flight, which is related to the operational efficiency. General consumer drones last about 20-30 minutes, while professional drones can last more than 1 hour by optimizing their batteries and power systems. When purchasing, it is necessary to combine the actual use scenarios to avoid the power shortage during the flight.

Flight stability: It depends on the quality of the flight control system. A good flight control can automatically adjust the flight attitude and resist airflow interference. Novices should give priority to drones equipped with advanced three-axis or six-axis gyro stabilization systems to ensure smooth flight and reduce the risk of losing control.

Distance and clarity of image transmission: for beginners who like aerial photography, clear and long-distance image transmission is very important. The image transmission distance of high-quality drones can reach several kilometers, and high-definition real-time images can make you control as if you were there, without missing any beautiful scenery.

Selecting an adaptive drone remote controller

Control feel: Comfortable control handle design, ergonomic, can make your fingers still flexible after long-term operation. The key layout should be simple and clear, so as to facilitate the quick operation of various functions, such as one-button take-off, landing and return flight.

Signal stability: Strong and stable signal transmission can ensure that the remote control drone can receive instructions accurately during long-distance flight. Some high-end remote controllers adopt dual-band switching technology of 2.4GHz and 5.8GHz to effectively avoid signal interference and ensure smooth control.

Function expansibility:The drone remote controller with additional function expansion interface is convenient for subsequent upgrade, such as connecting the mobile APP to realize more intelligent control, viewing flight parameters, planning flight routes, etc., so as to enrich the flight experience.

Essential drone accessories: escort for drones

Batteries and chargers

According to an article about drone batteries, we know how to choose the necessary remote control drone battery. High-quality batteries can provide longer battery life, and we should pay attention to the battery’s charge and discharge times. Choosing an appropriate charger, the fast charging function can reduce the waiting time, but we should also pay attention to the charging safety to avoid the danger caused by overcharging.

Propeller and protective cover

The spare propeller is essential, and it is inevitable that the blade will be damaged due to collision in flight. The protective cover can reduce the risk of fuselage damage caused by misoperation during novice practice, especially when flying indoors or in an environment with many obstacles, adding an extra layer of protection for the drone.

Storage bags

It is convenient to travel with drones and accessories, and protect the equipment from bumps and scratches. A well-designed storage bag has a special compartment inside to store drones, remote controllers, batteries, etc., so that your equipment is in good order.

Regulations and Safety: Guidelines for Protecting the Blue Sky

Understand the flight laws and regulations

Remote control drone flight regulations are different in different regions and different scenarios. It is forbidden to fly in urban no-fly zones, such as around airports and military administrative zones; In some public places, you need to apply for permission in advance before flying. Novices must be familiar with local laws and regulations, avoid legal risks caused by violations, and ensure that flights are legal and compliant.

Pre-flight safety inspection

Before each flight, carefully check whether all parts of the drone are normal, including battery power, propeller integrity, signal connection, etc. Carry out flight test in an open place far away from people and buildings to ensure the safety of the surrounding environment and prevent accidents.

The first flight preparation: a key step towards the blue sky

Site selection

Open, flat, obstacle-free and away from crowded areas are the first choice, such as open grass in the suburbs and large parking lots. This will not only ensure that the remote control drone has enough space to display, but also reduce the risk of personnel and property losses caused by operational errors.

Equipment debugging

Connect the remote control drone with the remote controller to ensure the successful signal pairing, and calibrate the sensors such as compass and gyroscope according to the instructions, so that the remote control drone can accurately perceive its attitude and direction.

Check the image transmission system to ensure that the mobile phone or display screen can clearly receive the images transmitted by the drone in real-time, and adjust the parameters such as brightness and contrast to provide accurate visual feedback for flight.

The first flight operation: the skill of controlling the air

Take-off and hovering

Put the drone at the takeoff point smoothly, hold the remote control with both hands, and press the one-button takeoff button, and the drone will slowly lift off. At this time, it is necessary to pay close attention to the attitude of the drone. If there is tilt instability, fine-tune it through the remote control to keep it hovering horizontally.

For the first flight, it is recommended to control the altitude at about 2-3 meters, be familiar with the control feel, feel the response speed of the drone to the command, and don’t rush to rise or travel far.

Basic flight control

Move back and forth, left and right: push the rocker in the corresponding direction of the remote control, operate slowly, understand the movement law of the drone, pay attention to control the speed, and avoid sudden acceleration leading to out of control.

Steering control: Turn the steering rocker on the remote control to realize the clockwise or counterclockwise steering of the drone, and operate gently to observe whether the steering angle of the drone meets the expectation.

Landing operation

At the end of the flight, when preparing to land, first reduce the height of the drone to about 1 meter, slowly approach the landing point, and then press the one-button landing button to let the drone land smoothly. After landing, turn off the power in time and tidy up the equipment.

Advanced skills: a coup to enhance the flight experience

Route planning

By utilizing the route planning function provided by mobile apps or drones, pre-set flight routes and shooting points can be set in advance, allowing the drone to automatically fly along a preset trajectory and capture more creative images, especially suitable for capturing large landscapes or conducting large-scale agricultural inspections.

Intelligent flight mode

Some remote control drones have intelligent functions such as following mode and surrounding mode. In the following mode, the drone can automatically follow the target movement; Surround mode can hover around the designated object, adding more interest to aerial photography, and novices can try to use it after mastering basic manipulation.

Troubleshooting: dealing with the incident in flight

Signal loss

Don’t panic if the signal is lost in flight. Most remote control drones will automatically start the return function after losing contact. If they don’t return, first ensure that the battery of the remote controller is fully charged and try to reconnect the signal. If it still doesn’t work, record the location of the lost link and go to find it. At the same time, pay attention to local laws and regulations to avoid illegally entering the no-fly zone to find it.

Flight instability

Check whether the propeller is damaged and installed correctly, and recalibrate the sensors of the flight control system. If the problem remains, consider whether there is strong wind interference and land in time to adjust the flight site.

Conclusion: Enjoy the infinite possibilities of drones.

From the ignorance of first contact with drones to the whole process of purchasing, preparing and flying, you have stepped into this magical field.
