Publisher's Synopsis
"Getting Started with Drones and Model Airplanes has been written for the beginning pilot, who wants to understand how these marvelous machines work and how to fly them safely. Buying a drone or a model airplane is really just the beginning of the journey: You must register your aircraft with the Federal Aviation Administration, complete a testing and certification process and then figure out how to safely operate your machine in (or to avoid) the busiest and most complex airspace in the entire world. It can be all be a little overwhelming for a beginner, but luckily you've got an expert co-pilot to guide you every step of the way: Patrick Sherman is an award-winning instructor at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University who has been flying and teaching people about drones for more than 10 years. In this book, he takes complex subjects and explains them in simple language with pictures and diagrams to make these concepts easy to understand.
