What You Need To Know Before Choosing a Quadcopter Drone

By Alex · On August 1, 2017

In case you’re thinking of getting a quadcopter such as the DJI Phantom, make sure to do your homework. The good news is, there are absolutely tons of sites devoted to everything a drone enthusiast would ever need to know.

These sites will give you guidance on which model is suitable for you and luckily quadcopter fanatics post on several review sites so you can gain first hand user feedback as well as access to excellent deals when choosing your very own personal Remote Control quadcopter. There is plenty of variety to choose from, for example options include the ‘Phantom 3‘ which features include live HD streaming to your mobile device or a ‘3DR Solo’ which allows the user to detatch the camera device for use on its own. Some companies even offer a custom experience by allowing the user to create a tailor-fit drone to meet your own demands. Seek out review sites that provide an educated yet unbiased selection for you to choose from in order to purchase with confidence.

You also need to consider drone availability when purchasing a remote control quadcopter. You’ll probably experience a crash to your own quadcopter especially if you’re just a rookie and therefore, it is crucial to understand whether the quadcopter style you purchased has lots of spare parts that are easily accessible on the market. Some repair works need a soldering kit so it is highly recommended you purchase one when you place your order.

As well as the numerous quadcopter Review sites out there you will also find tons of YouTube sites with actual drone footage and some really good committed Facebook pages which will be a great resource and allow you to connect with other drone users. Considering drones can be pretty pricey ranging from $55 to $4k doing an all-inclusive study is an absolute must.

It might be tempting to just rip open your drones packaging and take it for a spin the minute you get it but this would be a huge mistake especially for the first time user. Make sure to read the users manual thoroughly before you fly, that way you ensure a more confident and secure experience with sound knowledge of the drones functions and capabilities.

If your flying outside make sure to fly at eye level and maintain sunlight behind you at all times. The last thing you need is to become blinded by the sun and crash your drone.

All these precautions may seem like overkill but trust me, its definitely necessary. You will only need to do the boring stuff in the beginning and the rest of the time you will use enjoying you amazing new flying machine.

My mother tells me that I've been playing around with gadgets and technology since the tender age of two, so I decided to finally channel that passion into writing about drones, my latest obsession.
