Remote-control drones are increasingly popular among both adults and kids. They serve different purposes, from shooting aerial selfies to performing barrel rolls. From entry-level models to advanced quadcopters with Wi-Fi capabilities, there is a drone to fulfill the needs of any user.
From mini FPV drones to advanced quadcopters with multiple functionalities, there are endless models on the market. When choosing a drone, it's important to pay attention to the skill level required to fly it. Beginner-friendly models have intuitive controls, while the most advanced ones require experience. If you're buying a drone for your children, your best bet is choosing a sturdy, inexpensive model with propeller guards for extra safety. High-end drones tend to be remote-controlled, while many entry-level models work with your smartphone through a Wi-Fi or Bluetooth® connection. Some quadcopters also use a Wi-Fi connection to stream aerial videos in real-time. Others let you monitor the drone's battery status right from your smartphone. Many models come with dedicated apps that let you create a pre-programmed path for the drone using GPS.
There are four main types of remote control drones: multi-rotor drones, fixed-wing drones, fixed-wing hybrid VTOL and single-rotor helicopters. Multi-rotor drones are the most common among consumers. They're cheaper than the other types because they're easier to manufacture. Fixed-wing, single-rotor and fixed-wing hybrid VTOL drones are geared towards professionals and expert racers. Multi-rotor drones can have three, four, six or eight rotors. The models with four rotors, called quadcopters, are the most popular. These drones have limited battery life, which may be an issue for professional users. Most models can fly for 20 to 30 minutes before the battery dies.
Many hobbyists love to compete in first-person view (FPW) races. Ready-to-fly mini racing drones are a wise choice for beginners with a limited budget. Most of them come with video goggles that let the users control the vehicle from their own point of view. Racing drones are very lightweight to reach high speeds. There are also FPV drones with controllers similar to the ones of a console. Most models have a high-resolution camera, which provides an immersive FPW experience. The most advanced quadcopters also support VR, to make FPV races even more exciting. Foldable mini FPV drones are easy to carry around since you can fold them after you're finished flying. Racing quadcopters come in a variety of cool designs, so you'll be able to impress your competitors.
Most photography drones have CMOS sensors to improve the quality of your aerial selfies. The larger the CMOS sensors, the better the image quality in low-light environments. Many camera drones support 4K and the RAW/DNG formats, providing additional editing options for both photos and videos. Choose a drone with 4K capabilities for stunning aerial videos. For clear aerial shots, look for models with steady hovering and mounted gimbals, which produce stable footage without blurring.
