If you think you need a boarding pass to fly, you're really missing out! 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...Following from the worldwide success of the first edition, which has been translated into numerous languages, this edition is not just fully updated to keep pace with the laws and the technology (including gesture controls), it is also new enough to thoroughly cover the fast-growing new sport of FPV drone racing, while still including a comprehensive guide to learning to fly any drone."--provided by Amazon.com
