Drones – or more precisely multicopters – have opened a whole new way of model making. Highly developed control electronics, powerful electric motors and high-performance batteries make things possible that were still science fiction until recently. At the same time, completely new applications have emerged: Photo and film flights, automated flights and action-packed FPV races make these models interesting for technology enthusiasts.
Roland Büchi – a drone expert from the very beginning – provides all the information you need in this book if you want to get involved with multicopters. He offers beginners the information they need for a successful start and advanced pilots the basics for special missions. In short: Anyone who wants to fly drones successfully need this book!
