Field Guide to Drone Safety


Book Description

Did you recently get a drone or thinking of getting one? Don't take off without knowing the key Drone Safety checklists. These go well beyond the "400 feet" rule, and have pre-flight steps that you and anyone flying a drone near you should take into account before taking to the air. Whether you are novice Droner, or an experienced Fixed-Wing model aircraft flyer, a parent or guardian, you should know this stuff. The author is a Droner who has crashed many a drone, learned from these, from other sage counsel, from industry sites, manufacturers sites, the FAA, industry groups and seasoned local flying club members. None of them quite gets at the mental preparedness as well as the technical preparedness to launch these flying rocks we call "drones" over the heads of loved ones and innocents alike. :)




Drone Safety Field Guide


Book Description

Take this field guide with you when flying a drone or give it to someone you love. Drones, quadcopters, hexacopters, octocopters are fun to play with like guns are fun to play with. They are fast, new to us, use strong electricity, fight winds and novice hands, and have sharp propellers going at 10,000 rpm. Because so "many" mistakes can, "and will" happen anyway, it is best to be prepared ahead of time. Use the checklists contained in the book and let a safety mindset become second nature. Get to the point where it is automatic, like putting a baby in a secure carseat. The book tries to not be patronizing or condescending as almost all rule-books tend to be. If it seems to overly shake its finger at you, it is to save yours. Some safety guidelines come from sources such as my local flying club, the FAA, industry groups, manufacturers, other government bodies and flying club published materials. Others are not to be found written anywhere else. These are perhaps the most valuable because they came from fatherly advice given to the author and from his own experience. I hope all readers will gain more enjoyment and less problematic experiences, and share other ideas with the author via the website DroneSafetyFieldGuide.com or email to [email protected] Sharply discounted copies are available for people teaching classes or instruction sessions regarding drones when ordered in lots of 20.
