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.

Drones


Book Description

This book is an everything-included approach to understanding drones, creating an organization around using unmanned aircraft, and outlining the process of safety to protect that program. It is the first-of-a-kind safety-focused text book for unmanned aircraft operations, providing the reader with a required understanding of hazard identification, risk analysis, mitigation, and promotion. It enables the reader to speak the same language as any civil aviation authority, and gives them the toolset to create a safety risk management program for unmanned aircraft. The main items in this book break down into three categories. The first approach is understanding how the drone landscape has evolved over the last 40 years. From understanding the military components of UAS to the standards and regulations evolution, the reader garners a keen understanding of where we came from and why it matters for moving forward. The second approach is in understanding how safety risk management in aviation can be applied to drones, and how that fits into the regulatory and legislative environment internationally. Lastly, a brief synopsis of the community landscape for unmanned aircraft is outlined with interviews from important leaders and stakeholders in the marketplace. Drones fills a gap in resources within the unmanned aircraft world. It provides a robust understanding of drones, while giving the tools necessary to apply for a certificate of authorization, enabling more advanced flight operations for any company, and developing safety risk management tools for students and career professionals. It will be a mainstay in all safety program courses and will be a required tool for any and all individuals looking to operate safely and successfully in the United States.

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.
