FAQ

Is it possible to fly my drone in my backyard?

Yes! These are called UAVs (unmanned aircraft vehicles). There are many different types of drones that you can buy today, including small quadcopters as well as large fixed-wing aircraft. The FAA recently published new rules on commercial UAV usage, which allows you to legally fly them for commercial purposes. However, be aware that flying a UAV near airports may cause interference with air traffic control systems, and you must obtain permission from local authorities before operating one.


What is the difference of a quadcopter and an hexacopter, you ask?

A quadcopter can be described as a quadrotor helicopter with four rotors. It flies the same way as a traditional helicopter. It has four rotating rotors. The hexacopter looks similar to a quadcopter, but it has six rotors rather than four. Hexacopters are more stable and maneuverable than quadcopters.

How To

What is a "Battery Pack" and how can it be replaced?

Your drone's main power source is the battery pack. These packs provide enough power to keep your quadcopter in flight safely and smoothly.

You won't notice any differences between the battery packs in a new drone and the one you have before. Over time, however, your battery pack may start to wear down. Eventually, it might stop working altogether. To ensure your drone continues to operate properly, you'll have to replace its battery pack.

It is best to replace a battery pack with the original part. Otherwise, you risk damaging your drone by installing a faulty battery pack.

Follow these steps to replace a battery.

  1. Disconnect the battery connector cable. This will ensure that your drone does not receive any current. You can remove the battery connector from the drone by pulling it out.
  2. Unscrew the battery pack. Unscrew the battery pack from the bottom of your quadcopter. The battery pack is usually split into two pieces.
  3. Locate the battery contacts. After you have taken the battery pack out, look for the contact points. These tiny metal pins are what connect the battery to other components within the drone.
  4. Install the battery. Next, insert the new battery into your drone. Align the connectors for the battery pack on each side. Then, push the battery pack onto the drone. Once the battery is in place, tighten all bolts.
  5. Connect the battery connector cable again. After installing the new batteries, connect the battery connector to the drone.
  6. Test the drone. Before flying your drone again, check whether it still operates correctly. Congratulations if it works!
