5 Tips for Novice Drone Pilots



Did you just get a drone for Sinterklaas or for Christmas? You want to fly right away with your drone? Then read our handy tips before you fly!

The drone is a beautiful device that everyone can fly with, only if something goes wrong, many people do not know what to do. That is why we have put a number of tips on a list so that you learn to fly safely with your new drone.


Tip 1 Know your drone 

Do not fly before you have read the user manual. There are many useful tips in the manual, and what you have to do in certain situations. So what you have to take into account, but especially what your drone can and can not do, because your drone can not do everything.


Tip 2 Fly only in good weather

Actually this speaks for itself: do not fly in strong wind or in rain. Your drone is probably not waterproof, so rain does not go well with all the electronics in your drone! Fog also falls under humid conditions. Mist is a cloud and a cloud is full of water, you go flying in, then you run the risk that your drone gets wet and there is a tight seal in your drone. For that matter, flying in strong winds is also not advisable at the beginning, in your manual it is up to which wind speed your drone can still fly. Keep in mind the wind speed that you might keep the drone in the air, but that countries can become very difficult. During the landing you run the risk that the drone can fall over, which can quickly cost you a propeller or an engine.


Tip 3 Fly in safe environments

Do not find the danger, although a drone will not be able to damage it quickly, it can indirectly cause damage. A few points that you should stick to if you want to fly:

Tip 4 Do not trust 100% on your GPS

Almost every drone has the option to fly back to where it is taken, but the location must be correct. For example, if your location is set up in America, your drone will fly to America quietly and you will lose it. It can have many causes that your location is not correct, one of the most common is a fault in your GPS. This may be because, for example, there has been a zone explosion and your GPS has more trouble getting a good "GPS lock". If your GPS does not have a good "GPS Lock", the position can not be determined properly and it can therefore be that when your drone hits RTH (Return To Home) it does not fly back to you but flies to China!

Tip 5 Set your Return To Home (RTH) correctly

Following our fourth tip, adjust RTH correctly! Imagine you are flying and suddenly you lose connection with your drone because it has landed behind an object. At such a moment your drone automatically flies back to the point where you have allowed it to take off. However, the drone is not super smart and he can not see where he is flying. An example:
The return to home is set here at say 50 meters, but the object is 80 meters high, as you can see the drone flies against it. If the pilot had set his RTH to 100 meters, the drone would have gone up and flown over the object. A good tip: think what you want to do before you go into the air and adjust your RTH height accordingly!

By Robert Coleman When you think of rodents, there’s a high chance that you immediately think of rats, mice, squirrels, and other small creatures that scurry around their homes. While most people hate the thought of these rodents coming anywhere near their beloved houses, it’s safe to say that there is one rodent that is becoming more and more popular. As the largest rodent that this world has to offer, the capybara is around the same size as your average dog. So, why are so many people deciding to welcome this weird and wonderful animal into their homes as their latest pet?

By Jessica Miller Thanksgiving is an enjoyable time for us all, but less so for our pets. There are a few things we need to be mindful of while we’re enjoying the holiday, in order to keep our pets safe. A rabbit in the backyard might be far enough away from the celebrations to not care, but for your dogs, cats, and hamsters in the same room as you, Thanksgiving can be a potentially dangerous time of year. Think Food So many of our much-loved foods are actually toxic to our pets. Dropping some chocolates, onion, garlic, or other scraps may have fatal consequences for our furry friends who decide to pick it up off the floor. Too much of any human food can be dangerous for our pets. After all, we have human food and they have specialized pet food for a reason. Watch The Kids If you’ve got a family gathering going on, make sure children are supervised. Not only are they likely to feed your pet food that they really shouldn’t be having, but kids also have a tendency to play rough. If there
