FAQ
You can fly a drone as high as you like without a license.
The FAA has no limits on the maximum height a drone can fly. You will need to register your unmanned aircraft system (UAS), including the registration number and model name, weight, dimensions, serial number, manufacturer's number, date manufactured, and any other information.
Can I fly my drone around my area?
Yes! These are known as UAVs (unmanned air vehicles). There are many types of drones on the market today, including small quadcopters and large fixed-wing aircraft. The FAA recently released new rules for commercial UAV use, meaning that they are now legal to fly for business purposes. You should be aware, however, that UAVs flying near airports can cause interference with air traffic control systems. To operate one, you will need to obtain permission from the local authorities.
What is the best drone to buy for beginners?
The DJI Phantom 2 Vision+ beginner drone is very popular today. The 4K camera on this model allows you to take stunning aerial photos and videos. You can easily navigate this drone using its built-in GPS system.
Is it illegal to fly a drone?
Flying drones is an offense in certain countries, including Australia, Canada, Germany and Japan. It is legal in some other countries, such as France and Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, Russia or Switzerland, Turkey, Ukraine, and Vietnam.
Where Are Drones Banned?
The FAA has prohibited drones from flying close to airports or stadiums, sporting events and nuclear power plants. However, they do allow them to fly at night using GPS technology.
What is the main difference between a quadcopter or a helicopter?
A quadcopter, a four-rotor helicopter, flies just like a helicopter. It has four rotors that rotate independently. The hexacopter can be described as a quadcopter but has six rotors, instead of the usual four. Hexacopters can be more stable and maneuverable that quadcopters.

How To
Repairing A Damaged Motor Of A Drone
It is important to first identify which motor part is damaged before you can repair it. The best way to do so is to take the propeller off the motor shaft. Then, you need to remove any wires connected to the motor and inspect its inner workings. If you spot something wrong, you can identify which part of the motor needs to be fixed.
If there are no damages to the motor you don't have too much to worry about. However, if your motor looks anything like these images, then you will need some parts replaced before you can fly.
Imagine that the motor has become bent to the point it will not turn. You will need to bend it back into shape. You could use a vice grip or a pair of pliers to hold the motor while bending it back into shape. After you're done, check your motor for signs of wear.
Once everything is in order, attach the propeller to the motor shaft. You are now ready for your drone to fly.
