Features and selection criteria for quadcopters

Many buyers find it difficult to immediately understand the technical characteristics of quadcopters, focusing only on their appearance and brand popularity. In situations where it is difficult to understand which drone to buy, you should contact our qualified specialists for advice.

It matters a lot what purpose you're choosing a quadcopter for and whether you've flown a similar aircraft before. Most often, drones are bought for pilot training and aerial photography. Copters have become a necessity for the military.

Each drone has a specific set of technical features that determine how easy it is to control. Before ordering this device, pay attention to the following parameters:

• type of engine (collector or non-collector);
• autonomy (flight time with one full battery charge);
• maximum speed;
• flight range;
• weight and dimensions.

Budget models are usually equipped with simple and inexpensive brush motors that are designed for short flight times and distances.

Collectorless options are more reliable and productive. They are worth looking at if you want to choose a model with a long range that can stay in the air for a long time.

Many useful features and modes allow you to use the device with comfort. To help you better understand how to choose a drone and which model is right for you, below is a list of functions and modes that the drone can support:

• FPV mode - broadcasting an image from the first person;
• returning to the starting point or to the owner on command in automatic mode (you need to select the option with a GPS module);
• altitude holding function thanks to the barometer;
• automatic takeoffs and landings;
• optical positioning with a lower camera (allows the quadcopter to navigate in space);
• tracking mode - just select an object and the drone will follow it;
• flying along a certain trajectory (the points must be set in the application on a smartphone or tablet);
• Point of Interest Flying mode - you can command the drone to fly around an object in a circle, thus capturing it from all sides;
• obstacle avoidance function to avoid collisions (a new feature that is actively used in devices of different price segments).

If you take these recommendations into account, you can easily figure out which quadcopter to choose and be satisfied with your purchase.

Features of drones from the manufacturer DJI

When choosing drones, you should pay attention to the devices produced by DJI. This manufacturer specializes in the production of multifunctional, highly reliable devices.

DJI copters are modernized and high-tech devices that feature an intelligent flight mode. Sophisticated settings allow you to get accurate, high-quality photos and videos.

DJI drones are quite compact in size. In peacetime, they are actively used to protect the territory of households or businesses, carry out hunting activities and observe wildlife (photo hunting).

The devices are also characterized by high power and a wide range of functions. It is worth paying attention to the upgraded DJI Mavic 3T model. Thanks to the presence of a high-quality camera with parameters, this drone is ideal for shooting in different conditions. The photo resolution is 8000x6000. The device records video in a format that affects the quality of the image transmitted to the screen:

• FHD resolution is 1920×1080;
• 5,1К - 5120×2700; 
• 4K - 4096×2160 and 3840×2160.

In addition, the Mavic 3T is equipped with an upgraded focus, which provides unparalleled clarity. This model allows you to shoot high-quality videos. Using the zoom-in and zoom-out function, you can get as close as possible to the object of interest without losing image quality.

How to choose quality quadcopters

DJI drones are actively used under martial law. All models are equipped with the "Follow Me" function, which can be activated without stopping taking pictures.

To find the perfect device, you should pay attention to the following criteria:

1. Shooting quality. The minimum requirements include video recording in Full HD1080p format and a frame rate of 30 FPS. However, if necessary, you can choose a DJI drone with better specifications, such as the Matrice 30 Enterprise. This device shoots video in 5.1K. The resolution is 5120x2700 with a frame rate of 24 to 50 frames per second.
2. Flight time with a full battery charge. To meet minimum requirements, the flight time should be at least half an hour. Otherwise, the charge may not be enough to complete the task. DJI produces drones with a flight time of more than 30 minutes. For example, the Mavic 3 Fly More Combo model operates on a single charge for up to 46 minutes in continuous operation.
3. Support for the image stabilization option. Both optical and digital image stability are important. This function allows the drone owner to get an accurate picture, regardless of the type of shooting - the photo will be clear, and the video will be of high quality and continuous.
4. Availability of the "Follow me" option and additional options. For example, the DJI Mavic 3 Classic RC-N1 Remote model is equipped with a remote control that allows you to raise the copter to a maximum altitude of 6000 meters.
5. Weight. To ensure that the flight process meets all the needs of the drone owner, the weight of the device must be taken into account. Lightweight devices lack clear stabilization. DJI quadcopters have the perfect weight. For example, the Mavic 3 Classic with RC Remote weighs 895 g, which provides good stability during operation.
6. Price. Choose an option based on your budget. But it is worth remembering that an expensive device has improved characteristics and a large number of available options.

It should be understood that the flight process will be accompanied by quite a lot of noise. This is a disadvantage of the device for those at the front, as noise can attract unwanted attention.

Basic rules for using a drone

A quadcopter is a device that is capable of taking off and landing vertically and controlling its flight in the air using four engines and propellers. It can be used for a variety of tasks, including videography, aerial photography, technical research, and military missions.

For efficient operation, you need to familiarize yourself with the settings and control features. 

Quadcopters are made in different types and models, from simple toy ones to professional ones with advanced features. In order not to make the wrong choice, before buying such an aircraft, you need to understand its capabilities and what it is intended for.

Give preference to reliable manufacturers with a good reputation and positive customer feedback, such as DJI.

Rules for servicing a quadcopter

Proper maintenance of the copter helps to extend the service life of the device and keep it working for many years.

The first step is to check it regularly. Periodically inspect the device for damage or wear and tear. Check the operation of the motors, camera, and other components.

After each use, clean the body and parts from dust, dirt, and other contaminants. Use a soft brush or cloth to remove dirt.

Update your copter software regularly to improve performance and access new features.

The cost of popular quadcopters

It is worth mentioning another important nuance: the cost of a quadcopter. Many buyers are interested in how to choose a drone for high-quality aerial photography, given a limited budget.

A special point in the question of which quadcopter to buy inexpensively has always been the camera and its shooting capabilities. Today, a wide range of drones on the market allows you to choose a camera option at a fairly cheap price, but the quality of photos and videos will be entry-level, respectively.

You can choose a device with which you can take high-quality pictures, but the cost of such a drone starts at 20 thousand hryvnias and above.

As a rule, the more expensive the device, the better and more stable it is. By choosing one of these popular models, you will have access to many intelligent modes.
