Drone Flying Made Simple: Fly Legal, Fly Well, Film Beautifully

Fly Legal, Fly Well, Film Beautifully

by Kimani Upshur, M.Ed.

Fly legal, fly well, film beautifully. This complete beginner's guide starts where it must — FAA rules made simple — then teaches choosing your first drone, your first flight, camera skills for shooting from the sky, flight modes, batteries and maintenance, reading weather and airspace, and troubleshooting. It finishes with editing your footage into film and the Part 107 path for flying for work. Read the law chapter before your first flight; when the book and the FAA disagree, the FAA wins.
