A must have Drone book in your collection
Great book packed with some good advice, guidance and clear illustration. If you are totally new to UAVs then this book is for you and will provide an insight into the history of drones. It goes on to explain the detail around self build and ready to fly drones and talks about each part that makes up the craft, also give tips on camera settings and videography along with a detailed glossary of terms. Of course technology is moving at an incredible pace, that said this is a great book to have in your collection and get you started.

Superb book. Great content. Awful typos
Wow. Love it! Can I first start with the negative. Even though I have only scanned through the book over the course of half an hour, I spotted several spelling and grammatical mistakes. Things like Attitude instead of Altititude and It's instead of Its and words added by mistake. So shame on the proofreader who rather bizarrely is the authors dad. If you read the acknowledgements you'll see that the author rushed the writing of the book and was late submitting it. Not sure why we needed to know that nor about all the other folk who "rushed" their jobs. To quote! There are some poor typos and mistakes in this such as INSERT NEW LINE HERE etc. Anyway... Now with the positive. Even though I only scanned through the book, I have to say it is absolutely brilliant. The layout is great, easy to understand and easy on the eye. If you're an experienced drone flyer, this book is useless because you'll know it all... most probably. It is for people with a new interest in drones. In terms of content, it has everything you need to know about drones starting off with a little history lesson. There's chapters on the various components that make a drone which is very interesting as I am thinking of building one. Incidentally, at the back of the book is a very detailed yet easy to grasp tutorial on how to build a drone. There's a cut out template for you so you can cut the wooden frame to the right size. Can't wait to read this in detail. The components sections are easy to understand and interesting but of no use if you just want to be the person who flies drones and isn't interested in building one. There are tutorials on how to actually fly a drone. Flight basics, skills, exercises etc. I love the section on photo/video work too. Very detailed and well presented. The legal section is incorrect however. The legal height for flying in the UK is wrong/outdated and I suggest you look at the CAA guidelines on this rather than taking the word of the author, who in all fairness was probably describing the law as it was at the time of publication. I just know I'm going to love this book. You will too!
