As long as I can remember, sci-fi movies have helped us dream of tech we hoped we would one day actually have in reality. Many of those dreams have become realities, including drones/dwarves. Like most my fiance and I had our curiosities. One day at a local store we happened upon a mini drone in the clearance bin for only $5! At that price who could resist? So of course we bought it and quickly dove into the rabbit hole.
The mini was the ideal first drone for people like us who might have had a lifetime of video game experience but no experience flying anything like a drone before. Since it was tiny, about 2" x 2", with propeller blades only about 3/4" across, we were able to try it out indoors carefully to get a feel for things. It was good to get a feel for how much delay time there was as well as how much wind can affect your flying. Most of all it was helpful to familiarize with reacting properly when something unexpected happens. We encountered a number of panic moments in the early days when we thought we lost a drone for sure from wrecking or hitting a big gust of wind without knowing how to react to prevent such a thing. More important was what we have learned about how to handle the situation if the worst DID happen. Our hope is to share some of these tips and tricks we learn to help others as we have been helped.
So we look forward to exploring drones with you and Thank You for joining us. Please follow us as we delve into all things drones.
