What is an amateur UAV or Drone?
An amateur Drone is also know as a Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). It's a radio controlled plane, multi rotor copter or scale helicopter which has the ability to fly autonomously, the autopilot allows this unmanned technology to fly while the pilot in control can observe the UAV's flight as it performs the predetermined mission flying to waypoints. The waypoints are programmed into the autopilot before takeoff or while in the air if you use a telemetry kit. The autopilots we sell are both open source from DIY Drones & closed source from Atto Pilot and DJI Wookong. The ArduPilot Mega & Olipan can be used for basic stabilisation or as a complex autopilot with 3D waypoint navigation supported through the use of a ground station. We sell both pre soldered ArduPilot Mega and self assembly ArduPilot Mega kits.
