RE: DRONES... An Engineering Spectacle.
Drones have always been fascinating to me. I go to the extent of downloading diy videos hoping to build one for myself someday. Nice post bro. In the future, we cn start sending gift boxes and hand written letters to each other via drones lol... but when these things become more common, maybe there'll be avenues to charge them while on air or what happens to them when the battery suddenly runs down?
I saw life performance of a big drone few weeks ago. To answer your question, the drone flew back to its exact position when the battery was getting very low
Exactly.... It All boils down to the level of Sophistication of the drone
Oh... thats cool. That must be the "back to home" function the post mentioned. Thank you.
I can't agree more.... Infact the likes of Amazon are investing massively in drones to facilitate Easy delivery....
So the days of sending gift boxes with drones is closer than Ever
To answer your question about batteries @mykelade: it All depends on the Sophistication of the drone... Some drones have the "back to home" feature where the drone automatically returns to the user when the battery returns to a certain level
while others indicate low batteries to the user and the user manually flies the drone back to replace the battery
