How to choose the drone remote controller ?

To fly the drone, you must choose the right remote control. But how to choose the drone remote control? Today we will introduce you to different remote controls and teach you to buy the right remote control.

 
The drone's remote control can be divided into three categories: mobile phone / tablet remote control, traditional remote control, and new remote control such as watch, bracelet and voice control.

1. Mobile / tablet remote control:

In pursuit of a better operating experience, more and more pilots currently choose mobile phones or tablet remote controls to operate drones. Compared with traditional remote control, mobile phone / tablet remote control is smaller and lighter, because it is easier to fly; but mobile phone / tablet remote control also has some shortcomings, such as the signal is very unstable, long-distance flight is easy to lose the signal (generally 50- You will lose the signal at about 100 meters), which will affect the flying experience.

2.Traditional remote control operation

 Compared to the tablet remote control, most pilots still choose the traditional remote control. Although the remote control is relatively bulky, it is not easy to operate, and it is more difficult to get started, but its signal stability is far better than that of mobile phones / tablets, and the remote control distance is longer (Generally the remote control range is 100 meters or more). The traditional remote control is more difficult for beginners and more difficult to learn, but it will be easier to perform complex and precise flight movements after being skilled.

 3.New remote control for watches, bracelets, voice control, etc.

 In recent years, drone manufacturers have developed new remote control tools such as watches, bracelets, and voice controls in order to free up the hands of drone operators. They have eliminated basic attitude control such as forward and backward, and will simplify the following. One-button control is designed on the watch and voice, and an obstacle avoidance system is added to ensure the safety of the aircraft and users. Because of its novel and convenient operation, it is sought after by more and more people, but these new technologies are not yet mature enough. Beginners should avoid this remote control tool as much as possible.

Remote controller for  drone is an unmanned battery powered flying device, which is controlled by an operator on the ground. Often they are fitted with cameras to record images and video of the flight. the controller  receive data from the flight controller, and the electronic speed controllers (ESC) on the drone motor direction to either hover or fly. A radio Remote controller system is made up of two elements, the transmitter you hold in your hands and the receiver you put inside your drone. Dramatically simplifying things here, your drone transmitter will read your stick inputs and send them through the air to your receiver in near real time. Once the receiver has this information it passes it on to your drones flight controller which makes the drone move accordingly. A radio will have four separate channels for each direction on the sticks along with some extra ones for any auxiliary switches it may have.

An unmanned aerial vehicle system has two parts, the drone itself and the control system. The nose of the unmanned aerial vehicle is where all the sensors and navigational systems are present. The rest of the body is full of drone technology systems since there is no need for space to accommodate humans. The engineering materials used to build the drone are highly complex composites designed to absorb vibrations, which decrease the noise produced. These materials are very light weight.
