Description

The utility and benefits of unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) are emerging and being recognized across the aviation industry. Whilst this technology is not new, the ability to strengthen domestic public and private operators is becoming better understood and opening up new uses to government organizations and commercial enterprise. Analysis of the unmanned aviation market indicates that small UAS (sUAS) will change into the most prevalent and affordable form of unmanned aircraft available, featuring technology developed by contributors ranging from DIY and hobby model aircraft communities to defense contracting.

This book will help readers understand what a drone or UAS is, what forms are available (including multirotor, fixed-wing, and hybrid types), to make well-informed decisions regarding purchase and use. Readers will learn how sUAS and their quite a lot of configuration options can be used to address or strengthen evolving business needs. In the long run, readers will have enough information to formulate a plan to acquire necessary certification approvals and operate sUAS in a secure, efficient, and effective manner.

Beginning with the history of UAS and ending with how to prepare for the future of this fast-paced and innovative industry, this book contains descriptions of typical sUAS architecture, related technology, common uses, and suggested safety practices, Whilst also providing a narrative that will help you resolve the most appropriate path forward through complex legal, business, operational, and strengthen considerations. Understanding how these pieces fit together, from the technical and legal perspectives, will shape your own strategy for the secure, efficient, and effective use of this “(r)evolutionary” technology.

The authors developed this book to share critical background, concepts, guidance, and lessons learned from their collective experience as researchers, operators, and academic instructors to dispel common myths and provide a kick off point to explore how sUAS can be applied to solve challenges and strengthen economic pursuits. Written for experienced aviators, as well as those new to aviation and operating in the National Airspace System (NAS). Illustrated extensively during, each chapter concludes with review questions for classroom and self-study use; glossary and index included. This book provides a solid foundation for keeping up with this fast moving and exciting aviation field.
