December 6, 2016 Susquehanna Section Dinner/Presentation: Drones
Drones 101
Topic: Drones 101
Abstract
Small drones, which consist mostly of quad and hexacopters, are controversial and incredibly useful. They have developed rapidly, in the last 5 years, in terms of capability and safety. We will review their technology, capabilities, safety features, changing regulatory environment and their role in community service. A typical consumer drone will be used to demonstrate some features as time, space and weather permit.
