3DR Solo 2.0 Created by the technological wizards at 3D Robotics, the 3DR Solo 2.0 is billed as "the drone with a brain." Oddly enough, the drone does not come with a camera or a gimbal system out of the box; instead, you have to buy both separately. The good news is that the 3-axis gimbal supports any GoPro 4 camera, making for some fantastic customization options. Amazon has the 3DR Solo 2.0 for sale at $559, $599 if you would like the gimbal included. 3D Robotics, meanwhile, offers the drone for $799.95 by itself, $999.95 if you would like the gimbal with it. We think it 's pretty obvious which one is the better deal. One specification we immediately noticed that DJI 's drones lacked was how much the drone could carry. The Solo can handle payloads of up to 800 grams, which is a little over 1.5 lbs. However, this cuts its top speed from 20 miles per hour to 15 miles per hour. Another interesting feature lies in…

The act of composing drone music gained popularity in the 1960s as minimalism was starting to come on to the scene. A true definition of drone music describes music that contains a series of sustained, repeated or pulsating tones that slowly change over the course of a composition. Drone music was typically confined to the realm of rock and popular music, but some classical composers, such as John Cage, also embraced the new musical style and made a few attempts to create drone music. Drone…

However as years have gone by the word has evolved and its meaning has expounded to in cooperate more features ("Humanitarian Uses Of Drones And Satellite Imagery Analysis: The Promises And Perils" 2015). Presently the word refers to any robot that is either preprogrammed or controlled. Drones are classified into many different categories however,…
There should be a law where the government is allowed to take away the drone owner's drone, if any drone laws are broken beyond extent. For example, if someone were to fly a drone and peep at people in a bad way, the drone could be taken away for 6 months. In Kansas there’s a law called SB 319 which was made to expand the definition of harassment in the Protection from Stalking Act to include certain uses of UAS (NCSL). This idea of taking away the drone for misuse is beneficial because owners…
Existing regulations for drones: Until recently drone that were sold to consumers were not regulated (Pomerleau, 2015). What that means is that the FAA had not released any information on how the use of a drone, by a member of the general public could be used, what the general public shouldn’t be used for, and also what the punishments would be should a consumer choose not to follow regulations (Pomerleau, 2015). As of February 2015, the FAA has release some oversight guidelines on how…
