Above the clouds

Good evening!

Memories, postcards - you need them to evoke memories about your journeys. If you travel a lot, probably you have got a good camera, unless you use your smartphone to take photos or record movies. It`s nice to have them, and keep all data from every place you have been. But what if I tell you that you are able to take better photos or to make videos from places where nobody have ever been? I You can do it with UAV - unmanned aerial vehicle or simply called drone.

Maybe now you are thinking that I'm crazy because they are so expensive, but I can assure you that drones are 5 times cheaper and 5 times better than 5 years ago. For example a very good drone with 4K (very high resolution) camera costs in Poland about 2000 PLN (500 USD). Of course, it`s a lot of money, but it would be cheaper and cheaper in short future. I think that for taking photos and making videos in a quality as you can seen in the video at the bootom of this post, it`s definitely worth it.


The next question which is worth to think about is: "Am I able to fly drone?" Well...Of course you are - evolution of technology is so fast like it have never been before. Flying a drone is like playing a video game - when you push stick up drone moves up and when you push it down, drone falls back, simply. New drones are very stable - they keep horizontal and vertical position easily , even in strong wind, thanks to sets of sensors like visual positioning system, global positioning system, GLONASS and many others. 


They are able to flay away further than 1 km and higher than 500 meters. Don`t worry, you will not lost your drone - if connection would be lost, it will come back to a start point! Great, don`t you? One thing what could stop you is battery. Anyway, it`s pretty good because you are able to get up to 20 minutes flying time and of course he will back home or land automatically if the battery get low. There`s much more safety systems.

In my opinion, today is the best time we could have to get a drone, because we don`t need license to fly, which could be hard to get, I think. They are easy to fly and give a lot of fun and different points of view about the whole world around us. I really recommend you to buy one if you travel a lot or you are photo maniacs 😀
