About Me:

FlightBots was founded in the UK in 2013 by friends James and Jonathan. Their idea was to help promote the world of Friendly Drones and the growing positive applications that they can provide. FlightBots provides the latest news, stories and original content on Drones for Good on multiple social media sites, such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. In June 2014, FlightBots released the world's first book to cover the beneficial uses of personal, civil and commercial drones: 'The Amazing Potential of Friendly Drones'. E-Book available here: http://flightbots.com/drone-store/ebook On-line Friendly Drones magazine http://www.friendlydrones.info/


Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest

We are passionate about Drones For Good, and their ability to have a beneficial impact on the world
