Flying in urban areas

Posted by Nikita Makarov on April 22, 2013 at 9:36am

Hello everybody!

I'm thinking of building a small drone, and i've been wondering whether i should buy a fixed wing aircraft or some sort of helicopter, and whether it's possible to fly in urban areas. I have 2 streets around my house (which almost never have traffic at all), and a large back garden (around 1000 square meters, but surrounded by 2.5 meter hedges). Would it be possible to auto-land onto one of these areas?

Thank you very much,

 Nikita Makarov

    Well, you decide what you want.

    Remeber, planes require more and flat ground to land. As where helicopters and multi rotors can operate im much less area.

    I prefer multi rotors as i can hover, takes photos and video, spy on my neighbours daughter (JOKES)

    Basicly aerial photography

    Up to you ;)
