Drone Types
A drone, or an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), are generally accepted to be any aerial vehicle that has no pilot on board. In the wave of technology and digital time, the drones born out of military use have gradually moved to the consumer market and have taken a firm foothold as quickly as it could.
With its unique aerial perspective and flight capabilities, UAV drone technology has been introduced into various fields, such as aerial photography, precision agriculture, security patrols, search and rescue, logistics transportation, geographic mapping, and more.
We'll explain the types and roles of the different drones here. All kinds of drones have created a competitive drone market. As a leading drone manufacturer, Autel Robotics will present the best drone sincerity to every drone enthusiast.

Camera Drone is dedicated to excellent aerial photography quality. A drone with a camera is a perfect combination of photography tools and flying technology, bringing people a perfect visual experience.

Mini drones are lightweight drones weighing no more than 250 grams (0.55 lbs). This type of drone does not require registration and is suitable for beginners to learn.

How to learn how to drive a drone for a novice drone, which type of drone is more suitable for a novice to choose, and the recommendation of a novice drone.

Unlike aerial photography drones, commercial drones target specific industry needs, requiring them to adapt to complex working environments and perform aerial operations.

Infrared thermal imaging drones refer to drones with infrared thermal imaging cameras. This type of drone can perform clear imaging at night and is used in a wide range of industries such as firefighting and construction.

Mapping is a very common commercial use of drones.Drones with RTK modules are specialists in this field, which can achieve centimeter-level positioning accuracy and generate high-precision maps of a large area.

Firefighting Drones can monitor fires in real time from the air, identify fire sources and fire intensity, and help fire rescue personnel determine the best rescue and disaster relief plan.

Using drones to conduct roof inspections is half the effort. Aerial drones can collect image data of the house, while thermal imaging drone roof inspections can capture potential risks, such as pipe leaks, wall damage, etc.

Night vision drones can fly stably and avoid obstacles at night. Autel night vision drone can be used for night inspection and night aerial photography. Starlight camera drones and thermal imaging camera drones are leaders in night vision drones.

Follow Me Drone allows drones to automatically track targets. When the follow mode is turned on, the drone will automatically identify the object being photographed, freeing your hands to follow and shoot.

The RTH drone has superior return-to-home technology. It will automatically return to the take-off point in the event of signal loss or low battery. Come here to learn more about the RTH drone.

Fixed-wing drones have the characteristics of long flight time and stable flight. Autel Dragonfish is the first tilt-rotor VTOL drone that can automatically switch between multi-rotor drones and fixed-wing drones.

GPS drones have accurate positioning systems. Drones with GPS can be used for navigation, hovering and RTH. GPS is very important for drones.
