Hey, y’all, I want to help us to be on guard for Canada, and I was thinking I should learn how to fly drones.
I have started looking at schools and at the Transport Canada website. I’d like to hear from those who know more about drone flight schools and fly drones themselves.
I’ve never flown one myself, even if I do find them rather cool. I’m too old and creaky (and too averse to hierarchy) to join the military, but I can make myself useful in other ways.
Should I get a small drone (below 250 g) and practice?
Are there virtual tools I could practice with? I wouldn’t want to crash an expensive piece of gear while I’m learning to pilot it.
Please chime in with your advice.
I’ve always had an interest in photography, so that might be my entry point. As I said to Dearche in this thread, I just tried a drone racing game and that was fun. I’ll keep at it!
