The shorter a drone's propellers, the less efficient they are at keeping it airborne. That factor, along with compact, low-capacity batteries, is the reason that small drones can't fly for very long.
Drone builders have challenges they face with each new design. If the drones are too big, they can't fit into tight spaces where they need to operate. If the drones are too small, they can't carry the ...
Over the past few years, labels such as DJI have pushed drones into the mainstream. If you look closely, you'll notice that a majority of them have four propellers, while helicopters have fewer of ...
