While a quadcopter with a camera is not necessary, you may want to consider one if you're looking to capture first-person views and aerial photography. Although quadcopters can be fragile the propeller is usually the first thing to go. The chassis and arms may also be damaged by collisions. A quadcopter's price can be greatly affected by its camera features. You need to carefully choose the features you require. A camera drone is the best choice for those who want to see first-person views.
Low-cost quadcopters
DJI Phantom 4 Professional offers a more affordable option for a camera drone. This remote control drone features an HD camera and a triangular gimbal. It has a new gimbal dampener that records video in 4k resolution at 30 frames/second. Mavic Air can also record slow-motion videos. Both cameras feature a 12-megapixel CMOS Sensor and an equivalent of a 35 mm lens, an f/2.8 lens.
The DJI Spark, a small remote controlled drone, can take high quality pictures. You can fly the DJI Spark indoors or out, as it has been crash-guarded. Additionally, you can directly record video to an SD Card. The DJI Spark is also great for learning how to fly, and it is compatible with tablets and smartphones. The microphone allows audio to be recorded without the need of any receiver.
DJI Phantom 4.
The DJI Phantom 4 quadcopters have many advantages. For one, you can take advantage of mapping capabilities. This mapping solution is the RTK(EU) SDK. And if you want to make mapping work on your drones even better, you can use the Phantom 4 RTK (EU) SDK. The SDK is available for download and you can easily add mapping to your drones.
The drone's flight time is twenty-eight minutes. Although this is an impressive number for a quadcopter, you will probably only get 20-25 minutes out of the drone before it starts to die. However, you should make sure that the drone is fully charged before you return home in case there is a power cut. It will adjust its flight speed to avoid hitting buildings or people in high winds.

How To
Repairing a damaged motor on a drone
To repair a motor damaged, the first step is to identify which part is broken. This is easiest to do by removing the propeller from its shaft. Then you should remove any wires attached to the motor and look at the inner workings of the motor itself. If you spot something wrong, you can identify which part of the motor needs to be fixed.
If there is no damage to the motor, then you don't have to worry too much however if the motor looks like one of these images below, then you'll need to replace some components before you can fly again.
Imagine that the motor has become bent to the point it will not turn. The motor must be bent again. To hold the motor, use a vice grip or pair of pliers. After you've completed the above, ensure that you inspect the motor for signs and wear.
Once everything is fine, place the propeller onto the motor shaft. You are now ready for your drone to fly.
