These new drones will permit us to scan the water and assist native governments throughout Lengthy Island and New York Metropolis preserve native seashores secure for all.”
Welcome to drone day on the Adafruit weblog. Each Monday we ship the newest information, merchandise and extra from the Unmanned Aerial Autos (UAV), quadcopter and drone communities. Drones could be used for video & images (dronies), civil purposes, policing, farming, firefighting, navy and non-military safety work, resembling surveillance of pipelines. Earlier posts could be discovered by way of the #drone tag and our drone / UAV classes.
