FAQs

We understand that you will have lots of questions about our courses, so below are answers to the questions we are frequently asked. If you have other questions please get in contact with us via email on info@lydnow.com or call on +91 97631 63833

1. Where can I learn about drones?

Drones are one of the most fascinating developments in robotics and aviation. Depending on your interest you can start your journey by assembling a Drone of your choice and configuration and then develop it further for complex applications.
A good place to start, according to us, would be to assemble a simple multi-copter like a mini- racing drone. This is a relatively affordable entry into the drone world that gives you exposure to all important aspects of drone design.
Starting from the choice of drone frame type, to designing and 3D printing/buying the frame of your choice, choosing the motors and compatible rotors, choosing the flight controller and battery, etc and finally learning to fly your drone safely; these simple steps can get one started on their own.
Internet tutorials usually focus on bigger multi-copter drones made by drone enthusiasts and could be a more expensive starting point for beginners. You could also consider attending a practical foundation course on drones.

2. Is it cheaper to build or buy a drone?

Today, it's cheaper to buy a drone. However, it is difficult to add upgrades or modify your drone's performance with ready-made drones, so the long term costs of buying a cheap drone could be higher than just making your DIY drone.
Also, making your drone is highly likely to make you a lot more skilled and grow your know-how. Readymade off the shelf drones come with a lot of built in-flight stability and your job as a pilot is significantly reduced.
So if you are looking at just having a good time flying a drone, you could consider just buying an RTF(ready to fly) drone off the shelf.

3. Can a drone fly with 3 propellers?

Yes, under the multi-copter as well as fixed-wing categories, some drones fly on 3 propellers.
Tricopters are particularly difficult to achieve stability with, so if you are a beginner, its best advised to work alongside an experienced mentor while trying to put together your own.

4. How do you fly a mini drone for beginners?

Beginners are usually advised to start with more stable multi-copter drones like quadcopters or fixed-wing drones.
Its good to put together a mini drone your self to understand the fundamental forces that act upon and affect a drone's flight.

5. What is a good entry level drone?

The machine has many good entry-level drones, especially in the mini-drones category. Syma is another company that makes very affordable beginner level drones.
These drones are affordable and usually in the RTF(ready to fly) category. One must check the ease of availability of accessories of the drones of their choice before buying any off the shelf drone.
It is always best to assemble or make your first DIY drone instead of buying an RTF one.

6. How are drones used in today's society?

Drones are growing in their applications rapidly today. From their initial popular uses in photography, drones are now used for a variety of applications like rapid seed sowing, terrain mapping, pesticide sprinkling, military applications, public address systems, and more recently in delivery services.
In the future, the use of drones is likely to become widespread as drones now can take single flights for hundreds of kilometers to precise locations with great speeds.
With their growing capabilities drones also have increasingly raised security concerns and therefore the use of commercial drones also is likely to get highly regulated across the world.

7. How will I benefit from Lydnow's courses on Drones?

Lydnow's courses on Mini-Racing Drones and FPV drones are designed to be a comprehensive and easy practical entry for beginners into the world of drone making.
The courses provide the correct balance of essential know-how and practical experience in drone design. Students learn the fundamentals of drone frame designs, motors and propeller configuration choices, flight controllers and sensors, drone communication, power supply design, and drone flying.
Students create their drone designs and add a level of complexities and improve the performance of their drones along the way.
Lydnow's drone courses are designed to enable drone enthusiasts to pursue their interests by equipping them with the necessary skills and experience.

Testimonials

I really appreciate the insight and exposure that was provided in robotics by the Lydnow team. They were always there for us,24*7,helped us whenever needed & be creative in doing our projects. I think every moment spent at Lydnow was wonderful & in specific attending as a team to IIT Mumbai techfest was the best. I am proud to be a LYDNOWIAN & would be happy to join any workshop or attend any courses further. Thanks a lot, Arijit sir for being what you are. You are the best teacher I have come across. I am indebted to all the instructors & trainers who patiently taught me & helped me to build projects.

I am very satisfied with the quality of training at Lydnow Robotics. The way the kids are handled, boosts their imagination, logical thinking and confidence in them. Pratham has become more confident and has started thinking out of the box, always thinking of doing things differently and better. You guys are exceptionally great in training the kids. Hoping you keep doing the same magic with many more kids. All the best!
