Everywhere you look there is another news story about drones. Now, Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University’s Worldwide Campus has released the first comprehensive consumer guide to buying and using small unmanned aircraft systems (sUAS or drones as they are better known). This new guide can be used by businesses or individual drone enthusiasts who want to learn more about the different types of sUAS that are available on the market and which ones will match up with the operator’s skill and experience. The guide also includes information regarding sUAS’s performance, quality of construction, ease of operation, cost, accuracy of advertised capacity and user support offerings. Right now, there are approximately 2.5 million sUAS platforms operating in the United States’ airspace, with over 7 million sUAS expected by 2020.
