1. Mobile phone/tablet remote control

In pursuit of a better operating experience, more and more drones choose mobile phone or tablet remote control to operate drones through somatosensory methods. Compared with the traditional remote control, the mobile phone/tablet remote control is smaller and lighter. Because it is operated by somatosensory operation, it is also more user-friendly. However, the mobile phone/tablet remote control also has some disadvantages, such as unstable signals and easy long-distance flight Lost signal.

2. Traditional remote control operation

At present, most drones are still traditional remote controls. Compared with the mobile phone/tablet remote control, although the remote control is bulkier, not light enough to operate, and more difficult to use, its signal stability is far better than that of the mobile phone/tablet remote control, and the remote control distance is also longer. The traditional remote control is for beginners. It is more difficult to learn, and it is more difficult to learn, but after proficiency, it is easier to complete complex and precise flying maneuvers.

3. New remote controls such as watches, bracelets, voice control, etc.

In recent years, some drone manufacturers have developed new remote control tools such as watches, bracelets, and voice control. They have cancelled basic attitude control such as forward and backward, and designed a few simplified one-button controls on watches and voices. An obstacle avoidance system has been added to ensure the safety of aircraft and users. Because the operation is novel and convenient, it is sought after by more and more people, but these new technologies are not yet mature enough, so beginners should avoid such remote control tools as much as possible.
