Too General
I bought this book believing there were techniques that I didn’t know about. I’m a seasoned beginner and was looking forward to improving my flying. The truth is I had already been practicing most of the authors recommendations. Obviously, the federal and local laws pertained to Australia while the references to certifications and this and that didn’t apply in the U.S. I read this material in less than an hour.

Wrong Title for this book
Despite being new to the Drone/Quadcopter hobby this book did very little for me. It was very short.

An excellent book for those who wish to hone their drone flying techniques,and with the increase in legislation regarding Drone flying then this book is a must. My only criticism is that the black & white pictures could be a little sharper.
