Quadcopters that give you a view from above Drones, drones, drones! You’ve probably heard the word “drones” one too many times this year, but the hobby is definitely taking off (no pun intended). You might think these are just radio-controlled quadcopters with cameras and, well, some of them are. But many of them are packing an array of sensors to help them fly autonomously and be piloted from far out of sight. All of the ones here are quadcopters we’re currently reviewing (or will be when they’re available) and are targeted at those getting started in the hobby or just looking for a ready-to-fly experience instead of DIY.
