Review of "PILOT RPAS - Multicopter - Reference Guide"

Ernesto Martínez de Carvajal Hedrich (2015) - 250 pages - ISBN 978-84-606-5467-4 - Spanish

Rarely is fortunate to experience firsthand a technological revolution of such magnitude and diffusion as dizzying as the remotely piloted aircraft. Although drones in general, and particularly cópteros, while there, drastic reduction in costs linked to increasingly higher performance, have opened up a world of possibilities in many sectors and activities. Only in Germany in 2014 it was estimated that in the short term over 70,000 specialized professionals around this technology, with high qualifications and remuneration, among which Pilots RPAS, acronym for Remote Pilot Aircraft System would be needed, ie Pilot remotely controlled aircraft.

The aim of this work is on the one hand, contribute to future pilots RPAS specific expertise of these aerodynes of multicóptero type, which are most common in the civil environment and knowledge related to the management of these aircraft in order to overcome the practical test, all supplemented with additional information of interest to both the pilot of these aerodynes as to constitute as Operator, which is the figure that allows the commercial exploitation of these aircraft.

Topics covered

All theoretical issues and specific practices Multirotor type aircraft piloted remotely.

Technical level

Required to train as a pilot Advanced RPAS. To whom it may concern

The book is aimed at anyone who wants to train as a pilot Advancing the RPAS. Additional material including

Along with the book is given a voucher to redeem for a spreadsheet that helps deliver usual documentation of the operators. Among other can generate the "Aeronautical Studies". Simply enter the operator points along the route and the program performs the loxodrómicos calculations to determine the maximum distance from the starting point, total distance traveled, etc., indicating whether, based on the characteristics of the RPAS that It is to be used, it is sufficient autonomy sufficient scope radio, if complies with the type of flight (VLOS ...), etc.

General Aviation Theory

Based on current regulations, to be pilot RPAS has to overcome a theoretical examination of general Aeronautics, which is substantively among others, entitled Pilot ULM, for which the reader has the play "Pilot Tickets Ultra Light Motorized - Reference Guide ", the same author.
