Book excerpt: Do you own a drone? Then you need a log book. Log each flight confidently and increase your safety, as well as the value of your drone. This log book is the official standard and includes details that are specific to drone operations. You have space for 360 drone flights and dedicated spots for each flight date location drone number (registration number) drone type aircraft performance characteristics aircraft's lost link procedures ...and more! Why do you need a drone log book? Marketing. Showing a completed logbook to a potential customer is a great marketing point. Like the old adage, "A picture is worth a thousand words," a good logbook is worth a thousand flights. You can quickly demonstrate your flight experience by flipping through the pages. Furthermore, a well-kept and orderly logbook gives the impression that you are a professional. The FAA or Law Enforcement Can Request Your Logbook. If you are a commercial operator flying under Part 91 & Part 61 (like with a Section 333 exemption), 14 C.F.R. § 61.51(i) says, "Persons must present their pilot certificate, medical certificate, logbook, or any other record required by this part for inspection upon a reasonable request by" the FAA, an authorized representative from the National Transportation Safety Board, or any Federal, State, or local law enforcement officer. If your electronic logbook is on your device, do you really want to give law enforcement or the FAA your device? Furthermore, how are you to get the data off that device? Insurance. When you apply for insurance, they will ask you to fill out a form that is going to ask for all sorts of information. A logbook will assist you in filling out the form so you can receive the most accurate quote. Required in Other Countries. Other countries such as South Africa require the drone logbook to be in paper. Paper is the current industry standard. Less Cumbersome. If you are marketing to a potential client, you can scan pages of your logbook and send it to them. It is more cumbersome to get the data off a phone or website. Very Little Problems. What happens if your phone is stolen, water damaged, battery dies, or there is poor cell phone signal? Paper does not need a cell signal or batteries. No Data Theft. You don't have to worry about data theft like you would with a website or an app. Fidelity. Electronic logbooks can be changed while pen and paper are permanent. Buy now for yourself or a friend and be confident in your drone's flight log.
Download or read book Small Unmanned Aircraft written by Randal W. Beard and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2012-02-26 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Autonomous unmanned air vehicles (UAVs) are critical to current and future military, civil, and commercial operations. Despite their importance, no previous textbook has accessibly introduced UAVs to students in the engineering, computer, and science disciplines--until now. Small Unmanned Aircraft provides a concise but comprehensive description of the key concepts and technologies underlying the dynamics, control, and guidance of fixed-wing unmanned aircraft, and enables all students with an introductory-level background in controls or robotics to enter this exciting and important area. The authors explore the essential underlying physics and sensors of UAV problems, including low-level autopilot for stability and higher-level autopilot functions of path planning. The textbook leads the student from rigid-body dynamics through aerodynamics, stability augmentation, and state estimation using onboard sensors, to maneuvering through obstacles. To facilitate understanding, the authors have replaced traditional homework assignments with a simulation project using the MATLAB/Simulink environment. Students begin by modeling rigid-body dynamics, then add aerodynamics and sensor models. They develop low-level autopilot code, extended Kalman filters for state estimation, path-following routines, and high-level path-planning algorithms. The final chapter of the book focuses on UAV guidance using machine vision. Designed for advanced undergraduate or graduate students in engineering or the sciences, this book offers a bridge to the aerodynamics and control of UAV flight.
Download or read book Drone Operator s Logbook written by Jonathan Rupprecht and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-12-02 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Federal Aviation Regulations, COA, & Section 333 Exemption Compliant. This logbook has been specifically designed to be compliant with 14 CFR 61.51, Section 333 exemptions, and COA logbook requirements. Easy COA Reporting. If you have MULTIPLE aircraft, this will NOT work. Buy one logbook for each drone. The FAA requires that commercial operators who have 333 exemptions and "blanket" COA's to file monthly reports. It is EXTREMELY annoying to log all this information and then send it in via email. If you have one drone per logbook, do not have any takeoff or landing damage, equipment malfunctions, or lost link events, you could simply make scans of the pages for the month and email them into the FAA. The COA's say, "number of flights (per location, per aircraft)" & "total aircraft operational hours[.]" The columns only support one aircraft; however, recreational flyers could list multiple aircraft because they are currently not required to report. Disclaimer: Current FAA "blanket" COAs say "must submit the following information" and do not explicitly say scans are acceptable. The FAA could issue guidance in the future further clarifying the mode of report (text in email vs. scan in email). It is up to YOU to keep up to date on this. The FAA or Law Enforcement Can Request Your Logbook. 14 C.F.R. § 61.51(i) says, "Persons must present their pilot certificate, medical certificate, logbook, or any other record required by this part for inspection upon a reasonable request by" the FAA, an authorized representative from the National Transportation Safety Board, or any Federal, State, or local law enforcement officer.

Download or read book The Standard Aircraft Flight Log written by Asa and published by Aviation Supplies & Academics. This book was released on 2009-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spiral-bound and perfectly sized to fit in an aircraft glove box or chart pocket, this logbook is a quick reference to the recent history of the airplane so pilots have immediate access to the airplane's records, without having to dig through logbooks usually kept in the maintenance hangar. The Aircraft Flight Log fills a gap in aircraft records for pilots, and instantly allows them to know the status of the aircraft they are about to fly. This new version now contains an entry for tracking GPS database updates. Formatted for ease of use, the Aircraft Flight Log features space for the pilot-in-command to log: out/in operating time destination and purpose of flight squawks if oil was added inspections performed (VOR, pitot-static, ELT) when an oil change, 100-hour, annual inspection, and GPS database update is due This allows pilots in the following flights to quickly familiarize themselves with the airplane and be warned of potential problems. It is a way for the previous pilot to "speak" to the following pilot of details about the operating characteristics; something not always possible as pilots don't typically have the opportunity to personally hand the keys to the next pilot. The log is also useful for recording operations for tax purposes, as well as monitoring oil consumption. The inside of the Aircraft Flight Log can be personalized for each aircraft, with places to note N-number, type of aircraft, serial numbers of the airframe and engine(s), and the date of purchase. Contact information is prominently displayed for owner information should the log be misplaced, and there is a section detailing the date the log begins and ends, along with engine tach information. The Standard(TM) logbooks have been supporting the aviation industry for over 60 years and comply with the FAA's recordkeeping requirements.
