The drone works on the propulsion system technology (motors, electronic speed controllers, and propellers), which propels the UAV into the air and allows it to fly in any direction or hover. The motors and propellers on a quadcopter work in pairs, with two motors propellers rotating clockwise. Almost all drones include a Ground Station Controller (GSC) or a smartphone app allowing you to fly the drone and monitor its current telemetry. Telemetry data on the remote controller may include UAV range, height, speed, GNSS strength, battery power remaining, and warnings ( Fintan Corrigan, 2020 ). In addition, many UAV drone ground controllers use FPV (First Person View), which transmits the video from the drone to the controller or mobile device. UAV drones come in a wide variety of sizes- 1. Predator Drone These are largest in size being mostly used for military combat purposes, having dual Global Navigational Satellite Systems (GNSS) such as GPS and GLONASS. 2. Medium Size Drone These have fixed wings and require short runways, generally used to cover large sections of land, counter wildlife poaching. 3. VTOL Drones (Vertical Take-Off and Landing) VTOL drones are light sized, generally quadcopters. VTOL drones can take off, fly, hover and land vertically. An agricultural drone is used to help farmers in increase crop production, optimize agriculture opera- tions and monitor crop growth (Fig. 3). These are high- tech systems equipped with Advance Sensors and digital imaging capabilities that can perform various difficult tasks: monitoring crop health, applying fertilizers and watering the fields, soil health scans, even tracking weather and estimating yields, and then collecting the data and analyzing it.
