This course covers the following topics:
- Your drone: including the different components, accessories, and best practices.
- Basic Regulation: I cover everything you need to know about FAA regulation for hobbyist with several short and easy-to-understand videos.

- Basic Photography and Videography: in the last two chapters, I cover the basic principles of photography and videography, including aperture, shutter speed, ISO, capture modes (A, S, M), frame rate, HDR, ND filters, and many more. This section will help you take your story telling skills to the next level.
