19 April 2024

Without mulling around any further, let’s get on with showing you who made the cut, so you can see why their writing, photos, and videos are especially awesome. Keep your laptop fully fired-up, because we’ve got scores of reading for you to do! Here are the proud winners:

#1: Tom’s Tech Time

Our number one contender is chock full of information on pilot training, tools and gadgets, very informative videos, footage from flyers, and camera info. They have proven themselves ahead of the rest with reviews of filters, backpacks, hardcases, and even HDMI modules.

Just to show you how great the pilot training section is, check out this video that shows you how to properly fly over water. It gives you a clear explanation of how to use every feature on the app, avoid obstacles en route, and observe the water before flying.

To check out the latest on Phantom 4 vs. Phantom 3, How to avoid crashes, and many more cool topics they cover, visit Tom’s Tech Time here to see just why they are so awesome and innovative.

#2: Drone Deploy’s Blog

A very slick interface and lots of valuable information is waiting for you here at this portal whose goal is to make sense of the commercial drone industry. It makes sense that they scored so high, because at just one brief glance, you can see that they take what they do very seriously.

One of the most relevant topics on their website is “How Drones are Building ROI at Construction Sites”, which you can read here. They are also doing a first-rate job of depicting how agricultural drones are bringing value to farmers, and showing how major events planners are benefitting from drone mapping capabilities.

They have a very comprehensive list of topics, and they don’t skimp on multimedia or photos, one reason why we truly believe that so many are eager to see what they have to say immediately. Check out Drone Deploy’s Blog here, and see for yourself why the #2 spot is well-earned by them.

#3: Dronethusiast (Hey That’s Me!)

Well, as we described when we first began the poll, we secretly hoped we would rank highly, and we did! Our most recent post here is about the British Airways drone incident, and we’ve got a multitude of info on tap for you this spring.

Tips and tricks, Tutorials such as “Buying Drone Accessories on a Budget”, and comprehensive reviews of new releases such as the DJI M600 are all items we’re serving up for you, and we’ve loved every minute of producing this high-quality content. We are covering items such as propellers, batteries, cameras, and even RC boats already this year, and we promise that the best is yet to come.

Come check us out here whenever you aren’t out flying your toys around, and we promise to keep cranking out the content to keep you motivated.

#4: The Drone Girl

She herself is not a commercial pilot, but a world-renowned journalist who has had her work published in news outlets such as CNN, NPR, the BBC, Forbes, and The Economist. She first became interested in cheap drones when she was a producer and photographer at the Missouri School Of Journalism’s program, where she produced a great video for Harvest Public Media where a drone captures footage of a prairie fire.

One of her latest posts is The Perfect Drone for Someone Looking to Spend $100 , where she gives a very comprehensive and in-depth review of what she deems is an awesome device within that price point.

Cases, batteries, and many other cool items of gear are reviewed here, as well as a recent spotlight on Zoe Stumbaugh, the world’s top female drone pilot who was once bedridden, and now enjoys drones as the best hobby she could have ever hoped to embrace. To get her point of view on everything happening in the drone world and just to check out how all-around awesome she is, visit her here. She mobilized her troops and got herself voted in at #5 in our Top Drone Blogs poll!
