First things first - What is an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle or an U.A.V?
An Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (U.A.V.) is an aircraft that has the capability of autonomous flight, without a pilot in control. Amateur U.A.V.s are non-military and non-commercial. They typically fly under “recreational” exceptions to F.A.A. regulations on U.A.V.s, so long as the pilots/programmers keep them within tight limits on altitude and distance. Usually the U.A.V. is controlled manually by Radio Control (RC) at take-off and landing, and switched into G.P.S.-guided autonomous mode only at a safe altitude.
It is also commonly known as a drone, is an aircraft without a human pilot on board.
There are a wide variety of drone shapes, sizes, configurations, and characteristics. Historically, U.A.V.s were simple remotely piloted aircraft, but autonomous control is increasingly being employed.
They are now deployed professionally for military applications and are also use in a small but growing number of civil applications, such as policing, firefighting, and nonmilitary security work, such as surveillance of pipelines. U.A.V.s are often preferred for missions that are too "dull, dirty, or dangerous" for manned aircraft.
