Fixed-wing drones are designed like airplanes, with wings that provide lift as the drone moves forward. They are great for covering large areas and can stay airborne for an extended period due to their efficient aerodynamics.
Multi-rotor drones are the most common type and are known for their stability and agility. They have multiple rotors (usually four, six, or eight) that allow them to hover in place and perform precise maneuvers.
Single-rotor drones operate similarly to helicopters, with one large rotor providing lift and a smaller rotor for stability. They are often used for tasks that require heavy payloads or endurance.
Hybrid VTOL (Vertical Takeoff and Landing) drones combine the features of both fixed-wing and multi-rotor drones. They can take off vertically like a quadcopter and transition to efficient forward flight like a fixed-wing aircraft.
Nano drones are small, lightweight drones that are often used for indoor flying or close-range outdoor flights. They are popular for beginners and recreational users due to their compact size and ease of use.
