Um, step by step guide on how to build a drone? With pictures? Where was that part again? I think I got the wrong book, lol. Big scam. Do not buy.
Most of this book just tells you how to fly the drone and what sort of licence to get as an American. The whole building a drone part will take you 3 minutes to read.
