Fixed-wing drones are essentially drones that look like airplanes. Compared to quadcopter drones and rotary drones that are popular for photography and video, fixed-wing drones are designed to be faster and cover a larger area. They are also more efficient when it comes to battery usage and have longer flight times. These flight characteristics are very different from quadcopters. Quadcopter features create a very different experience of flight for drone pilots, though all sorts of craft offer quality features and a stable flight experience.
