The global market for Consumer Grade Drone was valued at US$ 7100 million in the year 2023 and is projected to reach a revised size of US$ 12060 million by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 8.0% during the forecast period.
A consumer-grade drone, also known as a recreational or hobby drone, is a small, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) designed for personal use and enjoyment. Unlike commercial or industrial drones, these devices are primarily intended for activities such as photography, videography, aerial surveying, and recreational flying. They are typically equipped with features like high-resolution cameras, GPS systems, and intuitive controls, making them accessible to users of all skill levels.
With the improvement of people's living standards and the popularization of drone technology, more and more people are beginning to try and buy drones. Consumers’ awareness of drone technology is also increasing, which is further driving the expansion of the drone market. Consumer drones are also continuing to “evolve.” For example, drones are developing in the direction of miniaturization, miniaturization, "extended" battery life, and network clustering. Micro-UAVs like the "Black Hornet" and "Hummingbird" not only have the advantages of long endurance and real-time video transmission, but also replace traditional large-scale UAVs in many application scenarios. In the future, with the continuous development of drone technology, the performance and functions of consumer drones will be even better.
The consumer-grade drone market is expected to continue growing, driven by several factors:
Technological advancements: Improvements in battery life, camera quality, and autonomous flight capabilities will make drones more versatile and appealing to consumers.
Expanding applications: Beyond photography and videography, drones are finding new uses in fields such as agriculture, real estate, and search and rescue.
Decreasing prices: As manufacturing costs decline, drones will become more affordable, making them accessible to a wider audience.
Regulatory changes: More favorable regulations in many countries will facilitate the use of drones for recreational and commercial purposes.
Integration with other technologies: Drones may be integrated with augmented reality, virtual reality, and artificial intelligence, creating new opportunities for innovative applications.
The application of 5G technology will increase the market space of consumer drones
The 5G network provides the overall network solution from the wireless network to the core network, and promotes the development of the UAV industry with all aspects of technology improvement. The 5G network connected UAV means that the UAV terminal and ground control terminal transmit data and control instructions through the 5G network, and load applications in various scenarios through the service server. 5G network provides the UAV industry with an overall network solution from the wireless network to the core network. Compared with 4G network, 5G network capabilities can be better and more complete in some applications that have been achieved in the previous 4G network. For example, the use of low delay to achieve remote real-time operations, the use of high transmission rate to achieve high-definition video real-time live broadcast, from coarse precision inspection detection to high-precision precision operations.
Most parts and systems can be fully domestic
The main systems of consumer UAVs can be divided into video surveillance system, flight control system, power system, rack and interactive software, etc. The core system of aerial photography UAV is camera monitoring system and flight control system. Dji is a consumer drone leader, in the picture transmission system, Pith and flight control system are fully independent research and development, but the main control chip, some system IC chips, cameras and gyroscopes and other precision instruments still choose to purchase from foreign companies. The rest of the UAV components are supplied by domestic suppliers.
The overall profit of the industry is high
Consumer drones use more finished parts in the parts, the cost is low, and the gross profit is relatively rich. In terms of sales price, the price of small consumer UAVs is lower than that of fixed wing or large rotary wing UAVs required for industry-level applications. But the cost of consumer drones is extremely low.
