How to Make Money With A Drone: Discovering Your Niche, Finding Customers, and Getting Paid-In The Shortest, Most Cost-Effective Way Possible; Even If You’ve Never Flown A Drone. by Mike Sobola 
What I like about this book is that it really prepares you for the unknown. There are so many things you must do once you get your drone. Classes and licenses and more training. We live within 5 miles of an airport so we are not able to use a drone here, but we travel to places where we could use it.  SO many rules and regulations in this field.
Very detailed, with pictures, explanations about what is shown and how to do certain things.
Like the idea of a mentor or joining a club where they allow newbies to join them, so you can learn things from the members of the club.
Step by step process. There are pictures throughout the book that explain what is being shown.
I can see now that we are retired to use this to inspect our sewer lines, up the fireplace and so many tight places that we can't crawl into. Be an excellent start for the real estate market, photographing the roof of the house, layout from the sky, and even rooms.
References are included at the end, along with maneuvers and how to make the drone do them. Love the gift from the author with links to special favorite locations that will aide you in deciding just how far you want to invest in this hobby or a side job.
Super reference book to answer all your questions.
