I choose topic 2, Drone Racing,
Because I wanted to choose an Idea that really doesn't come often and I can code whenever I want like at home but Drone racing is a first come first serve experience. Also you can get a adrenaline rush. What do I need to do
My end goal is to have successfully built a 3d model of what goes into a racing drone and have it printed. What I have done is the frame had been built by using the 3d warehouse and the supports are on. I have put the motors/propellers on along with sizing the camera for the front. I am currently working on putting the motherboard on antenna attached and the receiver will go on the back. And finally installing the battery. What I have learned so far is that a lot of sizing and precise measurements go into making a fully functional racing drone. And it shows me a little bit of insight of what I need to do if I want to build one in the near future. What my research has led me too is that you need to find the right parts or else you have a chance of the drone not even working. And you need to solder it correctly. The website I used to 3d make my model- www.sketchup.com
Because I couldn't 3d print mine I found a website that could give you the whole 3d experience.
My Final product- skfb.ly/66VTJ |
Step 3
The motherboard and antenna attached to the receiver. Next I will add the wires going to the rotors and the battery on. Step 2
I will have the camera attached and sized correctly for the top to fit. And the Motors/Propellers on. Step 1.
This is the main frame of it done, I was going to use Blender but I found sketchup to be a whole lot easier. Next I will try and make the motors and props |
Here are the parts- That I tried to put into my model
