Build your own Quadcopter:
There are many commercial drones available with FPV (First Person View) technology. But have you wondered how to build a basic drone from scratch? Do you want to understand the basics and build a simple drone using Arduino as a flight controller? Then come to Engineer's Nook. We'll guide you to build one!
Pre-requisites:
- Age no bar. Participants should have enthusiasm to build stuff
Working kits contents:
- Quadcopter frame, BLDC Motors, Propellers with adapters, LiPo battery, Arduino Uno board, Gyro board, 2.4KHz RF Remote control and receiver.
- Working kit will taken back after the workshop. We can get the parts for the participants if they want.
What you'll learn:
- How quadcopters work?
- What are the building blocks of quadcopter?
- Remote control sticks and their operation
- What are ESCs (Electronic Speed Controllers) and their use in Quadcopters
- How flight controllers work
- Ultimately tuning PID gains to fly the copter
The build:
- Build the frame
- Soldering ESC power on power distribution board
- Interfacing RF receiver with Arduino Uno Flight controller
- Interfacing ESC outputs with Arduino
- Interfacing Gyro with Arduino using I2C
- Executing setup program to store remote control stick values and gyro values on EEPROM
- Calibrating ESCs
- Programming flight controller
- Tuning PID values and fly!
Timings:
- 1-Day workshop. 10 AM-5 PM
