Drone Building

Drone Building

My passion for drone technology began when I was 16 years old. I built my first custom drone from scratch, teaching myself about flight controllers, motors, propellers, and the intricate programming required to make everything work together. This hobby has grown into a serious technical activity that combines engineering, programming, and creative problem-solving.

Drone Building Journey

My first drone was built using the following components:

  • Frame ordered online for improved stability and agility
  • ArduPilot Mega APM 2.6 board with Ublox Neo-7M GPS and 920KV brushless motors
  • 9 nylon propellers
  • GPS folding antenna mount and holder
  • 10-channel transmitter with touchscreen display and 10-channel receiver
  • 3000mAh LiPo battery for extended flight time
