Operating a drone beyond line of sight requires some really good radio transmission or cellular connection. Yes plugging a sim card into a flight computer and transmitting the flight commands via the cellular tower network does happen. When we learned the potential of this and during some real trying times configuring the drone to cell…
Drawing Board for topics and subjects Our company has been working with and building everything computer controlled. This is our attempt to share our progress and also to share new developments and learning as we grow our capabilities. The micro computer development has exploded, many new developments and developers with increasing useability. In residential housing,…
Disclaimer: 18650 batteries can short out and catch fire. You got that! Use caution when working with and using lithium ion batteries as they are very sensitive to charging characteristics and may explode, burn, or cause a fire if misused or mishandled. Always charge in or on a fire-proof surface. Never leave batteries charging unattended….
It’s easy to get confused trying to understand basic principles to develop simple computer applications because of time. That is what is the actual date of the development your trying to build. The one thing that is important to understand is the pace of microcomputer production and coding is extreme. One year is almost to…
CCP That’s Chinese Communist Party, For the communist loving Americans we understand your exiting our forums and educational programs at this point and wish you well. For the people that want to learn and understand modern technical topics and consider themselves Patriots we welcome you.It’s important to understand that China manipulates their currency, uses slave labor and…
First we need to identify what it is and why we are interested in learning and developing with it. My first impression was that it was being implemented in advanced drone development, further investigation reveals the use is more common that thought and variations are also present. But getting an understanding and then actually building…
Projects that are home built. Learning Tek as we learn to build with System on Module (SoM), a small form-factor, ready-to-use, processor module. Single Board Computers (SBC) used in so many fun to build projects. 3D Printing and RePRap communities. The possibilities are endless and The fun is Learning.

After the past couple years trying to get the 3d printing processes and related components figured out it’s time to add the 3d scanner element. I am still fighting the fusion360/CAD portion but have mastered the 3d printing cycle. Working with cad designers we freelance and a lot of imagination there were some great projects…
The mission of building a light strong 3d printed drone presented some challenges. Our build is doing well but refinments are always part of a continued development process. One of the areas i have wanted to improve is the blade guard assembly. Currently it is 6 parts glued together then secured to the body and…
