The design and print process
Safety and Responsibility
Summary
The process of designing and building a drone involves significant risks, including exposure to chemicals, fumes, moving parts, and the potential for blunt force trauma.
Key Points
- Responsible for personal health and welfare
- Risks include injury or death
Drone Project Overview
Overview
The project involves designing and building a drone using 3D printing for the frame. The goal is to have a ready-to-run drone with GPS-denied environment flying capabilities.
Parts
- Frame design (printed in full scale and 80% size)
- VOXL flight computer
Steps
1. Design the frame. 2. Print the frame in full scale and 80% size. 3. Develop other components. 4. Integrate VOXL flight computer for GPS-denied environment flying.
Notes
- The VOXL flight computer integration required extensive study, including 8 months of work with Linux OS, Docker, 4G technology, and PX4.
- The build is based on the mini rooster design from daytonadrone.
