The project consists in buiding from scratch a quadcopter drone and its remote control. The drone frame is 20 cm large and propeller radius is 6.5 cm. The total mass is 130g, the 2x3.7V batteries included. It is powered by four DC brushed motors. The core of the drone is an Arduino Nano, connected to:
- a HC12 radio transmitter to receive commands from the remote control
- a MPU6050 accelerometer to measure the drone state
- four MOSFET transistors to send power to the motors
- the batteries for power supply
- a voltage divider circuit for battery monitoring
