Most Recent Announcement
I would just like to announce that I making the Quadcopter a weekly (maybe twice a week) project that will probably last the whole semester.
- The stuff that I need help with:
Choosing an appropriate design that will carry a RaspberryPi, an Ardiuno , and the wires that will connect the circuitry.
- Determining what sensors and equipment the quadcopter will need and programming them.
- Making\programming the quadcopter to be stable and can stay level in the air when need be.
- Making a decent User Interface.
- Making a good control scheme for phones and pads.
- Building a simple AI that adjusts the quad copter angle so it becomes stable if thrown.
- Sending video feedback to the control device if it can receive it(desktop,laptop,phones,ipads,etc...)
- Adding cool features to the quadcopter (such as lasers and nurf guns, GPS, person tracking, a small robotic arm, etc....)
- Adding anything you can think of that can be added to make the quadcopter more awesome.
- Help making the project wikipage better\ teaching me how to use the wikipage better
The weekly meeting time still hasn't been decided yet. Send me an email to receive the doodle link with the possible times.

Ahmed, will your homegrown copter fly this Saturday?
Resource information at Drones project! - duncan
No, This Saturday (9/14) we will build the frame of the quadcopter then for each subsequent week adding components until we get a full grown quadcopter with whatever add-on we can. -Ahmed
