Most Recent Announcement
- Meeting times will be on Wednesdays from 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm and on Saturdays from 11 am to 1 pm. Both meetings will be held in the physics garage room. 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

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

We built the frame of the quadcopter. Here are some of the images we have taken during the assembly:
