How to Make a Drone / UAV - Lesson 1: Terminology

Is there any calculations to control the speed of the drone

@akshaya Certainly - that is part of the flight controllerā€™s programming (for those which have that feature).

Hello sir, I am a nigerian who is interested in building a drone but i i dont know hw to get the compo ents

@Jemil jemil RobotShop.com ships parts worldwide.

i want to design a uav wt 5 kg payload plz which kv bldc motor i have to choose plz suggest

@Prashant Take a look at lesson 3: Propulsion.

Hello,
I am Shaun and I am looking for someone who has experience and expertise in the subject of drones. I am making a drone for my Personal Project (part of the IB MYP Course). If possible I am looking to have a conversation on this topic and how to create one. If anyone could help, it would be very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Shaun

4 BO HOBBY MOTORS CAN USED IN SMALL BASE HELICOPTER WE CONNECT WITH SOLAR POWER WHILE IT CAN FLY IT TAKES THE SOLAR PANAL BECOSE OF IT WEIGHT

@Shaun Gomes Not sure you will get many replies here. You might want to create a new topic on the RobotShop Forum with specific questions. Be sure to read through this entire series of articles first.

@basker We donā€™t really suggest that approach because the surface area of the solar panels will greatly affect the droneā€™s flight characteristics and act like a sail / parachute. If you want to use solar power, we suggest considering an airplane or blimp.

I believe FC can be common for all drones with basic control.

But can you please guide me how to choose ESC and the motor type, especially how to choose the motor which will last long under full stress requiring no maintenance.
And how many channels FC should support considering one building DRONE will all features like GPS, ALTITUDE Hold, Return Home, Battery indicatorā€¦

Please guide me on the best and the 2nd best FC, ESC and the motor name.

Thanks in advance.

Dear Sir/ Madam,
I am PHAM Ngoc Quang and currently working at Remote Sensing Department in Vietnam. I have been doing research on UAV, but I have encountered two difficulties which I have not figured out the solutions. Fortunately, I came across your email address while reading some documents, and I am writing to ask for your support.
I would be very grateful if you can give me some suggestion to deal with these difficulties.

  1. Features of day flying and night flying UAVs
  2. Day-flying and night-flying photography of the cameras mounted on UAVs
    I am looking forward to hearing from you.
    Thank you very much for your concern

@Sandeep Sandhu Take a look at lesson 3 for ideas on how to choose the motor + propeller + ESC. In terms of which BLDC motor will last the longest, that comes down to quality. Regarding how many channels your remote control should have, note that the features you list can be toggled with one knob, so you would only need a 5 channel remote where the 5th channel was a knob rather than a two or three-way switch. Unfortunately knobs tend to only be found on 7ch or more remote controls. At RobotShop.com we try to sell only quality parts.

@Pham ngoc Quang A multirotor drone does not care if it is day or night; when flying at night, you really should have some LEDs to indicate direction (red on left, green on right). The choice of camera is up to you - in certain areas there is enough lighting at night so that you donā€™t need infrared (just a normal camera will do).

I want to make a drone.Tell me, how to make a drone in details. I am waiting for ur reply.

dear sir I am a student. I just want to make report on working model of drone

@sm emran If you need details about which specific parts to choose, how to make connections etc., then you should be considering a drone kit: https://www.robotshop.com/en/uav-drone-kits.html

Sir I am mechanical engineer . My project is assembly the parts of drone .
I want to make some new drone for a Pattent .
So suggested me whatā€™s I am do and whatā€™s I am added in quaddrone.

@Noorain Ansari If you want to patent a new drone design, but are not sure which parts to select, you may want to experiment with drones first in order to get experience. Conside ra drone kit.

Can I make drone without fight controller
Sorry for bad English
