Info about the upcoming Hack Session about Quadcopters / Multicopters / Drones
What is needed to create a flying machine?
- hardware parts and where to get them (a big issue for people in Greece)
- software. Lots of open source code out there, still lots of stuff to implement
- radios
- basic soldering/crafting skills
- money (but not as expensive as you may think)
- time (getting started is more or less a weekend project)
Cool stuff to do with your flying machine
- Aerial photography
- FPV and drone racing (yeah!)
- autonomous flight
- …the sky is the limit
Ideas for the hack session
- an intro into what is needed and how to get started (see above)
- build a multicopter from scratch
- heraklion drone racing league 🙂
- autonomous flight software projects and ideas
