Designing Purpose-Built Drones for Ardupilot Pixhawk 2.1
Learn the methodologies to design and develop drones for land, sea, and air with a mission in mind. From a golf-trolly that carries your clubs and follows you around the course to fixed-wing powered gliders designed to carry scientific samples from the expedition back to the base camp, you’ll learn that drones don’t just exist for fun anymore… now they can fill market gaps. Ergo, you’ll learn to design prototype drones that can make you money!
