The idea

Make a quad copter that can make pictures

  • so stability is preferred over stunting
  • would be nice if I could add auto navigation, but this is not required
  • want to control the camera from the ground
  • budget ~250 euro

Related and inspired by:

To do

  • Gather info about comparable quad-copters
  • Estimation of the weight, and figure out which parts are needed
  • See which camera would be suitable (programmable simple lightweight cam)
  • Think about the design
  • Order parts
  • Make the thing
  • Learn to fly

Parts

  • Receiver (already on board?)
  • Transmitter
  • Body/frame (DIY or prefab?)
  • Motors
  • Propellers
  • Flight control board (with integrated camera control?)
  • Batteries
  • Camera stabiliser thingies
  • Simple build-in video camera?
  • Wires (probably enough of those at home), connectors and stuff
