OSHGroup 020: How to make an Open Source Hardware UAV – DIY Drones

If you had your own drone, what would you do with it?

DIY Drones is a company that has open sourced the designs for a universal autopilot – ArduPilot – as the name implies, it incorporates portions of an Arduino microcontroller.

This is cool, because a large community has formed around the technology and are doing some really impressive things – and sharing it.

Whats great about DIY drones is that now you can build your own UAV for a very reasonable price.

Whats even better about DIY Drones is that when you crash it, their is a community of people to help you figure out how to put it together again.
