Quadcopter v1

Simon Waite

Since 2010 I’ve been interested in building a quadcopter.

My initial experiment in building a frame (Summer 2010) with metal tubing and metal plates turned out to be quite disappointing as the arms warped and screws rattled free.

April 2011 brought a Hobby King quadcopter frame to my door. It’s wood and fibreglass, and nylon screws and bolts – it looks a little fragile, but we shall see after bolting the motors to it!
