If you have a 3D printer and want to build and fly your own drone for under $160, just print this thing! Here's a video of our drone flying: https://youtu.be/_6sJGYEiRxY Print Settings Rafts: Don't worry about rafts; they're not necessary. Infill: Use 15-20% infill to achieve the perfect balance between weight and strength.

Yeah, you did it! Now find an open place without wind, and if it's sunny, FLY YOUR DRONE! Enjoy! Educational Project Designing this drone was part of a science project. Scroll down for more details. Standards NGSS and CCSS are the standards used in this educational project. Overview and Background Why did we design this? We needed to find a subject for our science project, so all group members chose to design, build, and fly our own drone because we were all fans of this concept. That's what we did! A behind-the-scenes view on designing the drone... Lesson Plan and Activity For over 4 months, each week we had two hours to work on this project, and we proceeded as follows: Designed the drone (about 3 x 2 hours) Search + find the parts needed & order them (about 2 x 2 hours) Re-designed the drone to adapt it to the parts we bought (about 2 x 2 hours) 3D printed the drone (overnight) Assembled the drone (about 2 x 2 hours) FLY THE DRONE! Materials Needed Check "Post-Printing" Tab for the full list Duration of Lesson About 10 hours
