prusaprinters

<p>This drone landing pad features an integrated ultrasonic sensor that detects a drones presence. When a drone departs the Arduino starts a timer. When you return your lap time is displayed to you.</p> <p>You can either try to improve your personal best or challenge a friend to do better than you (if you trust them with your drone that is).<br/> It can be printed and assembled over a weekend.</p> <p>==========</p> <p>If you'd like to support me you can either:<br/> 'Buy me a coffee' at <a href="https://ko-fi.com/diymachines">https://ko-fi.com/diymachines</a><br/> or check out our Patreon page: <a href="https://www.patreon.com/diymachines">https://www.patreon.com/diymachines</a></p> <p>==========</p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><h3>Category: R/C Vehicles Custom Section</h3> <p>==========</p> <p>List of items used in this project and where to find them:</p> <p>■ Arduino Uno:<a href="http://amzn.to/2prkQvJ">http://amzn.to/2prkQvJ</a><br/> ■ 7 Segment Display: <a href="http://amzn.to/2HRAzuR">http://amzn.to/2HRAzuR</a><br/> ■ Battery holder: <a href="http://amzn.to/2pwiWJJ">http://amzn.to/2pwiWJJ</a><br/> ■ Neodymium Magnets 3 x 6mm: <a href="https://amzn.to/2GoyaKV">https://amzn.to/2GoyaKV</a><br/> ■ Coloured wires: <a href="http://amzn.to/2IDIU6D">http://amzn.to/2IDIU6D</a><br/> ■ Ultrasonic sensor: <a href="http://amzn.to/2pt4xOm">http://amzn.to/2pt4xOm</a><br/> ■ Rechargeable batteries: <a href="http://amzn.to/2ptrSQ1">http://amzn.to/2ptrSQ1</a><br/> or<br/> ■ Standard AAs: <a href="http://amzn.to/2GNj8wg">http://amzn.to/2GNj8wg</a><br/> ■ Red and Green LEDs: <a href="http://amzn.to/2puX7Kw">http://amzn.to/2puX7Kw</a><br/> ■ Resistors: <a href="http://amzn.to/2HTmLA2">http://amzn.to/2HTmLA2</a></p> <p>==========</p> <p>Download the Arduino code:<br/> ■ <a href="https://www.electromaker.io/project/view/drone-landing-pad-with-arduino-timer">https://www.electromaker.io/project/view/drone-landing-pad-with-arduino-timer</a></p> <p>==========</p> <p>SUBSCRIBE:<br/> ■ <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3jc4X-kEq-dEDYhQ8QoYnQ?sub_confirmation=1">https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3jc4X-kEq-dEDYhQ8QoYnQ?sub\_confirmation=1</a></p> <p>INSTAGRAM: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/diy_machines/?hl=en">https://www.instagram.com/diy\_machines/?hl=en</a><br/> FACEBOOK:<a href="https://www.facebook.com/diymachines/?ref=aymt_homepage_panel">https://www.facebook.com/diymachines/?ref=aymt\_homepage\_panel</a><br/> PATREON: <a href="https://www.patreon.com/diymachines">https://www.patreon.com/diymachines</a></p> <p>Video: <a href="https://youtu.be/sQK5-0PZOK0">https://youtu.be/sQK5-0PZOK0</a></p> <p>Disclaimer:<br/> This video is shared for demonstration purposes only.</p>
