Week 7 Semester 2

Quad copter circuit system operations.

For this week, I will explain about the circuit system operation for the quad copter. First, from the battery, voltage travel through the electronic speed controller than go to the motor. This is for supply to the motor. For the circuit, from the battery, voltage travel through the voltage regulator that produces 5 volts than go to the sensor (gyroscope), receiver (5DOFIMU) and Micro Controller (Atmega328). From the Micro Controller go to the ESC and motor. 

Week 6 Semester 2

Design the circuit.

In this week, I started to design the circuit. I have a problem to design this circuit. For your information, this quad copter is using arduino programming. Because of this problem, I have made some research about the circuit. I found a source from the forum quad copter in the internet. This forum discuss about the how to make the quad copter for beginner. From the forum, I had an idea to make a circuit and it is my source. Ic that I choose is atmega328.

Week 5 Semester 2

Assemble the project for mechanical part.

In this week, I have to assemble the mechanical part. The frame, landing skid, motor, and propeller are constructing together. Below shown I have been constructed my project for mechanical part.

Week 4 Semester 2

Buy equipment.

For this week, I went to the Jalan Pasar to buy some items needed to complete my project. I bought 4 Electronic Speed Controller (ESC), wire connectors, blades, battery and board. The expenses for this all item are RM1000.
