It became self aware


Someone once said: -"Pictures or it didn't happen".

This is how to get prepared for flight. In addition to the quad and the transmitter, you need a laptop.


Everything is by this time wired. That's why you see the green light on the flight controller. It indicates that the GPS reports that it is locked on to a fixed position. The sonar is also connected and reports correctly.
 

Another picture..


So, you wanna see how it flies :) ? The video is rather short due to two factors.
  • The battery of my mobile was at this time drained to 4%, hence keeping it short.
  • The left down motor gets seriously overheated due to some fault. It may break down if its magnets gets loose. This could happen due to heat as they are glued on...
 Note that I show no hands as the quad loiters :)
