National Level Quad Copter Development Workshop cum Championship-2017

Highlights of the QuadCopter Workshop     

Introduction to Multi Rotor Vehicles & QuadCopter dynamics Introduction to design & concepts of Embedded Systems behind the Quadrotor Understanding the Electronics circuit ,Fabrication, Calibration & Testing of Quadcopter Learning about the working of accelerometer sensors, gyros and controllers - P & PI Hands-on experience of flying QuadCopter using Radio Control  Participation Certificate from RoboFeast’16 with association EDC IIT-Roorkee.

What is QuadCopter & what can you do with it? Quadcopter is a rotary-wing aircraft with four rotors which has marked its interests for the benefit of both civil and military domains. Its amazing maneuverability and the ease to fly in constricted locations have achieved itself a remarkable position in the aviation sector. Our workshop helps participants understand the concepts and use of accelerometer sensor, microcontrollers and wireless communication in designing and controlling a Quadcopter.
