This comprehensive training starts from the basics of Aeromodelling design concepts accompanied with brushing up your skills in the associated Electronics and takes you further into a detailed insight of the quadcopter design process.
Students are taken through an extensive hands on training session where they actively participate in a group to put together the various components together to complete the Quadcopter. Various testing and tuning sessions are also carried at the end of the training so that the students can have a better understanding of the debugging processes as well.
Eligibility: It's intended for anyone and everyone interested in building a remote controlled quadcopter. Hobbyists and Professionals not having a technical background are equally welcome as we take everybody in the class through a thorough introduction to the basics and bring everyone at par in the class. While this course is discontinued, our Advanced Robotics with Arduino and PCB Design and Fabrication courses cover closely related hardware skills.
