Test Flights

This is us setting up the flight. Connecting the battery and connecting the controller.

This is our first test flight, which unfortunatley never took off properly. It turns out the motors where turning the wrong ways, and caused the take-off malfunction.

This was our 2nd flight, unfortunately the first successful flight was not caught.

Brady fly.MOV

This was our3rd flight and 2nd successful flight. the mode Loiter is on and made it a very stable and successful flight.

Tests - Dropping Mechanism

Disaster struck when our drone lost control in the air due to an unbalanced load, and crash landed. In the crash our 360 servo broke, the servo box cover broke, and a propellar snapped in half. It also did not help that the Loiter mode was not working. But we are currently working on fixing it.

Sucessful Grid Search

This flight was our first successful grid flight. We needed to put in in auto manually on the computer. Grid flights are meant to search a wide area in lines. Everything worked perfectly however I did set the height to 100m(300ft) and not 100 ft.

After the flight, somehow one of the motors came loose on landing. However that was an easy fix.

Water Bottle Drop Flight - Attempt 1

This was our first attempt at flying with all 4 water bottles to drop them. Unfortunately the drone was too heavy with all of them. But without at least 2 the drone will be off-balance and also crash.
