QUADCOPTER
One of our projects for this Fall 2016 semester include the design and creation of a quadcopter. If you are unfamiliar with what a quadcopter is: An aerodynamic device/vehicle that utilizes four motors to rotate angled blades (relative to the horizontal plane) to create lift. We are planning on renovating the one we currently have in our office, but are strongly considering starting from scratch. We will be able to explore the different ways to use SolidWorks (3D modeling software) to model the components and see how they fit together in one cohesive structure. We will also be able to fly the fully functioning drone.
