Connectors 3.5mm (4,5€) – To weld the esc and the motors.Power distribution board (4€) – This board is using to connect your ESCs to the Battery.We’re using a Hobbyking quadcopter power distribution board for quadcopter.We’re using a Hobbyking battery monitor 3S.

Battery monitor (4€) – It ring when your battery is down.Battery (27,5€) – Of course if you want to fly you must to supply your motors so you need a Battery.4 ESCs (10€) – The electronic speed controller is using to delivery the power to the motor with the informations of the Multiwii.(we will come back to the motors in the step 2) 4 motors (16€) – For a quadcopter you need 4 motors but if you want to make a octocopter you will need 8 motors as well.It’s not difficult to create your frame, you just have to make a X of approximately 0,45m of diameter (for a stable quadcopter) and you put different levels on the center to put your Raspberry, Multiwii, battery, ESCs, etc… A frame – You can buy it on the internet or you can make it like us.To build our quadcopter you will need the following parts : We were helping during this project with some internet website whose Instructables and now we want to share with you our Drone Pi. We are some young french students and it was our first creation. The frame of this quadcopter is constituating with different recycled elements and it was another challenge : create a quadcopter with sometimes heavy elements… But we did it ! It ca recording or just take a picture to a USB key.
#RASPBERRY PI 3 DRONE STATION FULL#
You can also take pictures and Full HD video too !!! A Pi camera is places on the frontground of the Drone Pi. The Multiwii controller look after the 4 motors and distribute the power to supply them whereas the Raspberry Pi collect the informations who came from the smartphone and relay them to the Multiwii.

This quadcopter has a particularity because he’s using 2 differents controller and he could be pilot with 2 differents devices : a remote control or a smartphone. This project is a quadcopter powered by a Multiwii and controlled with a Raspberry Pi 2 B.
