I was pretty bored on Sunday so I decided to whip up something with the new L289N dual motor drivers and coreless brushed motors that I just ordered from amazon. I was pretty sure it wasn't going to fly due to my lack of any aerodynamic research. Regardless, I still wanted to accomplish correct electrical wiring, so I did. To test the wiring, I wrote a very simple code to turn on all the propellors when the button was pushed and it worked.
​
This 'drone' is made up of:
-
2 L289N motor driver
-
4 coreless brushless motor propellers
-
An Arduino nano
-
2 9V batteries
-
Arduino button module
-
Cardboard for the wings
​
Doing this baby project has made me want to build a real drone so I see myself revisiting this after more research.
Hopefully, the next drone would be built in a way that allows it to generate enough thrust to lift off and have functional joystick control.
