How to Build a Quadcopter
E-mail: quadsforfun@outlook.com
The level of interest in building a Quad has increased dramatically in the past few years. For beginners to the hobby, putting together the first Quad parts list can be extremely confusing, especially for people who don’t come from a background in radio controlled planes or helicopters. But remember: A) It’s a hobby; B) This should be fun; C) You’re a beginner and you’re learning…few fails will happen anyway. Building or buying are nice attitudes and they complement each other! The best way to learn how things work inside is to build one from zero. It brings a deep understanding in how to put parts together. In the other hand, buying available ready to fly Quads from market will be a very nice training of flying, understanding the possible movements of a Quad. Some crashes are inevitable in the learning process. There's no way to avoid them. Do not get upset, fix the propellers, mend the pieces and go flying again! It seems that good and reliable information is available on internet and it’s not too hard to find and summarize them. The purpose of the next page is to provide some of the best links about the subject. They will be very helpful to build the own Quadcopter. Before that, take a look at some tips from the experts, people who have a strong RC background: 1) Work in slow progression. Do not try to do too much, too fast. 2) Start to build a simple Quadcopter or initiate buying a Ready to Fly one. See 36 different models at PDF Review Tab on http://quadsforfun.wix.com/quadsforfun. 3) For a first Quad, do not initially try to build a video recording (FPV) copter. They have a lot of technology inside. 4) For having a taste and lots of fun, try the inexpensive, safe and ready to use micro Quad (see models at PDF Review Tab on http://quadsforfun.wix.com/quadsforfun. 5) Avoid to start to build your own frame. There are different models available to easily buy. 6) Avoid to start with a big and more dangerous multicopter. A small and agile Quad is more fun to fly than big ones as hexacopters or octocopters.
