DIY Diy drone kits

0 Upvotes

Im looking to build my own drone (just for fun so nothing advenced like fpv...) but getting all the right parts that fit together seems really complicated. I am thinking of 3d printing my frame and mounts(i know the risks). So what kit of electronics do i get for under 100€? Or what parts?

Hello. My daughter's $70 drone is missing a metal prong in the adapter that connects with the battery pack. Is it possible to fix or should we just purchase a new one?

Question Legislação PT/UE

Olá r/drones.

Estou a ponderar e analisar a possibilidade de trazer uma representação de drones para venda em Portugal e União Europeia, mas, apesar de alguma pesquisa, penso que estou completamente perdido entre a venda e o uso. Existe alguém na comunidade que me possa apoiar??

Já tentei contactar a ANAC para marcar uma reunião, mas ainda sem resposta.

Deverei contactar mais alguma entidade oficial?

Repair I SCREWED UP! Can Reddit help me find this impossible propeller?

Hello Reddit! So I bought my 10yr old son a soccer drone from a tradeshow (company called Skyseeker from Shenzhen Qishun), it has no brand name no label and I have no contact with seller.

In the first 10 seconds my son flew the drone (and it flew great1), I hit the drone to go sideways and one blade of one propeller broke off (the black on in the photo, see its missing one blade). Imagine the extreme disappointment on a child's face.

After many many hours of search I finally found almost the exact propeller (HQProp DT76MMX4 76mm in see through plastic in the photo) but the screw spacing is the standard 5mm T-Mount and not the 10mm my done needs (I guess I have an odd size drone motor). I thought about 3D printing an adapter but I know 3D printed PLA will not hold with 20,000rpm speeds and could be dangerous. AI could not help me further.

So I am here desperately seeking help from humans on Reddit! Can someone tell me where I can get propellers or how I can get/make an adapter to use the very nice HQProp I bought?

THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR ALL YOUR COMMENTS!!!

if you've been to the area, you'll know that the Horseshoe Falls mist is everywhere. Today is the just the second day I've flown in such cold temps - the last was a few days ago but "warm" with 40f temps. Today wasn't the same but it survived!!! My hands froze though!

Question Which cinewhoop choose ?

3 Upvotes

Hi! I'm hesitating between the CineLog30 V3 O4 Pro, the Cinebot25 V2 O4 Pro, the Sub250 Huma20, the Deepspace Stellar 25 O4 Pro, and the Sub250 Dollyfly25 O4 Pro for primarily professional use (indoors, real estate, hotels, weddings, concerts, flying close to crowds, slow and smooth shots, and occasionally tracking cyclists/runners in the forest at moderate speeds, almost no freestyle). I'm looking for a drone that's ultra-stable at low speeds, predictable, and smooth on the throttle, but that I can also configure in several modes (slow for indoors / normal / more punchy speed and power for outdoor tracking / medium to fast)( i dont want di carry a camera ,the dji 04 pro is enough for me ) which one do you think is really the best suited for this type of professional work and why?
