Kids Start Building and Hone Their Flying Skills

Just a quick note to let everyone know that we got our group of 10 kids together this past Saturday to kick off the project.  We went through the project's phases and goals as well as rules for participation.  Talk about a focused bunch!  From there we broke into three groups; 1) practicing flying on the simulator, 2) building the DJI Flamewheel 550 hexarotor, and 3) flying toy helicpters that team members brought from home.


Teamwork!
 
 
 
Mounting motors to the legs

 
Parents facilitated each station.  We put together some guidelines for the stations including instructions and comment cards to faciliate positive intereactions between team members.
 

 
 
ESC's soldered to the base plate. Motors mounted to the legs too.
 
We wrapped up the day inhaling a pile of homemade cookies (thanks Kerry).  I think all meetings should wrap up that way don't you? 
 
Next week we plan to finish the hexarotor and start testing.  We'll be in the air with the phase 1 hexarotor soon!

  1. Joy and happiness is all i can see around ever since i came in contact with this great man. i complained bitterly to him about me having herpes only for him to tell me it’s a minor stuff. He told me he has cured thousands of people but i did not believe until he sent me the herbal medicine and i took it as instructed by this great man, only to go to the hospital after two weeks for another test and i was confirmed negative. For the first time in four years i was getting that result. i want to use this medium to thank this great man. His name is Dr Oyagu, i came in contact with his email through a friend in UK and ever since then my live has been full with laughter and great peace of mind. i urge you all with herpes or HSV to contact him if you willing to give him a chance. you can contact him through this email oyaguherbalhome@gmail.com or you can also WhatsApp him +2348101755322

Don't be deceived thinking he does not work, i believe if you can get in contact with this man all your troubles will be over. i have done my part in spreading the good news. Contact him through his email and you will be the next to testify of his great work.
