Embedded Flight Software | GPS Sensor | Absolutly crucial sensor on every drone. It help tracks the position of the drone, so more high level control algorithm can be applied to make it fly better. Tracking antenna also needs GPS, since the rationale behind tracking antenna is pointing the head of the antenna with knowing the relative GPS position of the tower and the drone | With unit price of 40$ each (actual price can vary 30 ~ 100 depending on quality and market), we would like to request for 4 or 5 more GPSs https://rotorvillage.ca/foxeer-m10-q250-gps/ or https://holybro.com/collections/gps/products/nano-m8-5883-gps-module or RTK GPS(good ones): | 3 to 4 years if not breaking them | As soon as we get the funding |
IMU Sensor | The even more crucial sensor on a drone than GPS. It tells you the acceleration of motion, rotational motion, etc to help the drone to maintain its proper attitude. Use in both our custome flight control software Zeropilot and Tracking Antenna | 20 $ each, need 5 more | 3 to 4 years | As soon as we get the funding | |
