The Beginner's Guide to Multicopters

by apolak | August 8, 2012 | (20) Posted in Projects

A few months ago I put together this manual to introduce people at my work to the hobby of remote control aircraft, more specifically multicopters. This guide details everything from the basics of remote control radio equipment, hardware selection, flight controllers, tuning and more. Several parts list can also be found later in the guide for inexpensive first-time-builds. I have formatted the guide as a PDF, you must select the image below to open it.


Please leave feedback and suggestions!

A few months ago my website was hacked, but it has since been fixed. During the short period of time that my website had been compromised it may have been blacklisted by certain web filters.
