copter = helicopter, use drone. blanch is not the correct term, use to tin which is widely used. Flat cable is used but I beleive ribbon cable is more common (not sure) Unclear sections (did not understand in russian neither, coming from an unadviced reader it might be usefull to clarify those points) - l.61 "the red and black wires are to be tinned on both ends using tweezers" (did you mean soldering iron?) - l.82 "disconnect the power and move yellow jumper to the other tweezer" (did you mean pins) - l.145 "thus, it will be clear which motor is controlled" (unsure if by going through the procedure we activate the motors individually or by setting the throttle to 10% we simply see the direction of spin as it's slow) not linked to the proof reading: do you power the rgb strip directly from the raspberry pi with pin 40 (gpio 21) ?because it can be dangerous as the led strip is drawing x mA or even x A, and the RPI is not designed to withstand such currents (I beleive not more than 500mA), be carefull :o
Clever
"Clever" is an educational constructor set of a programmable quadcopter that consists of popular open source components, and a set of necessary documentation and libraries for working with it.
The kit includes a Pixhawk/Pixracer flight controller with the PX4 flight stack, a Raspberry Pi 3 as a controlling onboard computer, and a camera module for performing flights with the use of computer vision, and a set of various sensors and other peripherals.
The same platform was used for creating many "large" projects of the Copter Express company, for example, drones for autonomous pizza delivery promotion events (Samara, Kazan); a drone for coffee delivery at the Skolkovo Innovation Center, a autonomous quadcopter with charging station for site monitoring and security, winning drones in Robocross-2016, Robocross-2017" competitions, and many others.
To learn how to build, configure, pilot and program a Clever autonomous drone, use this gitbook.
If you have studied our gitbook, but have not found an answer to your question, write to our support chat, and our specialists will be happy to answer you: https://t.me/COEXHelpdesk.
We also have a chat for programmers coding for PX4, autonomous navigation indoors, and drone swarms https://t.me/DroneCode.
