Study Notes

Drone Propulsion System

  • A key component of a drone's propulsion system is the motor, which converts electrical energy into mechanical energy.

Flight Controller

  • The flight controller is a crucial component of a drone, responsible for controlling the drone's movements, stabilizing its flight, and executing commands.

Obstacle Avoidance

  • Ultrasonic sensors are commonly used in drones for obstacle avoidance, detecting objects and preventing collisions by emitting high-frequency sound waves and measuring the time it takes for them to bounce back.
