Quadcopter in a 5x5cm PCB
Erdabyz has been working on a quadcopter to fit in a 5x5cm PCB:
This is something I’ve been working on these days. The other day I was thinking about what would be the coolest possible thing you could fit in a 50x50mm 2 sides PCB. How about a quadcopter?

WOW! Now that is a cool piece of Circuit design!
You win. That is the coolest project.
Thats dream project for most of the embedded developers….best of luck buddy!
hehe i said the same idea a while back ;-)
Cool project! But you know that there is already one available (for pre-order) at Seeed, although a little bit larger with 9x9cm?

Yeah, I know those guys since they begun. I lost their tracks back in 2011 or so and I’m glad to see they finally got to production stage. I’m also glad to see that they used the exact same inertial sensors I’m going to try here.
Maybe we could base some of the firmware on theirs, but the initial goal is to develop the firmware on our own for the learning thing.
awesome….winner for size so far if it can fly :-)
hi did you gave detailed information?
Very impressive. I’m not sure the altimeter is useful since I doubt if it can be used outdoors. Maybe a compass will be more useful.
How is the communication between the transmitter and the quadcopter made?
