How Drones Fly

Drones use **Newton’s Third Law** of Motion: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. The rotors push air down, and the air pushes the drone up.

Lift

Vertical force opposing gravity

Torque

Opposite spinning rotors cancel rotation

Core Movements (DOF)

PITCH Forward/Backward Tilt

ROLL Left/Right Tilt

YAW Horizontal Rotation

Advanced Equipment & Chassis

Frame Material 3K Carbon Fiber

Unidirectional carbon weave optimized for weight-to-stiffness ratio. Toray T700 fibers are standard for high-G maneuvers.

Energy Source Li-Po 6S (22.2V)

Lithium-Polymer cells with 120C discharge rates to handle sudden current spikes during punch-outs.

Propulsion Gear Polycarbonate (PC)

Props are molded from PC or Glass-Reinforced Nylon for impact resistance and aero-elasticity.

Ground Station & Sensors

RTK-GPS Module

Real-Time Kinematic positioning for cm-level accuracy.

Optical Flow Sensor

Downward facing camera for drift-free indoor hovering.

Barometric Altimeter

Air pressure sensor for precise altitude maintenance.

FPV Goggles (O3 Air Unit)

Digital low-latency HD video link for the pilot.

Critical Flight Safety

Always maintain a **Visual Line of Sight (VLOS)**. Never fly beyond what your eyes can see.

Do not fly over people, crowds, or near airports (5 miles / 8km radius).

Respect a maximum altitude of **400 feet (120 meters)** above ground level.
