      @Afrikleo I like the idea and concept of the "drone car" avoiding traffic jams with just taking off. My second favorite is the bamboo drone. But all of them are unique and were made with a lot of creativity.

      Sorry to disappoint you, but “having the chances” is absolutely not the problem here.
      I have worked in several Sub-Saharan African countries (mainly Sierra Leone, Gabon, Nigeria, Cameroon, Guinea Bissau and Congo Brazzaville) and work there is frustrating beyond belief even when all the “chances” are there. Trying to get ANYTHING done is an absolute struggle, from respecting shift schedules and deadlines (😂), to stealing everything that isn’t nailed down (and sometimes even what IS nailed down), to the general lack of anything that could even remotely be considered as “regularity”.
      People don’t come to the shifts, they disappear, their tools disappear, tools break immediately, when you teach somebody how to use a tool you need to repeat it 1000x times, if there are jobs that require independent maintenance (or even maintenance in general) you’re just done for.
      Yes, they learn how to make do with what they have…. But that’s because their way of doing or not doing everything else forces them to the end of the line, where they are literally forced to make do.

      ​@@A_Stereotypical_Heretic That´s wrong, all of those drones seams to have DIY parts on board, many of those parts I know and can easily identify 100%.
      There might be only ONE exception, the one at 5:5 might (possible) be made from parts from another drone but its hard to tell because of the shell, even thought it might be its a rebuild but can as well have all DIY parts.
      P.s. How do I know, I have been custom building drones from all kind of use and heavy lifters for cinema cameras for tens of years.
      Your arrogant comment is so unbelievable disrespectful, you coming from complete different situation with much better access to resources talking shit to people that ere not there at all, its really lame.
      They really need to be creative and resourceful minded finding a way to do what they dream of doing with out the possibilities you have, you just by opening Ebay or what ever or walk to the store buying what ever you need talking this shit is just plain arrogant and Lame.
      Your comment just plane arrogant, lame and disrespectful.

    Rather than using wood and broken plastics they should look into reusing and repurposing high density polymer ethylene or HDPE. This material is commonly found in many plastic containers for consumer products like laundry soap/bleach/milk jugs, shampoo/conditioner/drink bottles. It's easy to melt down at low temps, I've seen people use small toaster ovens for small projects. (Outside of course, it can get smokey😆) Plus, it can be welded, it floats in water, comes in numerous different colors or translucent and it's extremely versatile. This won't biodegrade like wood does so it's a much more practical material for drones or any other ROV'S.
    Just thought I'd pass on something that I've picked up from others. ✌😄👍

    This was interesting in an artistic kind of way but motors, batteries and wires can be found anywhere. What im really curious about is the flight controllers and power management boards that they are using, if they salvaged radio components from other remote controlled devices and repurposed or if anyone is putting together these things from their basic parts.
    Brushless DC motors require their own power distribution boards to time the location of charges in the motor coils, each pulling it further around 360deg to full rotation, its usually 3 phase, and so far the power to weight ratio is much higher for brushless motors vs the classic brushed cheapo motors (you see a few in this video).
    Constructing a power distribution or flight controller board from spare parts and then getting it to work with spare transmitter/receivers is where its at.

      The United States are already ahead in the game. China is there. Europe is in. If Africa should get in the game, should they just buy from one of those markets like everything else, or should they try and figure things out for themselves too?
      Despite them lacking the infrastructure, I say that they are doing a damn good job figuring out things for themselves.
      If they can get it right, they can also put themselves in the market for selling technology rather than buying.

    Drones are cool and quite an easy/fun DIY build. Something I enjoy doing. Some of those look promising. Some are obvious scams which are sometimes in these videos.
    I want to mention that the Zipline Drone Delivery Service operates from Rwanda and delivers blood and medical stuff to rural areas.
