We all love drones. We all love cake. And we all love Raspberry Pi. What better way to spend an afternoon than to kick up at my mate Ben’s house, borrow his faster internet and combine all of those things.

For my birthday, Ben James gave me some geeky goodies including a uBlox NEO-6M GPS module.

We have also shown that it can be adaptable to any circumstance and any user or their medium of control.

The first prototypes we put together used an Arduino, and it was with these first prototypes that we had many problems with the motors.

Despite the fact that it didn’t make it into the final model, it was a valuable tool for prototyping, developing and testing our ideas before applying them to the robot.
