You know you've spent a long time on something when your timelapse is 11 minutes... Another 8+ hours and another big step in drone construction. The electronic speed controllers are soldered and installed, and the flight controller is functional. Took me forever to install everything because of how small the holes are in the airframe (if you watch you'll see me pull out a drill a few times). The Pix Mini flight controller is responsive to the GPS and arming switch. I expect another 20 hours before this drone is flight capable but in the meantime it allows me to catch up on audio books...

In addition Guardian and all other drones are now registered with the FAA and can be seen in the first picture.

With the help of Dr. and Mrs. Pandolfi, I have been continuing the construction of my most recent prototype, Gaurdian. We decided on the mini Pixhawk for the flight controller because of its larger memory and 32bit processor. This will allow it to achieve autonomous flight with sense and avoid.
