You've had the opportunity to build lots of different types of robot, so now let's end with the one that can be truly amazing, a robot that can fly.
Note
Before we start, there are a number of safety warnings to be considered. Of course, never fly near people or buildings. Also, be very careful about flying outside your viewing range. In many countries, there are restrictions on where and when you can fly a quadcopter. Some countries, including the United States, require you to register your quadcopter.
It is also important to note that this chapter is not designed to be a complete step-by-step guide to the construction of a quadcopter for flying. That would take many chapters. This chapter is designed to get you started if you consider building a quadcopter that can be controlled using the Raspberry Pi Zero. In this chapter, you'll learn about the following topics:
Building the basic quadcopter platform
Interfacing Raspberry Pi Zero with the...
