Sumit Sharma

Sumit Sharma has rich experience in Unmanned systems with specialization in Drones architecture development and testing for different applications. He is experienced in Drone Mechanics, Avionics, Design and manufacturing. In his early career, he was involved in the development and testing of the first approved agriculture drone and later getting it approved by the DGCA. Along with this, he has contributed to the development of a Survey drone for Aerial Surveys. He was also involved in the development of high speed and long range surveillance drones for defence tenders. Sumit has been involved in early agriculture spraying pilot projects and was a part of Aerial Spraying on the Locust which hit Rajasthan in 2020.

Summary

In this chapter, we finished developing a survey drone. The important part of this process is selecting the correct components.

We have seen that a basic airframe can be chosen; however, we can design and improve the aesthetics of the drone as we want. We also studied drone configurations through AeroGCS. We used the Herelink system for telemetry and RC control, and its configuration can be learned through its datasheet. Then, we took a quick look at what we must do after assembling a drone. As mentioned previously, practice makes perfect; the more we study and practice, the more we’ll be close to perfection. Getting into the habit of studying datasheets and integration manuals will be highly beneficial in this regard.
