Greetings! It has been almost a month since my last fundraising, and I would like to report my results.
Almost all parts were delivered from China except for flight controllers. My friends kindly agreed to lend me five spare controllers so I could continue my work.
We have fully assembled three drones. One was fully assembled by my wife, Natalia. She sent it to Victory Drones as her test project for a certificate. Two others will be sent to the frontlines directly.
In fact, Natalia has greatly helped me: she assembled all the frames and motors, leaving me only the soldering and testing part.
I have managed to burn one ESC and one capacitor. Glad that I had spares :)
This time, we did a minimal flight check: we bound a controller and raised the drone 10cm in the air. It was a bit scary in a small room, but we managed!
I hope I will finish before the holidays. We should help UAF in any way possible right now. I am not yet starting another raise, but please donate to any fund you know; it is of the utmost importance right now.
