Abstrac

The present project consists in the construction of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) quadcopter-type, operated by remote control. The quadcopter will be operated by four motors with propellers, located at the edges of the frame. These motors will be controlled by a microcontroller arduino-type.

The project is going to be built with Wi-Fi as the interconnection between the quadcopter and the remote control, which has a range of 2.4 to 2.5 GHz. The instructions for the quadcopter will be sent by means of a cellphone, which is going to have an app with the program to use the cellphone as a remote control

The microcontroller, the Wi-Fi and the motors will be all fed by rechargeable 3.7-volt lithium batteries. It has to operate at a minimum distance of 10 meters. This project will be useful to acquire knowledge about data transmission and the function and operation of various integrated circuits.
