I tried printing the design, but I noticed in the slicer that the frame isn't lying flat on the print bed. The underside of the frame is warped. As it is now, the frame can't be printed properly. I already tried to print with support but it did not work. I guess a design problem crept in with the last update on December 1st. Could you please take a look at it?

Thanks for pointing this issue out! I just fixed it now after reading your comment. It was a tiny corner of an improperly deleted face from one of the holes at the bottom. I removed that and reuploaded the STL & STEP file for the frame.

All fixed, the frame sits flat in my slicer now, and turns out right when printed.

Hi, I just bought the prints but I have a bambu lab printer and it only accepts GCODE. I tried to splice myself but couldn't get it right. any chance you could help out?

Hi. All 3D printers require G-code. Import the files into your slicer (3D printing software), place them how you'd like, apply the print settings, and export to your card in g-code format.

Hi there,

Just ordered the files for that as it looks like good fun

I've never done anything with PCBs before so its a bit confusing

I followed the instructions and got to a point where 2 parts are on inventory shortage and 3 parts not selected as they are unmatched components

I have no idea how to find replacement components I'm afraid. Any ideas if I can still make this ?

Max_Imagination

Hello Jack,

Thank you for your purchase of the files and I'm glad to see you've taken on the project.

JLCPCB's component shortage is a common thing. You need to copy the missing component name into Google/ChatGPT followed by "alternative" to search for alternatives of that component. Then copy/paste the name of the alternative component into JLCPCB's search icon on the missing component to find a replacement. If you find it, cool, if not, try entering another alternative part number.

If no matter what - you simply cannot find an alternative, you may order the board assembled without that component and order the component from an online store separately for you to solder it yourself.

Hope that makes sense, and all the best getting it working.

Hi, I have a question is it possible to order a ready-made board with all the components already soldered on? I can’t solder such small parts myself.

Max_Imagination
Max_Imagination

Hi,
It is possible, order it from JLCPCB using their PCB assembly option after uploading the Gerber file: https://jlcpcb.com/?from=MaxImagination

can you tell me how to do this?

Follow my image instructions in the project files folder: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1xS8zgJL_38YicXAhoJAd5wOLjGSVtIGz

Ensure you upload the gerber file to order as you normally would for any PCB, enable "PCB Assembly" at the bottom of the page after where you enter board specs, and proceed from there.

Great work. However time is money and the time to make this makes purchasing one more economical. BUT, great work for those that have time and want the challenge of building this.

Thank you. I completely get where you're coming from. I won't want to stop you from buying a ready-built one for cheaper. This drone project is way more for the learning curve and experience building drones. I get photos every now and then from makers who've succeeded with this exact drone and were happy with the making process.

One can have more fun flying this drone, being proud that they made it.

Cheers.

Hi, if i choose to use JLCPCBS 3d printing service, how much would that cost? What setting do you recommend if i wanted to use jlcpcb? Also is there an easy way to get the MPU 6050 ? Is it possible to use a bigger battery too?

Max_Imagination
Max_Imagination

Hi, on JLC3DP.com it will be $2 for 3D printing the basic cover and frame. Settings are basic: Use the default SLS Nylon for the cover and FDM Plastic PLA for the frame. The MPU6050 can be ordered on almost any big chain electronics online store such as LCSC or Mouser Electronics - or even Amazon. It's easy to obtain if you look in the right places. A bigger battery such as a 300mAh of even 400mAh can be used too with this size drone.

Hi Max, I am currently building your ESP Drone and I purchased the STL files for your drone model. I am having some difficulty however because it is hard to modify STL files and I would like to customize the drone model. Could you please include the .STEP or other relevant object files with it so that I might be able to customize it? Thanks.

Hi Parker,

The modifyable .dwg and Autodesk Fusion (.f3d) files of this drone model have now been added. Please download the model again to receive the two additional files, and happy making!

Best,

Max

Hello I'm a student from another country I'm very interested in your design but because of the language limitation I have some difficulties in buying the parts I need, what I want to know is if I can get a list of additional materials, if you are willing to sell me a gift pack of all the materials that's even better, I'm willing to pay more and cover the shipping costs.

Max_Imagination
Max_Imagination

Hi there.

Thanks for inquiring. I do not ship parts myself. You can acquire parts via the links found in my YouTube video's description to build this drone. If you cannot, I suggest searching on your country's local online stores for those same parts.

Cheers,

Max
