Drone from locally sourced materials

A locally made drone?? Who would have thought it were possible.
From the Federal University of Technology Owerri, faculty of Engineering, we under took various projects as a final year student. We as a group engaged in a the making of a drone from materials locally available such as woods and some scraps from other damaged or so called spoiled device.

It wasn't easy as faults from here and there kept reoccurring but thanks to our supervisor and other friendly engineers, colleagues and well wishers whose words of encouragement kept the project going.

Finally after several trials, all units now operated in harmony and then we went for a spin. The project defense day came and it was a success.
