A drone built on a custom-made PCB that follows your hand orientation!

• There is a hidden custom-made PCB inside a glove that the pilot wears
• The pilot then simply tilts their hand in the intended direction of flight
• Using an onboard accelerometer, and a flex sensor, an ATMEGA328P chip is able to identify its orientation, and the requested throttle level
• Using an onboard high power radio module, the glove sends radio signals to the drone
• The drone then reads in the hand orientation coordinates through a radio on the drone's PCB
• It then feeds those values into a PID loop, which processes the results, and outputs the appropriate RPM for each motor in a PWM signal
• The PWM signals are then sent to ESC's, which draw current from the battery and spin the motors up!

• The PCB's were made using the EasyEDA PCB editor, and ordered through JLCPCB
• The PCB Components were ordered through LCSC Electronics
• Everything was hand-soldered, and programmed manually

• It was flying perfectly in my school's field at a few hundred feet of height
• Then, when coming in for landing, I may have descended too fast, and landed harshly on one of the arms
• The arm broke off the drone, and it's currently not in flying condition
