A Tribute to the Third Prototype

This video is a tribute to our HDP03. Alvaro and I feel that we have developed everything possible to do in a home garage, using only hobby parts and inexpensive components. That was the challenge, so we believe the mission has been accomplished! I can easily say that we had so much fun and learned a lot from this aircraft. It was intensive R&D with lots of hands-on activities and trial-and-error approaches, but in the end, we succeeded. This aircraft flew a lot, beautifully and safely. I'm very proud, not just of the vehicle itself, but for everything we've planned and developed, such as the flight panels, telemetry interfaces, joystick control, and much more. All these features, plus body protections like the plexiglass and the wire mesh around the cockpit, have pushed the aircraft to its weight limit. So, there's no more room for additional creations inside this beautiful toy. Therefore, I think it's time to retire this unforgettable flying machine. But I wouldn't do this without making a video with the best shots of the HDP03 flights!

A galera aqui pedindo configuraçao e tal.. o marcelo sabe da responsabilidade que é esse tipo de projeto... imagina a quantidade de quedas e acidentes que ja teve antes de chegar nessa versão...

como a ideia do projeto e recreativo eu acredito que ele va disponibilizar o projeto quando tiver certeza a segurança. com certeza tera um preço. tomara que acessível.

Mate if you have done all the work on putting this together to put a website up, it's important to share the information in a detailed way and not just show off. For those of us that want to build one, you could save us some time.

You would'nt by chance be willing to share your circuit and code and explain how it connects would you? I am stumped at this point of how to hard wire the joysick and throttle to my autopilot (aka flight controller). TY!

Hey Marcelo, any chance I could get the schematics for your frame? I want my local metal shop to help me build it. Happy to purchase if that works. I want to try to build something like you have here 😀
