I am looking for any information on how to build my first drone.

I spent 7 days gathering information, selected components I though would work together, but after that I was criticised by people who said that those components would not match.

Here is my post from reddit for example.


I described there what parts I was going to use and why I picked them.

It seems my logic behind selecting components is incomplete or simply wrong. If you know any books which may cover that topic of selecting components so they match, it will be great.

I studied physics and math, so I think I would be able to handle books with a lot of math and physics.
Thank you

Welcome, agvarelex! :cool:
Things change some fast that books quickly become outdated.
Some persons have experience with what has worked for them and what has not; therefore, they tend to have a strong opinion.
That does not mean that your ideas are necessarily incorrect.

I would recommend you exposing your ideas at this forum, where persons with similar interests enjoy discussing the topic og scratch-building multi-rotor drones:

There, you can also learn about the last regulations, if flying in USA.
