How to Build a Cool & Cheap 3D Printed Mini Drone

This little beast is suitable for both indoor and outdoor flying and thanks to our 3D printers, you'll never run out of spare parts :)

Some people really doesn't know the joy of making things by yourself. Yes, diy things like things takes a lot of fixing and tweaking but the experience and knowing how things work and why they work are more than the money can buy.

I like the vid by the way. XD

Fine work, great design! One of these days I need to get back into drones. I decided to pursue other interests when I felt my lack of a 3D printer was limiting my ability to pursue my ideas...but here it is nearly four years since I got a printer, and it's basically the one thing I _haven't_ done since!

Very nice! I actually got started with 3D printing to create things to enhance my quadcopters. I liked 3D printing so much, that most of my hobby time is now devoted to 3D printing!

Really cool to see u guys promoting FPV !!! It was also the reason i got into 3D Printing back then to print parts for my drones :).

Great video!👍 only thing everyone should do is setting up the flight controller stack before you start soldering anything if you're first starting out

[arnoldzachary]

Wow, I like drones and 3D printers, great build!

[spikekent]

Fantastic! I've been meaning to learn about RC controllers for a long time. I will do it when time allows.

[noliebowtie]

I can't wait to fully build this thing!

It's a shame that some of the parts are out of stock, with some being discontinued. I imagine that some patience and looking for alternative parts will still produce a good drone.

Awesome build, little disappointed the propellers were not 3D printed as wel making this project 100% 3d printed but perhaps there was a good reason. None the less I may have to build myself. Thanks for sharing.

[estremp]

is there an alternative 4 the hglrc micro f4 + 4in1 esc becuase they are sold out in every page

[tennisplayer]

Very cool. Another idea along this one might be a tutorial on how to 3D print parts to up grade the fpv headset for better fit or functionality. Keep this type of content coming and great job.

This was a really simple but useful video would of been very handy when I did my first build simplicity without the technical jargon

[gino]

You guys are awesome geniuses. Way to cool for this wold. 👍👍

[Thefattestman]

im looking at this video now and a lot of the parts are discontinued, what would be good replacements for them? this is going to be my first homemade drone so i still don't know anything about the parts.

[ondrejhalva]

some of parts are not available
where i can buy it

[TotallyNotNuclear]

Great vid! I would recommend printing the prop guard out of petg.

[hoverbotfpv]

Oh dude, if I had known you were a FPV guy I would have bought a Prusa. LOL! Got an Anycubic X but will buy your stuff next machine.

[marianflaig]

Hello just finished my one right now and directly started flying, but i didnt think it would be that fast and crashed ! BE carefully with yours and take much space to learn if you are new to this hobby like me :)

[dCracker]

@Prusa 3D If I scale the frame up to be a bit bigger would I need to change any of the hardware? How much flight time do you get ?

[itsjonnyfpv]

my one doesn't work.
there is anything with my receiver false
pease help meeee
