🛸 Drone With Only One Motor

This open-source drone uses a single motor and a hinged propeller to control pitch and roll, reducing mechanical complexity while relying on sophisticated software.

Features of the project:
➡️Single-motor flight control
➡️Custom flight controller firmware
➡️Encoder-based motor control
➡️Infrared heading estimation

The project combines 3D-printed mechanical components, real-time control systems, and custom electronics to demonstrate a compact, unconventional drone design. Its simplified mechanics could enable cheaper, smaller, and easier-to-manufacture drones.
