Alright! Triangles are so cool 
Second prototype lifted 1kg and has a range of about 80cm. I’m optimistic this could do 2kg with some more tweeks and a fully charged battery…
There’s no 3D printed or laser cut parts but I do think this could be made in a makerspace or any garage in fact.
“microwave oven transformers spot welding” can probably be replace by lashing and some sort of resin. There’s some hot-rolled steel section in there that I stick welded but those can probably be made out of wireframe too.
positioning is not yet done, I smashed the encoder during a serial communication software test…
next up:
- battery charger…
- differential gps precision test
