The challenge

Design and prototype an integrated guided aerial vehicle with the ability to drive from plane surface to air.

The solution

As an aerial vehicle is required to spy the enemy battalions and to spoof their troops, we can perform a bio-mimetic from birds. They are most common aerial creatures, and we designed a drone named "Ornithopter' which will be most suitable for this purpose. It uses a micro-controller (CC3D/Raspberry Pi) that works on the signal from the radio transmitter and relays the signal to the four motors which are powered using a Li-Po battery.
