Summary

In this chapter, we have learned how we can assemble a basic drone or quadcopter. We have also learned about the aerodynamics of flying drones, some rules of not crashing drones, and the security protocols of flying drones.

In Chapter 3, Preparing Your Drone for Flying, we will learn how we can configure and tweak our quadcopter with proper modules and software to make it ready to fly, and then fly our first drone. I hope that will be really exciting for you. Let's start building and flying the quadcopter in Chapter 3, Preparing Your Drone for Flying.
