Ready to take your robotics experiments to new heights? Follow along as I walk
through the Elev- 8 Quadcopter kit from Parallax. In this two-part series, I'll
assume that you're proficient in robotics and electronics but haven't worked with
a flying platform. The goal is to show you what's involved in terms of cost,
infrastructure, and knowledge. I'll focus on the mechanical build of the platform
in this article, and devote a second article to the electronics and setup.
