Introduction
The Crazyflie is a tiny quadcopter often referred to as a nano-quad, built using the PCB itself as the frame. Developed solely by open source tools and designed with development in mind.A Crazyflie Nano Quadcopter include a crazyflie and a crazyradio. Developed solely by open source tools and designed with development in mind.E. g. we choose 0603 components (resistors & caps) over 0402 to make it easier to replace components. The voltage regulators are adjustable which makes it possible to change the digital and analog supply voltages simply by changing a couple of resistors.
Packaging list
- Crazyflie control board
- 5 x motor mounts (one as spare)
- 5 x coreless motors (one as spare)
- 5 x CW propellers
- 5 x CCW propellers
- 1 LiPo batter（170mAH）
Hardware Specification
- Powerful 32 bit MCU: STM32F103CB @ 72 MHz (128kb flash, 20kb RAM)
- 3-axis high-performance MEMs gyros with 3-axis accelerometer: Invensense MPU-6050
