Autonomous Drone
Hexacopter &Â Quadcopter
Welcome to Autonomous Drone USF 2019. Starting from August 2018, we’re proud to present our custom-built & programmed drone in Hexacopter and Quadcopter designs. Our products are built with quality materials and the latest technologies to meet the industry standards. Keep reading to learn more, and reach out with questions.

Inventory
Electric Grid & Power Line inspection products
Made for electrical grid and power line inspection, the team's autonomous drone have many features and capabilities to suit the power industry. Features may include: autonomous flight path, auto-leveling, camera and video capture capability, heat detection, object anti-collision, and weather proof. The team have made their drones 100% customizable by buying/assembling each individual part (frame, motors, ESC's (electronic speed controllers), battery, flight controller, transmitter, receiver, camera, thermal camera, Raspberry PI, camera gimbal, accelerometer, gyroscope, sensors, etc). The team have researched and selected the best parts to assemble our drones. The USF autonomous drone team is proud of their designs.
