We saw that manned flying bicycle last week. Let's see something small.

This is already mass production in china. The price maybe you can not imagine.

At April 28th, our chinese team have the first Dronecode conference in Beijing. We're glad to Chris Anderson join in this. I'm writing this blog to remember that day.

This story is from April 12, Anderson asked me organize a developer meetup while he arrived in beijing.

I think maybe it's a great opportunity to expand the influence of Dronecode in china this time. You know that although Chris is a good friend with chinese people, but he's not always in china anyway. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

So, I confirmed with Chris that organize a full meeting.

It just two weeks to prepare. I have lots work to do, find speakers, design event pages, find a place, and find medias. I finally did it at April 28th. Actually, I can't belive it until now.

Here is some photos:

This event happened in Beihang University, here is in Prof Quan's lab, they have a great talking.

Looks like I can't add more photos in this post, It's very late in china, I'll update later.

Here is Shanghai Mushroom Maker Space, funded by DFRobot and Intel. This maker space wins lots of competition.

They certainly good at drone. At the end of January, a drone workshop started in here.

There was seven high school students joined in this workshop. After two days, they will have their own copter based on pixhawk.

Instructor is a former developer of Ehang. I forgot to take his picture.

It's a successful workshop, all students built his own copter very well. This era is very amazing. I can't imagine that when I was young.

With growing popularity of WeChat in China, mostly companies which focus on Social Media Marketing are choosing to setup a permanent presence on this platform with a subscription account. Subscription account allows post one massage include few articles to subscribers per day. Users could easy to share these article to others. So, it's the best marketing tool now and it's free.

Chinese ArduPilot users will make ArduPilot ecosystem more awesome in the near future.

Hello Everyone, long time no see. I'm the webmaster of the ardupilot chinese site.

In Sep 2015, I was been invited to join the First Session of the National Drone Education Alliance of China in Chengdu, Sichuan.

There was fifteen vocational colleges from all over the country join this meeting, try to find a practical syllabuses. Organizer of this meeting is a professor of Chengdu Technological University, he has confidence in ArduPilot, but other teachers do not know what that means. So this meeting do not have any direct result.

But now, more and more university include these colleges start to pay attention to ArduPilot. In industry field, ArduPilot customization business start to show up.

The Chengdu goverment develops drone industry vigorously. I'm trying to coordinate with them oganize a competition base on ArduPilot at end of June.
