Dronecoria

Hi all
I'm glad to present you a video of an artistic project that I made one year ago:

Dronecoria (dronechory): an aerial platform for seed dispersal via nendo dango seed balls, for one-click reforestation.

Agro-hacking brazilian rainforest dispersing local seeds with drones.

Wiki with documentation of the process (spanish):

This was just a proof of concept, I would like to build one cabable of carry at least 3 kilos of seeds ;)

But I don't have economical resources for build this kind of expensives multicopters with big payload :(

  • good job. Respect !!

  • Have you considered something like FireFLY6? It's a possible solution or an idea on a hybrid copter/airplane (VSTOL) design. Something to consider.

  • Do you have more pictures of the seed delivery system? I'm trying to see how you're dropping individual seed bombs.

  • Nice video Lot!

    Yeah, perhaps a fixed wing is a better option for big payloads. We've been building big airframes with the techniques you've seen at the fablab, so perhaps we can design something together. Let's talk about this!

  • This is a great application although I wonder why a 'copter is used?  Fixed wing planes carry more, are cheaper and fly further.  Of course fixed-wing requires more take off and landing space.
