What does a modular design do?

Posted by Hex Air Robot on February 28, 2013 at 1:24am

a modular design makes HeX adaptable from a quadcopter to a hexacopter even to a triple-rotor copter as the following picture shows

And also, we hope the modular design makes it friendlier to users because the complexity of putting a drone together is being brought down so that HeX is more accessible not just for hobbyists but also to more individuals in the future.

3d, air, cnc, cutting, drone, hex, laser, robot, printing, router

The team with HeX is on a program called Haxlr8r- an international hardware incubator which will help us polish this prototype during the period from January to April 2013 and then bring us to US to have a demo day and show up in Make Fair during May this year. After that, we are going to start the sell on Kickstarter.

Cool idea, if they have some kind of quick connect/release it would also make for very quick and easy field repairs, just bring a couple of more motor pods along instead of swapping props etc.
