Since we received our Bionic Bird, we have been testing out the flight inside the robotics lab and outside. We practiced using the bionic bird app that came with the drone to control the bird's flight, from going up and down to making sharp turns. After flying the drone, we decided to open it up to see how the inside mechanisms work. We carefully separated the body of the drone down the middle after removing the wings and tail. We then used the controller app on our phones to control the drone and see how the different parts move in response to control the drone's flight. We are working on getting another microcontroller and some sensors that we will use in the drone's autonomous flight.
