Summary


Wow, what a long journey. Congratulations, you've made it this far! We've learned all about the components of our platform and how to go about choosing them. We've learned about the significance of each part and how to balance power, weight, and flight times. Finally, we've compiled a list of parts to put together our multicopter. This is the same list I used for my Beastcopter Mk VII. It represents about 30,000 USD in investments in parts, upgrades, and learning over many years. Again though, this only represents a thought process, and this particular multicopter may not suit your needs. You now have the knowledge and tools to calculate your own multicopter using your own specifications to custom-tailor your platform for your purpose.

In the next chapter, we'll learn about assembling our multicopter and getting it ready for its maiden flight.
