Airwood Multifunctional Wooden Drone

Airwood Multifunctional Wooden Drone is an innovative educational aerial device that combines traditional craftsmanship with modern drone technology, featuring a distinctive wooden frame construction that emphasizes environmental sustainability and hands-on learning. This sophisticated four-axis drone system, recognized with an Iron A' Design Award in the Toys, Games and Hobby Products Design category, employs composite basswood board as its primary structural material, incorporating FSC and CARB certified components to ensure environmental responsibility. The drone's modular design philosophy enables users to assemble the frame manually from laser-cut wooden components, fostering both mechanical understanding and creative engagement. With dimensions ranging from 185 to 250mm and an axle-base of 120 to 180mm, the lightweight structure weighs between 75 to 80 grams while maintaining robust flight capabilities, including indoor hovering and aerial photography functions. The system integrates advanced features such as a CMOS 3MP camera capable of 1280x720 resolution, programmable flight controls through Arduino and Mixly platforms, and operates within the 2.402 to 2.480 GHz frequency range. The drone's innovative design addresses the challenge of maintaining structural stability using thin wooden components while incorporating sophisticated AI algorithms to ensure consistent flight performance across various frame configurations. This educational tool exemplifies the intersection of traditional materials with contemporary technology, offering approximately 6-8 minutes of flight time and supporting multiple functionalities including aerial photography and programmable flight patterns, making it particularly valuable for STEM education and hobby enthusiasts.
