## TODO
* [ ] Matrix panel subsystem
* [x] Rewrite PWM esc control system in driver
* [ ] Does it fly?
* [ ] Does it fly? (No it didn't)
* [x] Power distribution system (for matrixes and mcu's)
* [x] Test physical controller
## Testing the drone(V1)
The first test of the drone went horribly wrong.
<video controls src="../PXL_20250604_121528011(1).mp4" title="Title"></video>
### What went wrong
* The drone was not balanced
* The drone was a bit too heavy
* The drone didn't have good footing to the ground
* Motors recalibrating themselves at some startups (Last startup that didn't happen)
* The drone arm was too weak to resist the impact of the motors
* The batteries weren't fastened inside the drone
### Improvements for next design
* Proper legs so the drone doesn't fall over during takeoff
* Lighter design while being as strong as possible with the least amount of material
* A power switch because everything instantly starts once it gets power and that could be dangerous with extremely fast spinning propellors.
* Fastened batteries

### The damage

One matrix board got a few ripped of leds and capacitors but I think I am able to repair that.

2 ESC's and motors got completely tangled wires. I expect them to still work since they where still spinning after the impact.
3/4 arms got ripped off due to the crash.

Luckily we placed cardboard under the drone incase something would happen. The propellors completely mauled the cardboard away where it hit.
Now that the drone is ripped into several pieces I will be abandoning this design and start from scratch on a second design.
