$50

Intern

This amount will be used for certain parts responsible for the communication from the drone to the ground. Some of these parts may be the drone camera, VTX (video transmitter), or any antennas on the drone. Donors at this level will receive a personal thank you email.

$100

Engineer

This amount will be used to construct the frame of the drone. Our PA12 + Carbon Fiber filament costs around $88 per unit, therefore this donation will account for half of the drone frame. Donors at this level will receive a personal thank you email and a team photo.

$250

Lead Engineer

A donation of this amount will account for the large LiPo battery we are using to power our drone. The battery is the most important part of the drone because it provides power for all necessary functions such as take-off, hovering, payload deployment, and the motors keeping the drone in the air. Donors at this level will receive a personal thank you email, a team photo, and a thank you on our website.

$500

Project Manager

A donation of this amount will account for multiple pieces of hardware required for the drone and for part testing. These include a power meter for our video transmitter, battery chargers/ dischargers/ receivers, controllers, and the FPV goggles our pilot will use. Donors at this level will receive a personal thank you email, a team photo, a thank you on our website, and their company name/logo on our website.

$1,000

Chief Engineer

A donation of a thousand dollars would help in all areas of the drone. Most importantly, it could cover the cost of all motors, propellers, electronic speed controllers, and testing specific to these parts. Donors at this level will receive a personal thank you email, a team photo, a thank you on our website and their company name/logo on our website, and a name/logo on the frame of our drone.
