Quadcopters, also known as quadrotor drones, have become increasingly popular in the global market in recent years. Our factory has successfully shipped large volumes of quadrotor PCB projects to Israeli customers, receiving excellent feedback. In fact, orders for 2018 were projected to reach over 50,000 sets. We specialize in providing one-stop PCB services for quadrotors – from PCB design and PCB manufacturing to PCB assembly.
What is a Quadrotor?
A quadrotor is a type of multirotor helicopter that is lifted and propelled by four rotors. Unlike fixed-wing aircraft, quadcopters are classified as rotorcraft since their lift is generated by a system of rotors. This design makes them highly versatile and widely used for aerial photography, hobby drones, industrial inspections, and more.
PCB Design and Components for Quadrotor
The structural rack of the quadcopter is constructed using durable electric tail pipes and pipe bases, combined with high-quality hard discs. For propulsion, the advanced 2212 KV930 motor is used, paired with positive and negative propellers such as the highly regarded EPP1045, which has an excellent reputation in the German market.
From a PCB perspective, the flight control board is the core component. It manages the output of each motor, adjusting the tilt of the rotor plane to control flight direction. The principle is straightforward: by modifying the RPM of each motor, the quadrotor can ascend, descend, or maneuver in different directions.
Challenges in PCB Design and Cost Control
One of the biggest challenges in quadrotor PCB design and manufacturing lies in the control system. High-quality GPS ICs remain expensive, making cost optimization a key focus for manufacturers. To ensure cost efficiency, our team carefully sources components and designs PCB layouts that balance performance and price.
For example, we upgraded the remote control system by adapting an FT06-C unit, transforming it from a 6-channel to an 8-channel system, with two additional proportional channels and an LCD display for real-time parameter monitoring. The use of a PPM code board further enhances the control performance.
Advanced Quadrotor Features
In more advanced quadcopters, the flight controller is equipped with a transmitter for two-way communication with the handheld controller. Additional sensors, such as GPS, gyroscope, compass, and barometer, are integrated into the PCB system to improve flight stability and navigation accuracy.
With optimized PCB design and reliable component selection, we are able to deliver quadrotor solutions at competitive prices without compromising on quality.
