Jameco Challenge: Design Your Own Bot!
 How creative are you? Do you think you could design a robot using a CD or DVD as the main body platform? Try your hand at our CoasterBot challenge this summer. Learn more about how to participate and win prizes!
Enter the Challenge now! Living Dangerously: Designing a Quadcopter By Key Gracey, President of Parallax  ”First blood” occurred when Matt’s Quadcopter flew into his face on Christmas Eve. What sounds like a great opening line for a novel is actually one of the safety incidents recorded during the months of product testing for the ten pound Quadcopter from Parallax. For over a year, the development team analyzed component quality, workmanship and operator error to get their popular drone ready to safely command the skies.
The Parallax team put their lives on the line to test their drone. |
