It is easy for the beginner to start with and has firmware pre-defined in it. While activating or deactivating the
board there is an audio warning from the piezo buzzer of KK 2.1.5.It is the most stable board because it has
inbuilt gyroscope, 6050 MPU, and auto level function. This board has eight motor outputs, five control
inputs, an LCD display, polarity protected voltage sensor input, an ISP header, six-axis
accelerometer/gyroscope, a fuse protected piezo output. The user-defined signals from KK board are
processed by ATMEL 664PA IC and these control signals are passed to the ESC's installed on the frame of the
drone.

9. BRUSHLESSDCMOTOR
Brushless Direct Current (BLDC) motor is a type of synchronous motor that is powered by DC source via an
inverter to produce an AC electric current to drive each phase of the motor. Its construction is simple as
permanent magnet synchronous motor. The advantage of this motor is High speed and electronic control.

Battery 3s-5s LiPo

10. ELECTRONICSPEEDCONTROLLER(esc)
An electronic speed controller is an electronic device used to control the speed of the motor and the
direction also. It follows a speed reference signal and varies the switching rate of field effect transistors. By
adjusting the duty cycle or switching the frequencies of the transistor the speed can be changed.

11. PROPELLERS
These are simply fans which convert the motion of the motor into upward thrust. They are, made up of
flexible fiber to be unbreakable while crash landing.

13. TRANSMITTER&RECEIVER
The Transmitter acts as a controller from the user. It is a radio communicating wireless control
system. The signal from the transmitter is received by the receiver placed on the frame of Drone
through the antenna in a receiver. The signal from a receiver is given to KK board. This board will
send the signal to all electronic speed controller from that speed of the motor is controlled by the
transmitter. The modulation scheme used in between transmitter and receiver is pulse position
modulation (PPM).

15. WORKING
As the battery (Lipo) is plugged into the power distribution board of drone, here camera is also switched ON
for live streaming and capturing pictures. Before this, the Transmitter should be in ON condition, if not
ERROR can occur in FCB. After switching ON the FCB and the Transmitter, the Receiver test is done to
make every channel that is Aileron, Throttle, Elevator, Rudder, Aux equal to " 0 ".Now after the receiver
test, ARM the K.K 2.1.5 board so that all 4 motors rotate with equal orientation and speed. Now increase the
Throttle using Transmitter (controller) to stabilize the motor's speed and take a flight.

29. DRONERULESAND REGULATIONSININDIA
 According to India’s national aviation authority, the Ministry of Civil Aviation, flying a drone is
legal in India, but we recommend being aware of and compliant with the drone regulations listed
below before doing so.
 India’s Directorate General of Civil Aviation(DGCA) announced the country’s first Civil
Aviation Requirements (CAR) for drones on August 27, 2018 to go into effect December 1,
2018.
 Special Travel Considerations Foreigners are currently not allowed to fly drones in India. For
commercial purpose, they need to lease the drone to an Indian entity who in-turn will obtain
Unique Identification Number (UIN) and UAOP from DGCA.

30.  A permit is required for commercial drone operations (except for those in the Nano category flown
below 50 feet and those in the Micro category flown below 200 feet).
Drone pilots must maintain a direct visual line of sight at all times while flying. o Drones cannot be
flown more than 400 feet vertically.
Drones cannot be flown in areas specified as “No Fly Zones”, which include areas near airports,
international borders, Vijay Chowk in Delhi, State Secretariat Complex in State Capitals, strategic
locations, and military installations.
Permission to fly in controlled airspace can be obtained by filing a flight plan and obtaining a unique Air
Defense Clearance (ADC)/Flight Information Center (FIC) number.

31. • Based on our research and interpretation of the laws, here are the most important rules to know for
flying a drone in India. o All drones except those in the Nano category must be registered and issued a
Unique Identification Number (UIN).
Types of drone categorized under DGCA:
 Nano: Less than or equal to 250 grams (.55 pounds)
 Micro: From 250 grams (.55 pounds) to 2kg (4.4 pounds)
 Small: From 2kg (4.4 pounds) to 25kg (55 pounds) Medium: From 25kg (55 pounds) to 150kg (330
pounds)
 Large: Greater than 150kg (33 pounds)

32. OUTCOMES
The Aerial photography / videography drone is used for capturing images and
videos for disasters managements.
With the uses of such drones the disaster management becomes more efficient
and effective.
