COMMUNITY : FORUMS : TECH

Techpod is this really cool project on Kickstarter, its an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) for amateurs and pro-level flyers who want to do FPV flying (First- Person-View). You'll find me (mhkabir98) at RCGroups and DIY Drones and I have been following this particular project for months and am very earnest for it to succeed.

Techpod is a -

"A high performance remote control airplane for first person view (FPV) flying and the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) hobbyist. Designed from the ground up to have an enclosed pan and tilt camera mounted in the nose for a completely unencumbered point of view. All wrapped up in a super slick fuselage with high aspect ratio wings, a high efficiency airfoil and room to swing up to a 12 inch propeller."

The designer, Wayne Garris is from Seattle, WA. I have known him for about a month now and would like his project to succeed. He works 50 hours a week to support his family and still finds enough time for designing UAVs. If anyone here is interested ,please support him by pledging something on his Kickstarter. You can get more info on Techpod at the website

You can pledge whatever amount you want at his : Kickstarter Link

An appeal to fellow instructablers to help Wayne can meet his $45,000 goal and start producing his Techpod kits for everyone across the world.

If you want more info, PM me and I'll forward you Wayne's contact details.
