Intro: The pencil drone
The aim of this project is to demonstrate that ordinary things can fly. All (or almost all) can fly!

To demonstrate this, I selected objects that can be found in any desktop.

What's most ordinary than a pencil and an eraser? Can a pencil fly?

Yeah! Let's prove it!

Take the things and the tools. Here we go!

----------------------------------------------------------------

The reference of commercial components are:

- H107-A03 Main Motor Set

- H107-A43 Circuit Board

- H107-A35 Main Blades

- H107-A24 Battery

- H107-A06 USB Charger

- H107-16 Transmitter

Are cheaper. You can find it in online stores.
