Assembling the Drone
The next morning.
When Tang Rui woke up from the sofa, the sun was already high above his head.
He picked up his phone.
It was already 10:30 in the morning.
“Suck!”
He drew a deep breath of cold air.

He had been tired all day yesterday.
At night, he was thinking about the drone when he unknowingly fell asleep on the soft sofa.
In the end, his entire body ached to the bone.
Especially his waist. The moment he stood up, he felt very relieved.
Tang Rui stood and moved his body. After feeling the soreness of his cervical vertebra and waist, he felt very ball-aching.
Although making aircraft models was not a physical job, great damage to the cervical spine, spine, and waist could be caused if one had to bend down all the time.
Notwithstanding the high-intensity, long-term work like yesterday, if he did this often, something would happen sooner or later.
“If only I could add points to my body.”
At this moment, he wished that his cheat could add points to his body like Deep Blue.
Wait a minute…
Should he create a massager and try upgrading it?
Forget it.
That would be something for later.
Let’s go eat first. I’m starving.
He spent five minutes washing up and changing clothes.
Tang Rui took his phone and left the house.
The shop that sold breakfast was very close to his house. There were several shops outside the neighborhood.
They arrived at the familiar breakfast shop.
As usual, he ordered a bowl of rice, two steamed buns, a plate of pickled vegetables, and a herbal egg.
As he ate, he opened the Little Po Station app and clicked on the background.
“Om nom nom…”
“Where’s UP? He didn’t leave the internet cafe. Who said that he had to update daily for three months? It hadn’t even been a month, so why did it stop?”
“The melon seeds and snacks are ready. I’m waiting for UP to do a handstand to wash my hair.”
These messages gave Tang Rui a splitting headache.
He had indeed forgotten to update the video yesterday, and he had also forgotten that he had bragged that he’d post a daily update for three months.
It was very awkward now.
He had bragged, so he definitely had to fulfill his promise.
Was he really going to do a handstand and wash his hair?
The herbal egg in his mouth lost its fragrance when he thought of the scene of the death of the society.
He put down his phone.
It wasn’t a matter he should bother for now.
At most, after the drone was done, he would start a live broadcast to fulfill his promise.
When Tang Rui returned home, he started to rummage through boxes and cabinets.
Although he had fallen asleep when he was thinking about the problem yesterday, he had some ideas.
The drone was not something that could be done with a pat on the head. It had to be combined with reality.
Even if he had a cheat, he could not escape from reality.
What was this reality?
The reality was that he had no money.
A real drone would contain all kinds of equipment inside.
For example, high-definition cameras, infrared thermal imaging cameras, synthetic aperture radars, laser radars, and multispectral lenses.
Discounting the fact that he lacked all that equipment, he still needed the most basic ones.
Without optical cameras and radars, what drone would that be?
In addition, the entire avionic system also needed to be equipped with onboard computers, communications, radar, navigation, fire control, flight control, and many other modules, not to mention the motors, which was the most difficult thing to deal with.
If he didn’t have the system interface.
Even if he was given more money, he could forget about making a real drone by himself.
However, it was different with the system interface.
He definitely did not have the money to buy the equipment and difficulties listed above, but he could upgrade and strengthen them through the system interface.
However, the system interface could upgrade and strengthen items, but it also required something.
That was why he started to rummage through the cabinets and cabinets to find substitutes for this equipment after he returned.
During his years in university, he had tinkered with a lot of things.
There were all kinds of amazing people in the aeromodelling club, and no one had much money.
If he needed accessories, he could only do it himself.
After all, the school had a laboratory. The equipment inside could be used, and they could even get some materials.
Therefore, in the past few years, he had also made a lot of good things.
Crash!
He took out two large boxes from the cabinet.
Then, he took out an A4-sized circuit board from a box.
There were many wires connected to the circuit board. On the other end of the wires were the transmitter and receiver.
“I finally found it.”
Tang Rui blew away the dust on the circuit board, his face full of smiles.
The full name of this thing was the S-band micro-power phased array radar.
This type of radar belonged to the FMCW (Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave) type.
Not only did it not look good, but you couldn’t even buy it on the market.
He got his hands on it only because he had borrowed it from a graduate student when he was in the university’s aeromodelling club.
Later on, that senior brother asked him out for a drink. When he was bragging after drinking, he gave this thing to him.
He didn’t know if that senior brother regretted it or not.
Anyway, after that time, that senior never drank with him again.
Now, that senior was doing research and development in the China Electric Power Science and Technology Department. His technical level was quite impressive.
He had strayed off topic.
Since the phased array radar was done, the other equipment was even easier to deal with.
The engine had been directly dismantled from his precious airplane model.
These were two real jet engines.
The standard thrust was 80N (8kg), with an RPM of 5-18k, with a fuel consumption of 200g/min.
The skeleton was easy to deal with. First, he would use some junk parts to build it, then add points to upgrade it.
The same method was used for the optical equipment. First, the camera was installed, and then the points were added later.
The equipment was nothing.
The real problem was avionics integration.
To others, the difficulty of combining all these pieces together was no less than designing a new system.
However, it was just a matter of strengthening the body for the system panel.
Tang Rui took the strengthened airplane model from last night to the workbench.

After a round of strengthening, a new attribute list appeared on the interface.
However, the EXP bar was still not upgradeable.
Crack!
Tang Rui did not hesitate at all and directly dismantled this exquisite airplane model.
Batteries, motherboards, turbines, and cockpit.
Other than the entire body of the aircraft model, all other parts were removed.
Then, he roughly expanded the engine exhaust at the back of the body and stuffed the two turbine engines inside.
It was really forced in.
The body was deformed.
However, these were all small problems, so he pretended not to see them.
Bang.
The wires connected to the radar’s main board were cut off, and he stuffed the transmitter, receiver, and transceiver into the body.
Then, these wires were casually Soldered on the edge of the CPU main board without being connected to the circuit.
This was his intentional use of the ‘while’s
Once it was connected, his CPU would be useless. At that time, he would not even be able to start the turbine engine.
At the moment, he did not need this drone to have any functions. The only requirement was that it could fly.
Therefore, the other components were not important. The most important things were the flight controls and engines.
After putting all these things in, there was almost no space left in the body.
Tang Rui looked at it, adjusted it a little, moved some space, and stuffed the battery plug and flight control board in.
This time, the fuselage was completely stuffed.
The camera could only be placed in the driver’s seat, and the lens could only be pointed at the sky.
It wasn’t completely useless, per se, but it could use a bit of improvement.
“Done.”
Tang Rui snapped his fingers, very satisfied with his masterpiece.
But at that moment… the panel on the airplane model attracted him.
