Questions

How big is the BritneyDrone PCB?

It measures 27.9 × 109 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the BritneyDrone use?

18 parts, built around the AP63203WU and TX 1. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the BritneyDrone KiCad files?

From the cornellmotionstudio/BritneyDrone repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/P2.kicad_pcb and its schematic hardware/P2.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the BritneyDrone design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
