17-Year-Old Boy Builds Nigeria’s First Locally made Drone (Photos)

 
A
talented 17-year-old identified as David Opateyibo has built up a
locally-made drone which authorities in Lagos hope to deploy for
security surveillance.

The
drone, a high breed mix of existing drone components and locally
fabricated material, seems to fly normally but David says there is a lot
more room for improvement.

                    
“Aside
from using drones for aerial surveillance, you can also use them for
aerial photography and videography, or for broadcasting, incidence
control or pipeline and power line inspection. You can also use drones
in agriculture, to analyze farm produce,” David said in an interview.
