Interested in building your own drone? Shyam Vora of Maker's Asylum, which is organising a drone-making workshop in the city, gives a low-down on the mechanics of the flying machine 

Drones are easy to build
Almost anybody can make a drone. Yes, really! One doesn't require great educational qualifications for this. Our drone-making workshop has been designed in such a way that anyone can take part in it. The instructors wouldn't be going into the details and technicalities of electronic circuits and coding. Instead, we will be teaching participants about the different components involved in assembling a drone, and how they could be used to play around or modify the machine. They will eventually be creating a palm-sized drone.
