      Hey ThunderSpark,

      My drones would have four propellers that they’d use to fly. Each of these would be powered by a light but really fast motor and by varying the power from each motor we’d be able to control where the drone flies too.

      For example if we gave the back motors a little more power than the front motors then the drone would tip forward and fly forwards. Some clever electronics would help us out on this one…so all we’d need to do is push a joystick forwards, backwards, left and right!!
