Building a DIY drone test rig is essential for safely testing mini-drones without the risk of crashes or component damage. This comprehensive guide shows you how to build a 3D printed drone testing stand that allows complete flight testing in a controlled tabletop environment. This drone test stand was originally built for our LiteWing Drones, but you can use it to test any mini drones.

Our homemade drone test stand design is inspired by the Open Gimbal project but modified for easier assembly and tabletop use. Unlike expensive commercial drone test equipment that costs thousands of dollars, this open-source drone testing rig can be built for under $50 using 3D printed parts and basic hardware. credit: https://github.com/tristandijkstra/OpenGimbal
