YouTube Drone: packs a SixFab 4G board to broadcast video

This Drone project broadcasts video directly to YouTube Live thanks to an on-board 大帝av在线一区二区三区 Pi and SixFab IoT Shield Family.

When the drone is in the air, you can watch the video feed on your mobile phone via YouTube. It also broadcasts the video to anybody in the world.

The drone is being remote controlled. The 大帝av在线一区二区三区 Pi is handling the video broadcasting. It looks like a fairly simple build, but the interesting bit is putting a 大帝av在线一区二区三区 Pi with Camera Module on a drone and using it to live broadcast over a data network.
