Another template for AR. Drone 2.0 pilots, this template was made specifically for AR. Drone 2.0 outdoor hull, also I already created a new category for this. Started with the crash of my drone that resulting in a total loss of my previous NASA theme hull as you can see at the photo below, so I began this Whispercraft inspired hull project. Luckily the drone base itself were not damage at all because of the crash. Whispercraft is a fictional future helicopter from The 6th Day movie, starred by Arnold Schwarzenegger. When it came on coloring step, I thought it’ll be good if I color it with US Coast Guard theme. Then I search for US. Coast Guard helicopter, and found the Blackhawk then I copy some details on to this custom hull.

This template specially made for AR Drone 2.0 pilots who want to customized their drone hull. It is when my hobbies merged together, piloting AR Drone 2.0 and paper modeling. It’s started when Parrot gave me a unit of the new version 2 drone as a gift for my involvement in their promotion campaign, which is a paper model contest in this site in July 2012. Since that time I decided to do this hobby and now I have two drones. I made a 1:3 AR Drone 2.0 with both outdoor and indoor hull model for that contest. That one third model is not accurate so I made a new one with 1:1 scale by measuring the original hull, so it will fit into the real drone. I made the template last night, print it today and build it just now. I took some picture of it while it still on the ground and while flying as well. I took pictures while the drone in auto-hover mode on quite strong breeze, but I had to do that before it’s getting dark (5 PM). Please understand this hull can not function like the original hull. It can not protect the battery and specially the front mounted camera on impact or in a crash, it's light weight but it is not strong enough. Make sure to tighten the hull to the drone base because it can loose by the strong wind, you can use magnet sheet but I use double adhesive tape. Once again use it by understanding your own risk, I can not guaranty it will work to everybody. I also add blank patterns on the the last pages.

Hi all, it;s been more than a month I had not update any new Paper Replika original model. Now I am back again to make more cool paper model template, let's start with this thing. Do you know on this July Paper Replika will had 4th years online? Yes Paper Replika will has its anniversary on July 17th. This year we got a sponsor to held a paper model recolor contest. Our sponsor is Parrot with its latest cool RC quadcopter toy, AR Drone 2.0. This quadcopter is very awesome. it has 2 built-in camera on front and on the bottom. It can be controlled with I-pad, I-phone and Android devices (smartphone, tablet, etc). The coolest thing is the patented "Absolute Control" mode, to make it easier to control, even my six years old daughter can control it! It can record your flight via Wifi to your smartphone or to USB flashdisk.
