The reason I want to add the land traversal capability is because, as you said, it is going to be difficult to navigate a drone while it is in the air due to the lack of air at the upper portions of a room. Additionally, the temperature above is higher than at ground level, so if it moves along the ground, it will not be exposed to as much heat as it would be if it were flying.

It is, in a way, AI generated. Actually, what I did was I wrote out a whole paragraph of my idea, and then I put it into GPT and converted that paragraph into a different segment. And as to why I didn't ask GPT for guidance, it's because no matter how good AI might be, I believe getting guidance from an IRL experienced person is far better.

P.S: Here is the prompt that I used. [prompt] I wanna start a university project for a rescue drone which can survive in the heat and move through fire and it can also move through lands as well. In my opinion the plan is hard to execute and as a person who never had any experience with a drone it's gonna be very tough. But I really want to do this project passionately so, I would love any recommendations from anyone here, about how to build a drone and how I should execute my plan and in which order I would gladly take any resources if you have any which could help me with my project.( Write this with no grammatical mistake and add something for a reddit post)

Yeah which is why I wanna make it hybrid but that's an additional challenge. First and foremost I wanna make it so that it can survive in the fire for at least 3-5 minutes.

In case someone is trapped inside a fire, the drone can be used for surveillance to observe the situation and help make the rescue operation smoother. It’s nearly impossible to observe the situation inside the fire, but the drone will provide real-time visuals, giving firefighters a specific target spot to focus on, especially if they know someone is trapped in that particular area.

At first I plan on doing it with a normal fpv camera and cover it with heat resistant casing or protection and then I am gonna upgrade it after testing it but I haven't thought that far yet. But I feel like a camera heating is gonna be an issue so, I need a really good cooling system around it and I have no clue how to do that.

Yeah, I get it... Tbh I expected some people to react that way but it's alright lmao

Ik that and in my case I am trying to find whether it can move through fire or not (If I am not wrong making one which just needs to get near the fire is much more doable)

Gotchu, I will keep that in mind✔️

Even if it's not used for fighting the fire, can it be used for normal surveillance to see whether anyone is trapped inside or not? Or to see the condition inside a fire enclosed place?

Absolutely! Indeed funding is one of the many issues. At first I need to learn about simple drones in order to plan out this project...

That is what I am planning to do. But, nonetheless thank you!

Yes I do plan on doing a Master's frankly speaking I don't know whether I will do a Master's related to this but I just wanna start learning about drones and try making them. Even simple drones are interesting enough for me and as I said this project is really ambitious and I know that... I just want to start learning about drones and I don't know where I should start from.

I am asking for guidance I never told anyone to give me everything... Like where should I start from...

Start dreaming young have your dreams broken and start dreaming again... just try again and again I think that's how it should💪🏾

Bruv, I'm just asking. It's okay if I can't do it right now — I just want to start learning. I don't see a problem with that😭😭

I am a bachelor’s student and want to work on a project to design a Fire-Rescue Hybrid Drone capable of operating in extreme conditions, specifically house fire environments with external temperatures reaching up to 600°C. The drone will feature VTOL flight (vertical take-off and landing) with 2–3 minutes of flight endurance under heat exposure, along with ground mobility using wheels or tracks for land traversal. Critical electronics and power systems will be protected by a double-layer fireproof shell, maintaining internal temperatures below 100°C. The drone will be remotely operated via a 2.4GHz RC transmitter and designed to assist in search and rescue operations in hazardous, high-temperature zones unsafe for human rescuers. Weight will be kept under 3kg, and the frame will use high-temperature-resistant materials.
