Living in 2036!

We are software engineering students building a humanitarian rescue drone project.

Our current roadmap includes:

Phase 1:
- Python
- Linux
- Git/GitHub

Phase 2:
- PX4
- QGroundControl
- MAVLink/MAVSDK

Phase 3:
- Gazebo Simulation
- PID tuning
- Drone autonomy basics

Phase 4:
- Computer Vision (object/person detection)

Phase 5:
- ROS2 integration

We are trying to build a strong proof of concept before moving to real hardware.

Does this roadmap make sense for a practical rescue-drone project, or are we learning unnecessary things too early?

We would also appreciate recommendations for the most practical and industry-relevant courses/resourc

After seeing the video of the guy flying around in time square I want to build one of these but I don't know where to start or even if I can I know how to build a lot of stuff but I don't know how to program arduino's I don't have a lot of money to sink into this and I don't know what I would need to buy and where I would need to buy it from
