I am convinced that a pocket-sized durable selfie drone will be hugely popular on kickstarter. I estimate that initial fixed cost for the 3D printer, automated parts assembly unit, and process control system will cost $55,000 to implement. My cost estimate of motors, blades, internal circuitry, batteries, and overhead for each pocket-sized durable selfie drone is $157; boxing and shipping to each customer will be another $27. Given market conditions, I believe that each pocket-sized durable selfie drone can sell for $279!
