— Engineer, builder, pilot

Aral
Doğan.

I design and build things that move — robots that compete, drones that fly, and software that ties them together. Currently exploring the intersection of hardware, control systems, and clean interfaces.

About

Curious by trade, deliberate by craft.

Working on
  • Mechanical design (Onshape / Fusion)
  • CAD assembly & simulation
  • Sheet metal & fabrication
  • Drivetrain optimization

I'm a mechanical engineer focused on designing and building robots that perform under pressure. I translate competition requirements into solid CAD and then bring those designs to life on the shop floor.

Most weeks you'll find me in Fusion 360 or Onshape optimizing drivetrain geometry, fabricating custom parts, or troubleshooting mechanical systems at competition. I like precision, repeatability, and the satisfaction of a mechanism that works exactly as designed.

FPV — Racing

Hand-tuned. Hand-flown.

Racing drones since 2024

I race hand-built 5-inch racing quads. Every frame tuned for speed, every PID loop dialed in. It's the closest you can get to flying yourself — total control, instant feedback, no forgiveness.
