Hands-On RESTful Python Web Services - Second Edition

Creating classes that represent a drone

We will create the following classes that we will use to represent the different components of a drone:

Class name	Description
HexacopterStatus	This class stores status data for the hexacopter
Hexacopter	This class represents a hexacopter
LightEmittingDiode	This class represents an LED connected to the drone
Altimeter	This class represents the altimeter that measures the current altitude for the drone
Drone	This class represents the drone with its different sensors and actuators

 

In a real-life example, these classes would interact with a library that interacts with sensors and actuators. In order to keep our example simple, we will make calls to time.sleep
