Come on Makers. I think this one's easy.
Here's how to go about it :
- Create an Alexa skill (ok, maybe Raspberry Pi is good enough) so Alexa can tell the remote (over WiFi or Bluetooth, etc - maybe WiFi using the Particle Photon is the way to go)
- Then, hack the remote - needs rechargeable battery, and the drone board with the quadrotor.
- This requires a few mechanical hacks - you needs the buttons of the remote control on one side, with some extensible standoffs that telescope out so the buttons aren't on the table - unless you think that's okay.
- You also need to be able to flip the thing over using these actuators in case the thing has been put on the surface with the rotor-side down.
- You need the rotors to be deployed only when needed - else it's non aesthetic..
- You need a charging station that the drone can go to - autonomously would be nice :)
