"Can you provide a direct link? I can't seem to find the Firecracker on that site. Looks like an excellent platform though!"
"I don't exactly remember which pin it was (it's been two years since I hacked mine), but the FASST receivers all have full PPM output on one pin of the main MCU within it. Some probing with an Oscope should work. Good luck."
"One thing that I'm thinking is that PPM is maybe not the best protocol for autopilot use. I was looking into the AR7000, and it appears that the satellite receiver communicates using a simple serial packet. Something like this could be very useful…"
Hi everybody,I've been thinking a bit about creating an open source radio control TX/RX system. I think that as a community, we can do better than what Spektrum/JR/Futaba/etc. have been putting out, and certainly do it for cheaper (adding two…

"Also, any idea when the Skywalker will be back in stock?"
"Hooks, how goes the Vacuformed ABS Battle?"
"Less of the I, more of the P. :)"
"It won't help accuracy, but it will help make the laser easier for the camera to pick up (they can be tricky in bright light, or on varying terrain). A laser bandpass filter is a filter for a camera that only allows one wavelength (color) of light…"
