About Me:
I'm 22, based in Atlanta, American/German/French, and studying Electrical Engineering. I still have a lot to learn, but hope to constantly gain experience through hands on and studying.
Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest
I've had interest in it for a while, but ultimately after watching the U of P videos back in 2010. I've been studying hard and after gaining some circuit experience I decided that UAV experience would help with my own studies, as well as be an enjoyable hobby. Hopefully I will gain enough knowledge to better the community.

"I've been meaning to get to this, but an App for Android such as this may be able to transmit the data to the APM seamlessly over bluetooth (class one would get ya 100M) or TCP, allowing easy to implement Android following with software already…"
"I've been waiting for the optical flow sensor for quite some time. I know they said here they don't plan to introduce a low cost version but I hope that the Arducopter version isn't in that category."
"Just preordered mine! Black edition. Hard to believe it does 4K video, but who the hell even has a monitor to handle that. At 12 fps its barely worth it, but who knows what may turn up. I wonder how speeds of the Memory card are going to come into…"
"Sorry I should have addressed that at @Travis.Even for circuit boards, I believe I would rather have it insulated as much as possible and create my own connections. But I believe for an Antenna, if it wasn't…"
"Can I ask why you suggest the conductive adhesive?"
"As far as constant voltage, constant power supplies... One of my favorites has been this little thing off eBay. CC, CV driver
It's 7-35 in and 1.25-30V out up to 3 amps (15 watts reg, 25 with heatsink... Do the math for the current/voltage to…"

"Don't worry about how long it takes for this class to start, this guy was my ECE 3085 professor and he is nothing short of awesome. He is enthusiastic and knows his stuff. That is a parrot ar drone. His focus isn't so much about the physical aspects…"
"Though I am sure there are other factors, I believe the reason he was stating that we should know that chinhook was fastest was due to the fact that the top limiting speed of the blade due to the speed of sound and pitch on the retreating blade.…"
"@ Veikko
Looking at his icons, it seems like he is using VMWare. I use Parallels 7 on my Mac, and I use VMware on PC. Overall I enjoy Parallels tenfold over VMWare, but VMware is better if you plan to move your virtual machines across PCs quite…"

"Don't cheap out and buy this frame on ebay! I bought a x525 and and x450. The x525 is similar to this except springs on the arms, but not a single arm had properly drilled holes which means that what you'd expect would be easy assembly turns into…"
"It's cool to read all the experience here with different noise dampening systems, aquatic silicon is something I would've never thought of myself, even though I have some extra sitting around my house. Saving me a lot of time when I finally get…"
"@ Robert & Sami. I've completely forgot about the resonant frequency of the frame, as well as each component that would have dampening in between would have its own resonating frequency, which would be lot to keep track of if you did add many…"
"Yes I would agree if that was the case. I apologize but when I meant between the arm and board mounts I meant between the arm and the body, as that difficulty would vary more depending on your frame. Though I put very thin very dense foam that is…"
"Also I believe the more parts you 'insulated' with rubber, the more mediums the vibrations would have to pass, and each change in medium would continue to remove lower frequencies... but I forgot why I believe this, likely trying to apply…"
"I'm a noob with quadcopters but I know with hardrives, vibrations can greatly affect performance. There are a variety of solutions, but often the best thing to prevent hard drives vibrations from affecting each other is to attempt to get the hard…"
Hey there,I don't have all my parts to start building yet, but I like to continually verify that everything that I have is decent for a self built quad. Some information is overwhelming(custom firmwares on ESCs) and hard to make decisions…
