But then, why not selling the UDB with a bootloader already installed ?

"There is a workaround for the Pickit2 to work with the UDB3 dpic33F series which has been discussed on the uavdevvboard forum. Personally, I recommend you go mainstream and use the Pickit3 which is what I do.
I have never used the pickit2 workaround…"

ContinueMatrixPilot 3.0's Improved Navigation

This is a screenshot of part of one of my MP3.0 test flights from yesterday. The plane was programmed to fly figure eights, using the UDB Logo program below. The GPS track is shown at 1Hz, and the dead reckoned IMU track is shown at 4Hz. The plane had taken off very recently when it started this track, so it was still…

The MatrixPilot dev team is happy to announce that version 3.0 is finally out the door! This update includes a hefty code reorganization into modular, reusable libraries, along with some important new features, and refinements to our dead reckoning and wind estimation algorithms. The code should also now be much easier to hack on as a basis for using the UAVDevBoard for other purposes.
Thanks to all the developers and testers who helped out with this…
ContinuePlaying With UDB LOGO

We've been working hard to make MatrixPilot ever more modular, and to test this modularization, I thought it would be fun to build a LOGO-like mission planning language as a plug-in replacement for the existing waypoints module.
After a few evenings of playing, I ended up with something that actually feels pretty useful. All the logo basics are there: HOME, RT, LT, FD, BK, REPEAT, etc. You can also set…

Just in time to run on your new UDBv3, the UDB development team is excited to release version 2.5 of MatrixPilot! This version adds tons of new features, including inverted stabilization, camera targeting, more configurable waypoints, wind speed estimation, dead reckoning, and hardware-in-the-loop simulation. Big thanks go out to everyone who has written and submitted code, tested bleeding-edge versions, found bugs, and asked and answered great questions.…

This is Rana, RC Test Pilot from India, who done very extensive test flights on Bill's MatrixNav8a & AileronAssist8a.
I have made a small shield for the UAV Dev. Board 2 to use all the features of your Firmware.
I want to test your latest firmware, can I have it ?
Thanks & Best Regards
