"The function 'verify_nav_wp()' lives in the commands_logic ArduPlane sketch. This code runs and verifies that a waypoint has been reached. You could add a flag in that function to trigger a 5V digital output on your APM board. It would run…"

"Jerry, are you firing a camera running CHDK? The problem I've had with using the servo command is that it only puts out PWM not solid 5V signals. I haven't tested it in a while but I think CHDK is unable to register anything when you send…"

"Sorry Joe I don't completely understand your question? I've got it running on my APM 2.5 now, the only thing I changed is that I use A7 and A8 (pins 61, 62) for focus and shoot. The distance calculation between two GPS locations is done…"

"Principally, there are little difference between triggering different cameras. The Cannon's are usually triggered via chdk/usb (since it is available), but almost every other camera can be triggered in a similar way. Usually by using one of the…"

"To trigger a Lumix you'd need to submit PWM pulses to a servo so the arm will physically push the button. CHDK looks for +5V on the USB port."

Hi,



This might be a bit off from the main interest on this forum, but then, you never know.



For my part, the thrill for UAV's was originally the interst for what they could be used for, not the UAV's themselvs. But like most newcomers , I soon learned to tune the expectations for small UAV's down a level or two. Strangely enough, it wasn't all that easy. Lot's of the functionality requested isn't there (yet), more skills then… Continue

Jepp....
Og super grattis med "santa-uav-photo" konkuransen...

Driver ikke selv med autopilot ennå, men set kommer sikkert i løpet av året.
Men driver mye med FPV. Det var grunnen til at jeg begynte med RC i utgangspunktet....
Jeg bor i Oslo og flyr sor det meste rundt omkring rundt byen, men det hadde vært utrolig morro å treffes og "preke skit"....
