Hey guys,finally decided to give the hexa a go, nice build (will post pics later), just having issues with getting all the motors going, I uploaded the hex via the APM software chose hexa as the…Continue

Luke Nyhof replied to Shyam Balasubramanian's discussion IDEA Required: For a Master Thesis Project."Next, think about the weight of 100' of cable (which can transmit at least 60-120A @ 12-24VDC), and the amount of voltage drop due to the internal resistance of the cable itself...
Then perhaps think about using a different idea."
Luke Nyhof commented on Chris Anderson's blog post "Mind-controlled" spherocopter on Kickstarter"I agree Fab, muscle noise, especially from the eye muscles can be easily used as a control signal, however from my work and the work of many other researchers in the neuro field have found that the computer system which interprets the eye muscle…"
Luke Nyhof commented on Chris Anderson's blog post "Mind-controlled" spherocopter on Kickstarter"@ Fab, it sure as heck does work without an invasive ECoG array, try telling that to the neuroscience department at pretty much any hospital around the world! It's the muscle noise and electrode connectivity/impedance non-stationarity which is…"

Luke Nyhof replied to Chad Frazer's discussion No telemetry but good display..."I have the same problem, tried with Xbee and an MK Wi.232 module, all have the same problem.

Luke Nyhof commented on Matthew Schroyer's blog post Ride the Drone - Promo video for an NSF grant to improve STEM ed."Hi Matthew, put a neutral density filter on your GoPro HD Hero2 camera, it will get rid of the annoying rolling shutter artefacts you can see from the spinning prop in the video :).
Great work otherwise!

Luke Nyhof replied to Jerry Normandin's discussion I've got some stable parameters for a hobbying sk-450 frame ntm 26-28a motors and blueseries 30amp esc to share!"Hi Terry,
Any chance you could post your PID settings for the 650 Hexa? I'm having a couple of little issues with my PIDs and it would be great to compare them to somebody else's settings."
Luke Nyhof replied to Luke Nyhof's discussion APM output pins 1-4 working, 5-8 not working for Hexa"Ahh... right then...
it's the old case of don't follow logic, just follow the instruction manual... damn this lisdexia!
haha, thanks Chris"

"Wait: you are following the manual, right? Output channels 5&6 are for the pan-tilt camera, not motors.
See diagram here. "

"I'm flying the ArduCopter hex every week. Works fine. Are you absolutely sure you clicked on the right icon?"
Luke Nyhof replied to Luke Nyhof's discussion APM output pins 1-4 working, 5-8 not working for Hexa"@Chris, Yes, I did solder it myself, in the electronics lab. I have measured the outputs and channels 5 & 6 are outputting a solid PWM output of 1500, the other channels all register from 990 to 2000 depending on the throttle input, all inputs…"
