the fpga is nice - and i wanna have one in the future.
i think of using an i.m6x sl - that is 350 mw at full speed.
more in the usefull range with regards to power consumption."

Now we need to be patient what comes up.
Can you already say what the price will be?
Which is the most interesting point.

robert bouwens commented on Jeff Barton's blog post Fundamentals of Small Unmanned Aircraft Flight"hi jeff,
yes, updating from 3.2 to 3.6.2 solves most issues.
i am surprised how it works!
continue to play with it.
i have a simpler example to filter the accelerometer values. will be very interesting to see the kalman filter in real action."

i played with qtoctave - so far the mat files cannot be read.
plus the directory handling is different.
need to grab some flight data for transfering it as static data into octave.
have you exported some of your functions into…"

Sebastian Madgwick's Quaternion solution - Episode II
Posted on September 19, 2011 at 11:00am 7 Comments 1 Like
I made nice progress - but not after having some bad experience.
As you may know I decided recently to replace DCM with the solution from Seb.
During my holidays in holland i got a terrible cold but i could work a little bit.
Not in terms of a total new framework but experience what to do and…

i have been struggling with gyro drift and up to now no real solution exists.
it effects the pirates and the newer arducopter2 code base because both build upon the same dcm implementation.
i played around with the pirate code base and could improve the situation a little bit.
and after a few trials i decided to replace the current dcm implementation by the quaternion solution from sebastian madgwick.

But of course it's a matter of continual refinement.

- hmm,
let's start at the begin.
the protocoll should be able to tell what firmware is installed.
from that result you can show the options available for the installed firmware.
the current look and feel is that from a geek - somewhere in the corner and as small as possible.
i would prefer a tabcontrol with pages added dynamically ...
my view - but showing all possibilities is for a beginner not what i would suggest.
the basic ideas are well done - need to organized in a matter which makes sense...
