Podcast episode 27: Richard Hanson describes the possible futures for UAVs in the National Airspace (NAS)
Posted on July 20, 2010 at 12:48pm 5 Comments 0 Likes
Richard Hanson, who works on the AMA's Regulatory and Governmental Affairs operations. The regulatory process to introduce UAVs in the National Airspace (NAS) is a long, tortured and potentially disastrous ordeal for us. If it goes well, we'll be given guidelines or laws under which to operate, which create a category for small amateur UAVs that allows us to… Continue
Call for podcast guest suggestions (numero dos)

I realize we've asked for suggestions before but I thought it was time to start a new thread and perhaps get some new and timely suggestions. Feel free to repeat ones from the last post again if you'd still like to get them on the show.
Who would you like to hear interviewed?

I am about to look at x-plane for some potential simulation work, and I *think* you mentioned in some post/podcast (which I can't find) that x-plane reversed reporting of p,q,r values - or something to that effect. Am I remembering this right? I would expect that p is rotation around x-axis, q is rot. around y-axis, and r around z axis -- is this how x-plane is reporting it or is there a discrepancy? Also, do you know if x-plane's reported values for accelerations ( ax,ay,az) are already adjusted for centrifugal acceleration or not? Any other data "gotchas"? Thanks!

- Well the beautiful thing is you can output the data you want to the screen and fly it. That we you can test it by doing wing down and use gravity to see what it is outputting and just adjust it to what you need. It's labeled in the on-screen display but just in an order I wouldn't have guessed. If you have any issues feel free to ask me.

- Hi, Tim. Do you know the control algorithm about quadrotor? Could you help me about the control algorithm design. I was design the autonomous quadrotor. But I found that the paper mapping algorithm couldn't use for the quadrotor. Do you know the person Daniel Mellinger? I have seen his work and it was very cool.
