PIC32Flight Control & dsESC4
Hereby my project, I wanted to build a quadrocopter to learn more about system control and brushless motor and because it is cool. To target also was to make it without as little wires as possible and that is why I made a…

JDrones OpenESC one step closer or reality
We have been working lately with Jason.J and few other people to create first real Open Source ESC that is based on STM32 RISC processors. Just moment a go courier delivered first PCBs to my desk here at jDrones and we are thrilled to see how they start perform after assembly has done for these.
OpenESC pcbs are 35 x 25mm and 4 layers PCBs. Power range…

Developer Steps toward ESC feedback using SimonK
Most of the pro multicopter set-ups have feedback from the ESCs so the controller knows the status of the motors. This is useful for all kinds of reason including:
1. debugging the causes of crashes - the controller could log when a motor has stopped running.
2. allows faster and better reaction to a motor failure perhaps saving you from a crash at least for…

More progress for a South Carolina Arducopter - The APM2 lives!
It was a productive weekend: MP up and running on my shop PC, aircraft firmware loaded into APM2, radio connections troubleshot and calibrated, Wow! There's my house with a graphic quad hovering over it! (I am not worried about giving away my coordinates. Come on by but call first, please.) After…

Implementing ESC Fail Safe
I had a request to provide information on how I implemented an ESC fail safe on my quadcopter and posted a small image of the process under the ArduCopter 2.5 firmware thread. Since I suspect there may be a more general interest in this, I'm posting a blog segment on this fail safe.
Above is an image of the process.
Also, here's a pdf…

Rock ESC - a new, open source, high performance Electronic Speed Controller project
Hello everybody,
My name is Adam Miłosz and I'm on of the guys working on Rock ESC.
Just to give you the idea of the ESC that we want to develop, here are the highlights of the planned features:
• super fast motor response time,
• overcurrent protection,
• open source software,
• high current handling -…

EasyStar Upgrade 3: ESC and LiPO fitment
Cramming the ESC, LiPO and motor in the back compartment space isn't easy given the short space so I gave it a look, placed everything where it could go and the problem became apparent. Leads would have to be cut as if they were not the LiPO could be in the nose so I decided to trim back the leads on the cheapest bit, the eTronix. Trimmed to a sensible length I found the battery leads were still too long so trimmed them again. I used gold connectors and heat shrink to connect and…
