80" Wing - suitable as a platform for UAV

Work has stared on a 80" Flying RiteWing - based on a TL60 with an added 20" centre Section.

Powerplant will be 4S 10300 mah Lipo, at about 800 watts full throttle, but should cruize at 200 watts, so about 45 minutes flying time. Expected weight is 3.5 kg, and should be able to carry a fair bit more payload



The wings remove, so transport is only 2 x 30" wing sections and one 20" centre section.



The Wings only house one digital full size servo each, so nice an simple,… Continue

OpenWrt UAV platform

My idea is to use OpenWrt + Arduino for a futureproof/scalable UAV patform. I'm planning to do some testing in the spring with the basic Fonera router flashed with OpenWrt Kamikaze 8.09.



This setup however doesn't have USB-ports that would enable live streaming webcam, 3G modems and in-flight high quality images through gphoto2 and a digital camera. I'm waiting to see how much the just finalized Fonera 2.0 with USB costs, but I'll still probably go with the… Continue
