Draft project assignments--please review
[UPDATE: the team leaders should all now be inviting team members as friends and once the invitations are accepted, they'll be invited to the workspaces. If you're on the team, you'll get an alert telling you that you've been added. It will say nonsense about needing to click on unclickable words, but ignore those bugs. Just go to your workspace by clicking on the Workspaces tab and you should see it.
I'll be swinging by in each Workspace as I'm added to upload necessary files and give further directions over the next day or two.

Many thanks to all of you have stepped forward in our call for ArduPilot project help! I'm going to set up the projects in the workspaces and give the initial project definitions in the next day or two, but in the meantime I've made some provisional assigments based on expressed preferences. Names with an asterisk in front would be the provisional project lead/managers.
If you've volunteered, please review the list and see if you're happy with your assignment. If not, please express your preferred change in the comments. If you're shown as lead and don't want to lead, please comment. Or, if you'd like to lead a project and aren't shown as the lead, comment that too.
Finally, if you'd like to add your name to one of these projects, do so in the comments as well.
1) Design a "thermopile replacement" version of ArduIMU: this is a version of the current ArduIMU board with a two-channel DAC and a FMA connector, so it can output voltage to emulate the FMA thermopiles.
*Michael Zaffuto
Mark Colwell
Joe
David S
David Sprague
2) Design the turn-rate limiter shield hardware and software modification to the ArduPilot code: this is shield that has a one-axis gyro, a differential pressure sensor and a connector for the uBlox GPS. It will duplicate the functions of the UNAV PicoPilot but be better and a lot cheaper.
*Jeff Taylor
Curt Filipowski
Michael Zaffuto
Grubi
David Sprague

3) Create and maintain a library of airframe.h configuration files
*Peter Meister
Octane-link
4) Design the hardware for the ArduPilot Mega ground station (with dynamic PID adjustments).
*Sarel Wagner
Andy Geppert
John C
Peter Koppendorger (enclosure)
Mogly
Kyle Corbitt
5) ArduIMU documentation
*Andy Geppert
John C
Michael
Octane-link
David Sprague
6) Create an autopilot PID tuning guide
*Octane-link
Mogly
7) Create a Lego Mindstorms compatible version of our MUX/Failsafe. This is just our current board with the addition of a Mindstorms connector and any necessary components for an I2C link.
*Christopher Barnes
Michael Zaffuto
8) Create a "Using ArduPilot with the Remzibi OSD" guide
*HappyKillmore
John C
Peter Meister
9) Create a ArduStation assembly and usage manual
*Chris Anderson
John C
Octane-link
James McGlinn
10) Create a system that can inject telemetry data on the invisible closed caption lines of a video stream and be able to decode it in the other side for the OSD system.
*Remzibi
David Sprague
11) Contest management
*Gary Mortimer
Chris Anderson
12) Podcast management
*Tim Trueman
Chris Anderson
13) Create Lego Mindstorms turn-rate limiter autopilot code (similar to #2 and using #7)

Caleb,
The ArduStation already supports realtime moving map support with Google Earth. Or did you want something else?

Comment by Dave_fr on October 1, 2009 at 11:17pm -
I'm very happy with Jeff as the leader.

Comment by Caleb M on October 2, 2009 at 8:15am -
yes, it works fine. however would be nice to have that integrated directly into the ardustation window.
