Nice! Is internal MPU-6000 DMP implemented? Or DCM as before?

Moderator Comment by Roberto Navoni on April 23, 2012 at 1:52am

Hi Krill at the moment we use standard external DCM , we have a fast read of sensor and update of DCM of APM 2.

The next step will be EKF instead of DCM  , This is MP32F1 at 72 mhz but FOX TEAM DEVELOPER are working on MP32F4 168 mhz that have inside a DSP and MPU for floating point , so we think that we can use any kind of algorithm on our platform without problem of resource.

Best

One thing to noticfe is that I have also upgraded my ESC's with the SimonK firmware. This was also a big improvement. The motors run much smoother and silently and the impression is that the stability gets much better.

very impressive

Emile and Roberto, very good work !!

These are the flight results that you must have an ARM.
Soon I'll try to write my own code for the STM32 F4 discovery board.

Hi Danilo ... on our repo the lib for F4 growing day by day check this thread : http://www.virtualrobotix.com/forum/topics/multipilot32-v3-f1-f4-an...

Keep in touch with me and Alberto for understand the status of work on F4. the MP32F4 hardware is yet available for dev and use NAVY 2012 . So all is ready for the first flight only some work on the code and then start first flight :)

If you want join to dev group of F4 you are welcome :)

Robero, thank you for your reply. Now it's clear. 

I'm also working on the autopilot based on ARM (STM32F103), it has MPU-6000 too. I've already finished the code with internal DMP. Going to make the first flight soon, now I'm testing it in my hands, works pretty good. 

I'll make a post about it after flight.
