First of all, I am back! as I said that I went for my examination.
Now it's time to continue with my project. A question had come to my mind recently. Because I am going to do a ground station which includes the basic 6 air gauges, what is the hardware
what are the some of the difficulties you foresee if RC link is replaced with xbee link?
i was thinking of starting by having a hover mode, indoors : fix a safe throttle that is able to lift off. doesn't matter if the quadrotor falls gradually, i just
I have a Futaba 6EX which has two 2-position switches on channel 5 and 6. I am unable to mix them to form a 4 position switch according the Futaba (marketing or honesty?) so how do I create more positions on my switches?
Hello, just gearing up to enter the Arducopter experience. The wealth of information available about the UAV and its hardware and software is brilliant, but I can find very little mention of what's an adequate radio. How many channels are required for
Greetings everyone. I'm working on a project where a computer steers a farm tractor via GPS. Getting accurate position data is easy. My challenge has been getting accurate heading data. I have tried a MEMS gyro on the yaw axis, but it shows a lot of
hi all friends, i have started to build my quad rotor with arduimu v2 flat,i was looking thruogh the code,initially i am using arduimu v2 flat as a main circuit board and future scope for magnetometer and gps module,and accordingly i set the parameter
I am interested in using ardupilot in a rc car and believe in needGpsArdupilot itselfBut I have read the user manual and it does not mention how to do it for a car.Also, is there a way for it to respond to the ground beneath it or control it's speed
Ok guys, I am COMPLETELY new at this, so please forgive me and feel free to shoot holes in this.
I am wanting to build a drone that is pretty hefty and could drag up a forward looking video, full autopilot, downward looking video, and downward looking
Ok I received the mq9 from nitroplanes as a gift not sure if this is best format for ardupilot. This thing has a 8 ft wingspan! Is this going to be a nightmare for my first ardupilot project ?any suggestions greatly appreciated thanks-
Hi I am planning to build a quadcopter using the ArduPilot Mega. I can see the main project page it states, "ArduPilot Mega is a pro-quality IMU autopilot based on the Arduino Mega platform, which will fly fixed-wing aircraft, quadcopters and (soon)
Hi, At last I managed to go out flying with ArduPilot Mega. I was setup with: - Skywalker : http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1223595 - APM +OilPan and no AirSpeed sensor yet - Ublox GPS - 3 modes : MANUAL, STABILIZE, RTL Worringly, with the
Today I flew Ardupilot with FMA XY IR sensors. Since I do not have a Z sensor, I did the calibration according to the manual (each lens pointing the sky for a few seconds etc.). The ENTIRE sky was covered with clouds (rain clouds); cloud alti
I'm a video game programmer (focusing on artificial intelligence) and I'd like to take some of the concepts I've had a chance to experiment with in virtual worlds to our very concrete world. I'm interested in building a "multi propeller" cop
