There are some really cool FPV setups out there now, with head tracking goggles and everything. Now I think it would be really cool if you could interface a flight simulator joystick with a plane, as opposed to the standard two-joystick/toggle switch

Hi,
I am flying my ardupilot in a fast Elektro junior S, It runs ardupilot 2.4 and I have a FV-M8 GPS and DIY drones termopiles.
The question is:
How fast can be the attitute data rate and position datarate set without overloading the Arduino?
define ATT
I have read on the forum of varius IMU ad ARDUIMU 6DOF o Razor IMU 9DOF or an hack of ARDUIMU with a magnetometer ad a barometric sensor .
From my point of view the best solution for my project is an ARDUIMU with 9DOF and a bramoteric sensor ( the

I am working on a Ground Control Station (software right now). Here is the current progress:
Yello people!
Hi
I'm getting a very noisy speed measurement (unusable noisy...). I suspect the pitot tube for being responsible.
I am using DIYdrones pitot tube. the silicon tube is about 40 cm (a little more the a foot) and the metal pipe is located at the wings le
