Hello,There is one thing, at system level which puzzles me:The UAVs are using a separate analogic data downlink for Video, even if they do send their HKTM via a radio-modem.This surprised me even more when I googled for OSD systems in the likes of ra
Hi all.I have a project for the UAV guys with onboard video here in and around the Houston, Texas area. I recently lost my RC helicopter in an area of abut 600 acres in the Katy area. What I'm wanting to do is do a pattern flyover in the area to see
Can anyone supply me a sampl eof some "Working Code". I'm very new to programming, and what I know about it could get me into jail. But i'm willing to learn and figure it out.Is it possible for someone to send me some actuall working codes for the ar
can you please tell me about an site to get the aerofoil parameters for different NACA series of aerofoil ?any sites that give info on how to find aerodynamic center?

Hi all,below is my attempt at basis for NMEA parser - actually code below just reads desired NMEA sentences...I am not trying too reinvent the wheel, as I know many others have already done this - and I used Jordi's and Michal B.'s code for learning
Hi AllCan anybody help me? I have two of the Ardupiolts from the very first batch, and I need to Re-program the Attiny chips. Anybody know where i can get my hands on a AVRS programmer unit in SA? Or does anybody in south african on this website have
I wonder if there's some way to make Xbee module to work with Wifi adapter already present in PC (for example in Notebook). Xbee 2.4GHz uses same frequency as Wifi,This could reduce complexity of telemetry if we could omit one XBee module at base sta
Hi!I see lots of projects around RC planes here, also some quadcopters.I would be interested in a DIY solution for RC helicopter stabilization, maybe also an auto pilot.Is there anything like that? Any pointers would be great.Thanks,Andreas
Hi all,Has anyone use ArduPilot only as flight control augmentation (fly by wire) only? i.e. all control will still be commanded by the RC transmitter but the autopilot is there for stability, etc..ThanksRyan
Hi allI'm DIYing a basic stamp autopilot (i know not new but want to sort of integrate it myself for the sake of it) and just wanted to run my co-ordinate system by some of you guys to confirm it will work.Basically I just drop off the higher parts o
Hi,I am doing a college project related to unmanned aircraft, and would like to include a section on the low-cost projects currently being developed on the internet. Most commercial projects appear to be very large and expensive, I'm interested in sm
Hi all,first of all - while I know enough 'C' to be "dangerous", I am not C++, C#, etc. junkie - so...I looked over ArduPilot code and at least to me it looks like 'linear execution' - i.e. i don't see anything happening in parallel. For example, whi
Just wondering if any body is using digital servo's with their ARDU pilot and FMA Co-pilot? The reason for asking is becasue I have HS7955TG in my UAV and would like to know if they will be an issue.
Hi there. I'm hoping I can get some guidance on what/where to buy everything of a good quality and hopefully cheap.I'm look to get the full UAV kit, googles etc etc and also some sort of Auto Pilot software too and on screen display..Love that F16 sc
Hi all,I thought that you can get altitude data from gps - but looking over documentation (NMEA sentence data) for EM-406A SiRF III , I can't find any reference to it. Am I mistaken or just blind?Thanks
Hi guys...hoping someone out there can help me out. I'm trying to help a high school science class. The task is to put autopilot on a small RC car, which we've managed to do. The second, more challenging task is to return (at the end of the route) as
I'm having problems with my XBee Pros intended as the downlink for the Ardupilot. When I hook my Locosys 5hz GPS directly to the computer using the FTDI cable, I'm getting a 5hz update rate as seen in the attached file GPSFDI.txtAs soon as I introduc
I try to collect list of Autopilot systems.I think this list very informative for beginners.I'll working on features and comparison table for these products.I'll actualy update this message for new products.You can add some informations for these pro
