I m developing a quadcopter but I'm looking for literatur or example code (algorithm) to write a program in C++. In order to fly throught 3D waypoints it must implement a controller for the path.
I have just decided to resurrect my old APM1 which I used on a multirotor a few years ago and try it on an X5 flying wing, had 4 test flights yesterday with the latest firmware and couldn't get any of the auto modes to work, I tried stabilize, FBW
had a great flight with my octo yesterday without any problems. whenever i connect my pixhawk today, there is a weird sound beeping. it isnt reacting on anything i do. i then tried to connect to mission planner to figure out whats wrong but
I am experiencing trouble with the current sensor. I am using the attopilot 180a. In mission planner it does not detect any current flow. I thought it was a problem with the Pixhawk but after speaking with 3D Robotics we chased down all of the known
Hi Guys,I have a coal discard dump that I need to rehabilitate to a state where the discard does not run into the natural streams in the area. Discard is the fines and other undesirable mined substances that comes out of a coal mine. There are many l
For the Tarot 680PRO many of us are adding longer tubes so that we can fit 15" props. While I was doing it I thought some others might like to see the simple method I use to drill the tubing.
Trying to control my brushless dys 3axis gimbal with the PWM output from a11 on my apm. I was able to get the gimbal to react to the turning of the knob on my transmitter but it seemed all over the place and would go up and down and not react correct
I’m moving all electronics from my Arducopter frame onto a F450 Flamewheel. I have JDrones 20A ESCs that have built-in BECs. The Arducopter’s PDB combines all four 5v power feeds into one and all signal wires into four single plugs that connect to my
I've had my Phantom for 3 weeks now. I've been noticing that instead of holding steady when I'm not touching the controls it will circle in about a 15' diameter area. I also had it run away from me one day not long after take off. I crashed it and wa
Today I tried to fly a small Cessna 182 with pixhawk and everything seemed fine until I activated the FBWA mode. I started flying manually and take off with difficulty because it is a little heavy, but when I thought was stabilized
This is one of my replies to Stefan Ekstam who has posted one of several grossly irresponsible high altitude FPV videos on Youtube causing an outpour of criticism and damaging replies I believe are the intentional result of "baiting" with some obviou
Anyone have experience with a relatively long (~20 ft) restraining tether that will keep light tension on the line to minimize risk of tangling in the props, with enough cord strength to restrain a 44 lb octocopter should it decide to wander during p
I updated my MinumOSD firmware to the 2.4r726 , and updated the config software also to 2.3.2 r727 I like what I see, but I'm not receiving data, battery show .00, and in mission planner has all the right data, using separate telem ports on pixhawks,
I have moved to telemetry over openlrs. I have it working great to droidplanner on my phone at the groundstation. But I cannot get my previously great working minimosd to work anymore. I had to modify the apm serial baud rate to 19200 for the openlrs
I'm trying to figure out what caused a rather beautiful crash yesterday--if such a thing exists--of a custom built heavy-lift hexacopter that has had several weeks of problem free flight time. It's running a Pixhawk with ArduCopter 3.1.5 Hexa
