Hi everyone,I've written a patch for APM that allows for the autopilot/IMU shield to be placed in any arbitrary orientation relative to the airframe. The patch (based on current trunk code) basically contains the code to add Euler angle offsets to th
Hello everyone, I need help. I've been building a quad using the Arducopter manual and forums as a reference. I am no expert, but I do have some experience using ArduPilot Mega/IMU on several planes. I have also built and flown a Tricopter, so the
I cant seem to find the system requirements for the Arducopter configurator tool in the forums or on the wiki. I have windows 7 starter on my netbook and it says that the configurator is not compatible with this version of windows. Do I need to go
Is it possible to have 2 motors driven by the same signal? Could I create an octo on the current setup but just double up on the motors driving each adjacent pair by one signal? It could fly in a configuration so 2 motors form the front side (side by
Hey, another noob question, but, if it prevent 250$ investment!
I receive my APM and APM IMU yesterday, solder everything, make a couple of test, working great so far. Now, I am at the point to put it on my quad copter and I'm worried about power di
I'm building and programming my own UAV using an Arduino Duemilanove. Yesterday I made a leap and the board is now controlling the servos and with fake position (no GPS connected yet) it tries to turn the plane to the right direction.
I'm considering to build a Arduino/GPS+someting device to have precise feedback about about Velocity and Velocity Made Good on my catamaran. The boat is a small hightech catamaran :
Hi,I am new to UAV I have been playing for the last 3years with model helicopters.I have just built and started flying a mikrokopter octo.I would like to know what is the best type of quadcopter for aerial video and why?Many thanks in advance to your
I have an ardupilot mega that I'm powering with a 3cell 2500mah battery, through an ESC. the ESC is outputting exactly 5v. I've followed the instructions in the manual to setup the voltage sensor. I soldered 3 of the 3.9k resisters in
is there plans to support more than 6 ppm output for using more escs? would it be something solved in a future code release or is it sois it something that will be solved in a future code release or is itsomething to do more with the hardware ? plan
