I plan on getting a bachelors degree in electronics engineering, and perhaps computer science as a double. Possibly going on to get a masters in one of them. If I wanted to work on UAV design, as in the technical parts, not the design of the aircraft

When we hook up a battery to the board, what LED's should light up? When attempting to load the code, what is the order in which the LED's should blink or alternate?
We are having trouble loading the code, and keep getting errors. We have a 3.3V (3
I am in a group working on Paparazzi. For my 48" Delta wing airframes, I have been using the thermopiles for a while which actually prevent me from getting my project going. So I turned to low cost IMU and Ardu is the very first choice. So far I have

Everything works fine except the yaw. My problem is that the yaw value keep increasing even if the board isstable. Is that because

this is the worlds smallest rc plane...... it literally weighs less than a piece of paper and costs $200aus.....WOW! so what do you think

Hello everybody !
Prior to build my own quadcopter, I have build a GAUI330x and it was flying very well for few months.
Then, I have started to upgrade it to familiar myself with APM+oil pan boards.
This is its new configuration :
- structure/ESCs/mot

This is my first post in this forum, but I have been reading on you progress for awhile now.
WOW! looks like you guys achieved so much with minimal HW and processing power.
A couple of month ago I finished a self balancing robot project (writ

Hi,
Does Ardustation show any values on its screen while APM is in stabilize mode?
I'm just seeing zeroes and wondering whether I will only see values with APM in auto mode.
thanks

I have made my own power dist. board since I can not buy one and I was tired of waiting to fly! I went to RS and saw some small PCB boards and I figured I could make them work! There are 2 boards in a pack which was great in case I screwed up or in m

I have just built a quadcopter in an X configuration. I have been having majorproblems (stability, twitchy, uncontrollable ...) trying to get it to take offon its 1st flight. So I thought I would try tuning the PID using theconfigurator software.
