I'm developing a Kalman filter-based GPS/INS integration system, and I'm worried about one of my core assumptions in testing. I've been assuming that the u-blox 5 GPS produces a 4 Hz true fix (v5.0 firmware), with one-sigma RMS position error of 10 m

hey,
my friend is helping me setup up my Ardu gear for me. We are having a few teething problems.
We programmed the Autopilot and I finally got it done with the 2.5.1 code. I'm still having trouble programming the IMU and can’t find any tutorial any

In my latest flight test with the ArduIMU, I found that I probably need to tune it a bit. First of all, the data:-

My preliminary observations are that the output converges onto the accelerometer settings too quickly. This in-
I just got the Arduimu+ V2 today. It is the newer version, with the high pass filter removed.
Initially I hooked it up without any GPS module connected, ran the Arduimu demo, and pitch and roll seemed to be acting normally, and the heading was slowl

Hi guys,
I'm not sure whether I should post it here, but I feel that the problem I have been struggling with might be of interest for those of you who would like to squeeze out more functionality from SFE's Razor 9DOF.
The starting point of the story i
Can someone confirm the difference between Fly By Wire A, and Fly By wire B? Does it simply mean you have manual control of throttle in "A" mode, and airspeed influenced throttle in "B"?
If you have an Airspeed sensor should the code read:

Hi guys. I was wondering about the possibility of adding some kind of GUI to the devboard via an OSD to eliminate having to carry a PC to the field for programming functions. Obviously, I'm a total newbie at this kind of thing and was looking for s

I'm interested in starting my own personal UAV program from scratch. I'd like to get about 30-45 minutes of flight time and like the idea of the autopilot (thinking of grid pattern searches) and video features of the UAV. I've been trolling a
Hi guys,
I have been working on an Arudpilot project for quite some time now. After a lot of testing, and the odd crash landing into the snow and elements, I thought it would be a good idea to get some new hardware. I believe the original hardware is

I am looking for a remote controlled relay that has an adjustable trigger point. Does the ServoSwitch v10 have the ability to have the trigger point modified?
For example, I want to hook 2 switches up on the same throttle channel and one triggers a

Greetings,
I was wondering if the Nav board will work without the GPS module? My main use would be for improved flight performance (stabilization mainly). I have several planes and I'm going to put the full setup with GPS in one of them, but if it
