I am attempting to make my quadcopter go around a tree at a constant radial distance (say 50cm ) from it using dronekit python running on a raspberry pi . I will be using a distance sensor (Lidar or ultrasonic sensor) mounted in front
I would use the DJI smart batteries (i.e. The ones used with the M600 Pro, TB47S) in order to have higher density batteries and a smart chip to discharge them after x days.
I know these guys from Italy achieved it, don't know if they used APM-li
I have been flying waypoint missions with just four points all at 50m and then looping the mission with Do_Jump. The mission flies perfectly but the plane altimeter does not fly at 50m. The altimeter is reading 20-35m during the mission. When I try
Does it play nicely with the Pixhawk? It says the 1280 ESC is optimized for the DJI A3 and N3 flight controllers.The ESC and the flight controllers communicate in real time, mak
I am trying to run the multi-vehicle simulation and I can see the active mavros node for each UAV. But when I open Qground control it does not detect the UAVs.
Recently, here is a friend interested in the LiDAR point cloud and output image.
By default, CE30-C outputs a depth image and corresponding intensity data for each pixel in each measurement. Figure below shows the actual scene captured
I recently purchased the Pixhawk Mini. I am unable to connect the receiver.
I am using Futaba receivers - R6208SB and R7008SB. When I connect R6208SB to Pixhawk mini, the led glows red for a second and turns off. When I connect R7008SB, the led glows
I know that it is very common to control quadcopters using PID algorithms. I'm just wondering if it isn't a problem that the system is highly nonlinear as well as having multiple inputs and outputs. Does the model need to be linearized s
RTK /PPK which will be more effective. From my research i will opt PPK because we can post process it and in comparison with RTK its accuracy is better in this mode.
Does anybody have any better reason for RTK/PPK ? please lemme know ..
We are looking for an additional UAV engineer/expert to join our team to assist with integration of autopilots, lasers, sensors etc into our piston engined rotary wing aircrafts. The autopilots are not PIX4D based, so knowledge/understanding
I have some point cloud data of a forested area. I need to classify the ground points and run tree segmentation. What other software can do this besides Terrasolid?
Hello everyone.When I plug my APM 2.8 to pc and plug the gps, APM recognizes it and it even gets locked. I can see gps lights flashing on top of APM. But when I disconnect apm from pc and plug it with battery, it doesn't work. There is no gps lights
First off, I admit I am not a drone expert yet. I have only tinkered with a cheap micro drone. But I am now very interested in drones from the perspective of hybrid power systems. No doubt, many drones and $ outlay ar
