Hello everybody!!!For a few days i have been scanning all these interesting topics on DYI Drones, but i guess all this information is much too much for me to consume at one time. I wolud like to buy an totally automatic plane that i can programm befo
Hi,I wonder has there been any work on running multiple serial devices on the ardupilot. The SoftwareSerial library seems pretty robust and would be good for use with the xbee. This would allow the xbee to be used for telemetry and an uplink. Remote
Hi all, first time UAVer here. I'm trying to put together a stabilizing/navigation autopilot on a high school student budget. I can fly and I know a lot of model flyers, but none of them have ever tried autonomous; I thought I'd ask you guys to point
Hi, I was wondering if there are other people who have used other hardware besides the standard recommended one. I was thinking...replace 1hz em406 with 5hz ls20031. They cost the same anyways!Forget the IR stabilization. Completely remove any IR sta
I am about to build a new plane for fpv flight and uav using Ardupilot.I have both an empty EasyStar and Easyglider foamy.Do I have more chance for success using the EasyStar, or there is no significant difference? I mean the Ardupilot firmware handl
sorry, i am new to this and haven't been able to work it out yetif i were to buy an LS20031, how would i connect it to my ardupilot board? looking at the pictures of it in its documentation i can't see any pins to put cables on or anything like thatt
I've been pondering the problem of expanding the number of channels for the UAVDev Board. I think it is possible to have eight input (radio) channels, four output (servo) channels, an altitude (pressure) sensor and an airspeed (pressure) sensor witho
Hi Guys,Some time ago I started a post with some ideas about making a UAV using rapid prototyping to construct the wings and fuselage......I suppose my initial idea came from a thought that it would be great to create an airframe that has been design

Hello all.Does anyone have any links to recommended 1.3 GHz video transmission packages, not from range video. I currently have the telemetry coming across from the arduino at 900 MHz so I was looking for something out of that frequency as well.If I
So does it?I mean aircraft size. Generally what size are people using....wingspan,length etc?At the moment mine is a 3metre wingspan minus winglets by 1.30metre fuselage length
Hello, i am a new user here. I will be coming here for information about the use of the Audupilot. I will also be posting pictures involving it.I want to experiment with putting Ardupilot onto an E-Flite Blade CX2. The Blade CX2 is the best selling a
This is one of the most exciting things i have read in a while."All user-modifiable settings are in a separate file; enables sharing of configuration files for different airframes."Will there be more in depth instruction on this?
Hi guys ,I'm making ardupilot based UAV (navigation) ,going to use FMA CO-PILOT for stabilization.so, what should be the appropriate power setup(motor,esc,batteries) for the uav ?What abt following:1.) http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/store/uh_view
Hello all,I am a electronics student and i have always been into aircraft. i have a large collection of pieces of rc helicopters and cars but however have never had a rc plane.I was recently given the link to Chris giving a presentation on the ABC(ht
Here is a picture of what my led's are showing. The amber led flashes very fast, the red led is steady, and the gps led flashes red. There is no blue led illuminating anywhere on the boards showing that it is getting a gps lock. Help please!!!
I have my ardupilot installed in my airframe with the expasion board hooked up. Before I installed the ardupilot in my airframe I loaded the code as per instructed by the manual. The upload was succesful so I installed in my airframe with the GPS, pi
