I messaged Greg yesterday asking him some questions about his large tank drone and he was kind enough to answer in some detail. He does have a discussion at this link regarding his questions on APM. I don't want to distract from that so as he suggest
Read more…Hi all, I am completely new to RC cars and Drones. I have spent a couple hours reading about ArduRover and would really like to give it a try. I thought about building my own but figure for now best to get a car and focus on getting ArduRover working
Read more…Hello all-
My goal with my rover setup is to allow for short term dead reckoning in the event of loss of gps or a weak gps signal. The plan is the rover would automatically switch over to a dead reckoning system, until gps signal is strong enough to

Just got back from the maiden voyage of my Ardu-Boat platofrm (APM 2.5) - and while the eventual end of the trial stemmed from a mechanical problem (gearbox wasn't great) - what I could test of the autopilot had miserable behavior.
I th

As the title implies, my interest in UAVs and UGVs is motivated by a desire to use them in the early stages of disaster recovery operations, especially in areas that are potentially dangerous to people unfamiliar with the area. With that
