"Hi, try looking at this code.  You will have to tweek it a bit since I am not familiar with stm32 code.___spi_app.txt"

Al Toma replied to Andres Alvarado's discussion Getting data from an ADNS3080 optical flow sensor
"Hi, I have been successful in making this work on Arduino UNO.  You would probably need to convert to cortex, though.  Can you show me a small snippet of stm32 code?"

Al Toma replied to Boke's discussion APM 2.5 Opical Flow Failed to initialise ADNS3080
"Hi All,
I just picked up the ADNS3080 form Ebay recently for $18. Just wondering if folks are still trying to get the ADNS3080 optical flow sensor working.  I have modified the test sketch and successfully ran it on an Arduino Uno and Mega but I do…"

Al Toma replied to Ted Van Slyck's discussion Using analogRead with ArduIMU v3
"You are welcome. You stated that you are making a motion-based transmitter for multicopters. Does that mean you are creating a hand held unit utilizing the IMU to output roll pitch which will be transmitted to your multicopter via an RF link like…"

Al Toma replied to Ted Van Slyck's discussion Using analogRead with ArduIMU v3
"If you are using this software version and using hardware version V3:
// Version 1.9 Support for ArduIMU V3 Hardware with MPU6000 and HMC5883 magnetometer 
Then you must have this statement uncommented:
#define BOARD_VERSION 3     // 1 For  new V3…"

Al Toma left a comment for Al Toma
"Hi, thanks for the update.  Which code, Michael or Greg was finally selected?  Has anyone used it to produce a working stabilized gimbal prototype?  Would you know of any web sites that has info on a DIY brushless motor controller?
Thanks"

Al Toma replied to andrew shrimpton's discussion ArduIMU V3 - A stand alone vibration measurement tool - Or an Arduino with accelerometers
"Andrew, the element14 link did not work for me.  BTW, the ArduImu has a 3-axis accelerometer, 3 axis gyro and a 3 axis magnetometer.  Everything you need to get roll, pitch yaw orientation of the board.

Once you have this board spitting out data to…"

Al Toma replied to Al Toma's discussion ArduIMU_V3 DCM Code with Calibration
"Andrew, very near the top of ArduImuV3_v1.ino file is a link to the DIY drones code respository.  Since this app is using libraries there you will have to download the 1.9.6 zip file to get all the required libraries into your system.  I am using…"

Al Toma replied to andrew shrimpton's discussion ArduIMU V3 - A stand alone vibration measurement tool - Or an Arduino with accelerometers
"Hi Andrew, have you managed to download the Arduimu V3 code and run it?  Did you see any serial output?  If you have gotten that far, then it I think you can do it."

Al Toma replied to andrew shrimpton's discussion ArduIMU V3 - A stand alone vibration measurement tool - Or an Arduino with accelerometers
"HI, I think this can easily be done with the ArduimuV3 and the SparkFun OpenLog SD Card (Dev-09530).  You will need to take the existing code for the V3 and pretty much strip out everything except the reading of the raw xyz accel values.  Then write…"
