About Me:

I am currently an Senior Electrical Computer Engineer at a Northeastern University. My primary academic interest are control systems & robots. I am hoping to develop a thorough understanding of robot control systems through experimentation and execution


Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest

My senior project is to develop an autonomous radio tracking quadcopter using the doppler direction finding technique. I am hoping that everything I learn during this project can be applied to developing custom control scheme for a group of UAVs so that safe formations and pattern flight will be possible.

"I am also experiencing this with my APM 2.5 (i believe that's what you meant with "AMP 2.5") that I purchased last month.  Looking through the forums, it seems that there are some issues with getting the 3dr radio modules to work, but none of the…"
