"Ok, so an update in case someone in the future has this same problem. I ended up adding an ultrasonic sensor to help the altitude state estimation. I just trusted the code, slowly brought up the throttle and it took off and hovered! I did two or…"
Hi,So my quad had been sitting around for a few months and I decided to upgrade the software and try to fly it. It's a stock 3DRobotics kit. I downloaded the latest version of Mission Planner 1.2.29 and uploaded the quadrotor firmware it came with.I…
I need some help identifying an issuing I'm having with the L3D4200D 3-axis gyro. Attached is a screenshot of a data capture I took. Now this is just the sensor being tilted forward then backward. What I expect to see is a smooth (a little noisy)…
So over the past few weeks I've been stuck on what seems to be a very difficult problem. I have a quadrotor I'm working on and I have implemented a Kalman Filter on it. Now, the Kalman Filter is fairly simple and really the same as many of the ones…
"The picture is a bit out of date, but the quadrotors IMU and control code is complete. All that's left now is improving hardware to reduced high frequency vibrations from the motors, as well as new props. The control board is going through it's…"
So for the past two months I've been working on a quadrotor project, and I've designed an ARM based board just for it. Contains a TI LM3S9B96 ARM Cortex-M3 (not out yet, some how convinced TI to send me a few), 3-axis gyro, 3-axis accel, compass,…
