"I did move the front wheel behind the forks to increase the trail which seemed to help when running off road. On road it wasn't a problem with less trail. If you ever seen a "normal" r/c bike the trail is much greater - the triples are actually…"
"John, yeah that motorcycle was part of the inspiration for my little project! The currently offered off-road r/c motorcycles use a heavy flywheel in the rear wheel to provide the stability necessary to run off road. I had read that the team ghost…"
My IMU stabilized bike has yet to (intentionally) leave the ground, so it doesn't get very far away from me. I'm not sure if this would be useful to those of you with drones - definitely not planes, but maybe quad rotors could benefit?From the…
"Sorry for taking forever to respond to these comments!
This particular bike started out as a Ricky Carmichael bike that was sold by Radio Shack almost 10 years ago. Only the wheels and tires remain. :) I purchased the carbon fiber frame and front…"

I noticed that Chris posted a while back about the use of an Arduino in an R/C car. I've haven't posted anything here about my project as it's not autonomous, doesn't fly, and isn't really a drone.It does, however, borrow code from the ArduIMU for…
Hey everyone,Please forgive me if this has been asked before. I searched for related questions, but couldn't find any.I was just taking a look at the latest ArduIMU code and I find it curious that the comment in the ADC code says that the…
"Doug,
Just wanted to mention that reversing the signs for all of my accelerometer inputs brought things back to normal with the cross product being calculated with the vectors swapped from before. And yes, I am using the roll angles as 0 to +/-…"

"Hey Doug, I'm using a slightly modified version of this code on different hardware, but it's been working quite well. Thanks!!
I based my code on an earlier version (v14 I believe) and am just now looking into merging in some of the latest updates.…"
