Is there a need for a cheap, small, color LCD?I ask because it seems like a few people have asked or tried to hack out their own and i have/know a few solutions as i had a project dealing wearable computers (i went as far as buying those digital camc
Hello:It´s my first post here!! I´m looking for if any body know this book?System Architecture of Small Autonomous UAVs of Marek Musial.Because, I want to know how it is.Thanks for allJesus
I'm trying to read the SCP1000 barometric sensor with Arduino, and I'm just getting zeros with this code. (the author got the same thing and apparently found a solution but never posted it :-( ) The sensor uses the SPI interface, which has some trick
I am running a GIS company in Malaysia, I plan to invest in a RC that can fly autonomously, taking hi-res vertical aerial pic of min. 1miles x 1miles. With control flight system, Probably fly at 500-800 feet. With image processing software to help wi
Any suggestions from the group on how one could optically track a UAS using a powered telescope. The UAS transmits its coordinates and altitude to the base station how would one go about converting this to a x/y vector for the optical system? (this c
hi i am new to fpv flying and i want to know how everyone flying fpv are controlling their planes at long distances greater than 1 or 2 km with their radio control systems.i am having trouble finding a reasonably priced radio control system that will
The quad been sitting unused for 6 months, and I don't expect to get back to it anytime soon. I paid around $2k including various spares (props, ESC, motor, etc), and would take half that. Info is here -http://www.asctec.de/main/index.php?id=8&pid=7&
Hello all,I'm working on the auto/manual switching system for my UAV right now, and I was wondering how all of you handle inputting the signal from the receiver. At least for me, the switch on my transmitter that I'm using to switch between auto and
Now that we're getting bigger and sharing more code on this site, I'd like to find something better than putting random files in discussion responses. Has anyone had enough experience with the various code repositories out there to recommend one that
I thought I would let everyone know about hobbycity.com. They are an excellent place to get lipo packs for about half(!) what they cost from any US source I have found. Their shipping is also reasonable and quick. The last time I ordered from them, I
As a high powered, cross platform language, i think its appropriate that it has a thread to popularize, discuss, help, and educate UAV builders in it. I say UAV builders because we are a niche community, and we get what we all are trying to do and pr

as we all know, wind drift is a problem when trying to get to our GPS coordinates. While in physics, for constant velocity drift, the equation is pretty easy, programming it to accomodate is a different story. while i haven't checked out, does the au
Hello everyone,Besides some small roadblocks, my Arduino-EasyStar UAV project has been going well. The autopilot is nearly debugged (or so I tell myself : P), and I have all of the electronics parts I need, except for the proper batteries.I'm not sur
