"@Fab: Chill out dude, do you have a problem with success and people making money? Be thankful for what we have nowadays ... Before there was radioshack, tandy, heathkit, and other crap. Now we've got sparkfun, diydrones, adafruit,…"

"I'm a big fan of DIYDrones, as well as OpenPilot. Both are fantabulastic projects. I am a little worried though about the negative attitude of OpenPilot towards DIYDrones. They claim that DIYDrones used some of the design from OpenPilot (which is…"

"I am trying to setup an environment to program the STM32. I have the same board (STM32-STAMP). Do you have a barebones project using codesourcery-gcc setup you can send me (makefile, linkerscripts, etc .. ) using the ST Micro's Firmware library ?…"

"David,

It was very concerning of me to read the following:

"I also misjudged how much things cost, ....
... I am still going through it, although it is now very possible OpenPilot won't survive long enough for me to learn enough. This would be a…"

"David, your contribution to OpenPilot is commendable and the community is in gratitude for your efforts, and the efforts of any and all contributors.

But seriously dude, going in debt because of OpenPilot :) ?? Get your priorities straight, take…"

"Thanks to those of you, both well-known and behind the scenes, who help make this community as vibrant and helpful it is!"

"Thanks for the protocol jason. Two questions:
1) How was the mtk3329 protocol changed? Is there a command to modify the protocol to NMEA string, customized binary, etc ... ? Do you have to have a relationship with MediaTek to do it, or is there a…"

"Is the data format of the 'custom DIY drones' GPS firmware available somewhere? I can infer it from the code, but I would like to see some documentation ..."

"Jordi: Strap it onto a plank of wood with a motor and dump the data here please :)"

"Pete: I also went thru it rather quickly (at work .. bleh). One issue I saw with the MRAC scheme was that there is no guarantee of converging to a particular solution, rather - the the error is guaranteed to converge to zero. Perhaps this is the…"

"Ryan, thanks a bunch! Soooo .... anyone wanna implement MRAC D or L1 and try it out? Source code is given! I've been thinking about something like this for a while, some way to parameterize an airframe's dynamic response, and an adaptive way to…"

"What processor do you plan on using in the future? I am looking for a processor which has maximum native PWM capability. I haven't been able to find any processors which had that, and all the other connectivity options I would like - so I've been…"
