"They are connected....parallel.........so they drain equally"

"Sure, you are right. In order to keep the overall thrust constant, one pair increases speed and the other decreases in the same magnitud"

Hi, the yaw movements is caused by the torques generated by the rotation of each motor. The front and rear motors turn in one direction, and the left and right in the opposite direction. So, by controlling the motor speed of one of the pairs…"

"Hi, thanks for the comments.

I did the extensions because the wire that came with the ESC was a bit short, so I soldered the extension and used some heat shrink on top.

The weight of the vehicle is about 1Kg.

Here is the link for my previous post…"

Some weeks ago I posted about my quadrotor proyect and showed a video with the Roll controller on a testbench.Now I'm working with the yaw controller. I build a simple testbench to test the behaviour of the controller. As I said before, I am…

"Hi.

I have done several projects with LV. Please let me know exactly what kind of information you need, and what project are you working on so I can help you."

"My loop runs about every 10ms....but my ESC update every 50Hz.....I have read that I can increase the update rate of my ESC by I2C or by compressing the PWM signal to the ESC, but I dont know how to do this"

"Hi Kruk, thanks for your comments. What is MRAC?

I study at EIA (Escuela de Ing de Antioquia).


Anyone:

I would like to have a faster update of my ESC, how can I do that. I know there are 2 options, I2C and having a faster PWM signal, but I have…"

"Jani,

Thanks a lot for your comments.

I have done a lot of projects with labview, and to be honest I dont think the laggy behaviour is because of LV. Im working with LV 2009, and I gues since the last 3 versions of LV they have improve a lot the…"

"Roy,

Thanks a lot for your comments, they are really useful for my project.

Im studying Mechatronic Engineering.

Your right about the latency, but I have tested it without the joystick (using direct controls on labview), and the behaviour is the…"

"Roy

The joystick is connected via usb to my laptop which is running a Labview program which I developed. The laptop is connected to the quad via xbee.

About the direct digital structures you are right, Im using the 2D structure. What type of info…"

"Hi.

Im developing my own PID controller because this is my undergraduate final project. Im not only developing the PID controller, Im also trying some other digital controllers based on a linear model I've done based on experimental data, but us…"

"Curt Olson: Thanks a lot for your answer.

I have been trying to tune the kalman filter of the VN-100 and I havent been able to obtain a acceptable behaviour, at least good enough for the quadrotor Im building.

What you are saying is that you are…"

"Hi Curt Olson,

I also have the VN-100 from Vectornav, but I have been having some problems with it, I was wondering if you could help me a bit with it. Are you using the default parameters of the kalman filter? or did you use your own?

The issue…"
