"Hi,

Why don't you try dronekit? It's a project intended just for that sort of applications and is supported by 3DR

Gonzalo Garat replied to Gonzalo Garat's discussion Porting Arduino I2C code to AP_HAL_I2C for Custom Sensor integration
"Hi Craig,

THANKS for your comment!
I do not intend to reinvent the wheel, I'm just trying to keep it "simple". After all, there's the user loop in the arducopter firmware for a reason. 
For other applications I have done as you said using either…"

Hi,I saw a few posts on this group describing how to integrate some sensors but was unable to find how to actually port lets say the Wire.h library from older Arduino distributions. I want to know how to do this for Pixhawk and for the older…

Gonzalo Garat commented on Dennis Okeefe's blog post Using my APM as a data logger for a dragster....
"I tried reducing the frecuquency but for some reason when I remove :
if (g.log_bitmask != 0) { Log_Write_Data(DATA_AP_STATE, ap.value); }from arducopter.pde the whole thing crashes."

Hi,I inted to use the APM on long term flights and de 4-16MB onb the board don't seem to be enough unless y drastically reduce the smapling frequency on the APM.The most important part to me is to get the APM to only log accelerometers, baro and GPS…

Gonzalo Garat replied to Gonzalo Garat's discussion New HUD for FPV (MAVLINK compatible)
"OPENSOURCE DEFINATELY as my intention is to see it being developed by as many cool minded people as possible.
Another aspect is that I love coding in python but it would be intresting getting some help so that we can develop a C version of it which…"
