"I don't really see how Adaptive Control is different than making the weights used in PID control variable/based on the current conditions of the craft. Ie, assign each "rotor" a "lift" value. If, at the maximum correction situation, the craft does…"
I'm working on my first autopilot. For the moment, it's just the GPS part of the autopilot. I have a GPS that is outputting NMEA data and I'm trying to develop a parser for that data. I'm using the parallax propeller and It's 1:42 in the morning so…
"I realize this is a pretty old topic but I wanted to comment on Chris Anderson's post:
"Unfortunately I can't use the Sailsoft one (GPSSIML) because it only supports com ports 1-4. Like most people with laptops, I don't have a dedicated serial port,…"

"If you mean what I think you mean when you say "Mission Planning Software" I think we might be doing the same thing. I'm currently working on a website that would allow users to update any number of "controllable" devices in real time. I say…"
"Well, you could try to pick a "colorful" target. Like a viewer wearing a bright green or some other color shirt or hat. That way it wouldn't be hard to track"
"I was wondering if you could help me with creating the schematic for a SD socket. I noticed that with your application of the SD socket you had various resistors connected to some pins. Why do you have these resistors and what pins are they on? I…"

What CAD Software did you use for your board? I'm using Eagle and it doesn't have the Sayno or the Fairchild and that's really annoying :("

I've trying to find some motor controllers for my UAV blimp and I ran across the TB6552FL by Toshiba(Datasheet @: http://www.semicon.toshiba.co.jp/docs/datasheet/en/LinearIC/TB6552F...)I'm working on a Eagle library…
"With 7.5 LiPo how do you get around the motor voltage problem: my motors at least are "used" to 3.4 volts and I'm not sure what would happen if I put 7.4V, do you use different motors or do you do something altogether?
EDIT: Hey, I found a HBridge…"

"How do you supply voltage to your blimp? I noticed that the motor controller chip requires a minimum of 4.5V. How do you manage this assuming you are using the stock 3.6V Li-Ion battery that comes with the blimp? Does the chip handle 3.6V?"
"Perhaps you might take the new parallax product, the Propeller for a Spin?
hehe.. If you are dropping the Stamp you should consider trying out the propeller. I myself am using it and it's very nice. I've run into the problems you are having on the…"

"If the BoeBot is indeed supplying power to the GPS module, hooking up the Raw pin to the BoeBot's VSS terminals should ground the Raw pin."
Hello everybody again,While this isn't specifically for an actual UAV, I still need some help and it does kinda have to do w/ making a UAV(sure....)I have a eSKY Transmitter for my new Heli and I want to wire up a joystick to the transmitter instead…
Hello everybody!Here's my setup:-Esky Honey Bee RC 4CH FP Ready-to-Fly Helicopter-Parallax Propeller-Memsic 2125 Dual-axis Accelerometer-GPS-A willingness to run the heli into the ground as many times as it takes :PAnd here's what I've learned about…
"I don't personally own a SuperCub so I don't know it's layout but would it be possible to simply install "normal" servos? Using the 5 wire servos would probably take up a cog and why do that when it can be done for you on the servo?"
