"I'm okay with the MSP. Depends on what the task at hand is. I ended up using a BeagleBone over the MSP because it was easier in my opinion to deal with serial data using a Linux environment. You can get more creative/hacky with things.."
"Sure did. What I did was use a BeagleBone Black hosting a NodeJS webapp that I wrote, a MongoDB database I built, a few shell and python scripts that I also wrote, and finally MAVProxy for quadcopter functions."
"I was having the same problem as OP and tried this. I can confirm this solved my problem! Thanks"
"awesome, timeinair sounds like it can help!! thank you!"
"where did you find something about 'timeinair' ?"
"Yeah, I think that's exactly what we're going to do. We used the google maps API, where we use the polygon tool to select our waypoints, store those latts/lngs into an array, and pass that string array as an argument into a python file that calls…"
Hello, I've searched all over Google and a few forums with no direct answer. I've been reading some documentation here ( https://pixhawk.ethz.ch/mavlink/ ) and here ( http://qgroundcontrol.org/mavlink/waypoint_protocol ) but still haven't had any…
"Ok, after hours of research I've concluded it was the compass settings. There is a bug that cuts the motors when switching from Acro to Stab mode if the APM things the quad is upside down. My compass settings were at ROTATION_NONE. I rebuilt the…"
"Could it have been due to a GPS glitch? I had it disabled"
Hello, I'm not great at reading logs so I was wondering if someone can help me out. I just finished 1-axis Rate/P-I-D tuning and decided to do a test flight. It was flying well in stabilize mode. Then I switched to Acro mode, then back to stabilize…
Hello all. I have an APM 2.6 w/ a 3DR power module running ArduCopter 3.2.1 [Latest] on a FW 450 quad frame flying beautifully in stabilize mode after some manual PID tuning sessions. When I flip my flight-mode switch into Loiter mode it also works…
"Edit: The transmitter still works even after it gets pixelated. I can hear beeps when I press the menu button and navigate, but I just don't see a picture... Maybe that might help someone."
So I purchased a T9X and a FrSky DJT module w/ a D8R-II Plus rx to get optimal performance out of the T9X. I did tons of research before I attempted the mod. I read guides from RCHACKER and Oscar Liang, I even watched a few YouTube videos. After…
What I'm trying to do is use an MSP430 to capture user input (non flight-related) which relays this data ( ~1 byte) to the APM 2.6 flight controller which sends that data down to the ground control station via the 915Mhz 3DR radios. Is there a way…
"We've decided to go with an APM 2.6 as this looked like a great deal from ebay ( http://www.ebay.com/itm/APM-2-6-ArduPilot-Flight-Controller-GPS-3DR... ). I just bought a Turnigy 9x from HobbyKing because of the great price and the support/guidance…"
"This looks interesting. Thank you!"
