"I think you have the problem on its head. Porting tends to expose bugs, bodges and poor architecture in extant flight control software. This ends up being good for everyone in that it provides a great mechanism for unearthing and fixing these things…"
"It just greatly expands your freedom to play with different types of systems. We're obviously still dev'ing this, but the goal would be so you don't have to guess what flight controller software you might want before you buy your hardware. For some…"
The last week or so we've spent porting a version of the AeroQuad AQ32Plus code over to run on the AshimaCore board. One of our goals has been to get a common board that can run (or has the hooks put in place to run) several of the more popular open…
"I've attached a somewhat nicer plot of the mag read-out (with fit).
Also got slightly shouted at by Ian (my buddy that actually did most of the board design) for not making it clear that stuff is still "moving" on the board as we develop it, so the…"

"> I see what you're getting at but if you look at the stm32 processors, you can't really expect them to handle something like the point cloud library on real time depth data
Completely agree. The stm32 gives the elbow-room to not have to do…"

"The crystal is on there just to get good clocks. The STM32F4 Discovery board has two crystals on it, for example.
The mag location was an issue in design. The transmitter shielding (and a bunch of the other static stuff on a vehicle) do distort…"

I wanted to share with you a board that a couple of us have been working on for the last few months. We put it together to be an easy-to-access ARM Cortex-M4F flight controller. We also got a little frustrated with the STM peripherals library, so…
