About Me:
I am a mechanical engineer, often programming for embedded systems.
Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest
I like designing and playing with UAVs, since it involves a lot of domains I am interested in: mechanical design, electronics, programming, control theory... This is a great way to learn. Watching its own machine flying is really enjoyable.

"@Tyler: Wow! Your project is really impressive !
@Scott: The PID tuning was not too complicated.I have the feeling that this quad is a bit less responsive than others, but this may change, as I could implement a better control method in the future."

"At the time I started this project, I was not aware of the IOIO board. But maybe it would have been a better choice, because of the smaller board size."
"@lot: I've already seen the Flone project before. It seems nice and cute! Using a Multiwii board is probably the safest option, but for this build, I really wanted to use as little external electronics as possible.

@Hugues: all the smartphone source code has been written by me. It is not so long, it's about 1000 lines of code. I have not tested the Wi-Fi range yet, but I expect it to be up to 100m in favorable conditions, like the…"

Hi all, I would like to present my latest project, a scratch-built quadcopter with a special autopilot: an Android smartphone !The phone is onboard (under the battery), and actually computes how to stabilize the drone. Of course, a phone cannot be…
