"Hi Jesse .. I am forwarding the GNSS data to a companion computer and calculating the difference between actual and perceived position along the way .. As I think you are suggesting, the performance of the EKF without GNSS depends on the quality of…"
The drift rate on internal gyros has been reduced since the first generation Pixhawk, and the extended Kalman filter has been improved. How has this effected the ability of a plane to follow routes? How often does it need GPS in order to keep flying…
"It depends on how deep into autonomy that you want to advance. After you understand propellers, motors, ESCs, Power Distribution, Power Modules, RC Radios, Telemetry Radios, Flight Controllers, GNSS Sensors, etc.; you may want to proceed with…"
"I successfully installed drivers and verified the telemetry radio connects in Windows 10. The optimal approach is to plug your telemetry radio into your laptop, run Windows Update, and select Optional Updates. The proper Silicon Labs CP210X USB to…"
Some types of aerostructures are not RF transparent at 2.4GHz, and some aircraft designs use internal RF shielding. Both types require externally mounted RC antennas. We are fabricating an aircraft using carbon fiber aerostructures that are not RF…
"Hi Ward, We host in person drone building workshops -- da Vinci Build a Drone Workshops -- and we have done similar Workshops virtually with a local host such as a High School science teacher. We have even done some entirely virtual workshops in…"
"The current handling of your system is determined by your gauge of wire. There are many types of battery connectors other than the XT series. Select a connector with diameter slightly larger than your wire. If your wire slips into the solder cup…"
Endangered Snow Leopards and their habitat are under threat, KwF to use drones to protect these elusive cats of the HimalayasFor more than a decade, Kashmir World Foundation (KwF) has been operating aircraft around the world protecting endangered…
"Hi Nick, You could work with an aircraft as small as an F450 or fixed wing as small as Nano Talon. Smaller the better for learning. Easy to pack, easy to setup, and all relatively safe. If you want to learn how to integrate DroneKit, OpenCV,…"
"Please share the cad files so others can try and/or adapt!"
"Depends on whether you are a photographer and want something to lift your camera, or you want to work with your copter and camera. If you want to work a bit, you might try and F450 frame built copters. They are similar to the Phantom, but much more…"
"Hi Escobar .. People recommend what they find most useful, and for many people Telem1 is for telemetry and Telem2 is for companion computer .. The connection works just as well with USB, with a connection string that is identical for all companion…"
"HI Ashish .. You can "tune" ESCs via a BlHeli parameter set, but normally that would not be required to operate your quad .. Also flight controller parameter tuning should not be required for you to operate your quad. Go ahead and fly using all…"
"Hi Ashish ... it might be easier to ask questions by sending an email to info@KashmirWorldFoundation.org or Ronald@KashmirWorldFoundation.org
The "RC" port is the PPM RC input and the "SB" port is the PPM output. Zener diode is not required because…"
