About Me:
Just a hobbyist, looking for difficult projects to try out.
Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest
I have been building drones for a few years now, and love all of the small ancillary electronics projects that it requires. Also, the mathematics is incredible as well.

"So cool to finally see this come to fruition!! Bart sent me an email and I could hardly believe my eyes! That was even one of the cases we looked at! With regard to the connection to multiple things simultaneously via BT...the answer is it depends…"
"Wow...Congratulations Chris!"
"SO, I'd like to hear from the Mods / Devs...are there specific and real issues here? This seems to me to be a set of rants that could be easily remedied with a mention in the documentation. Perhaps a "Best Practices" section that says, "Hey, it is…"
"@Chris - This is cool to see. I bounced back here after another long time away because I got a friend of mine interested in the ArduCopter projects (always good to have more folks involved!) It got me thinking about the Bluetooth-XBee project we…"
"I saw the same thing on the booms...has anybody ever tested this type of setup (with a tilt on the booms)??"
"How exactly do the intend to secure these $1000 delivery bots...
Am I the only one who can see the possibility of thieves ordering up some tacos to someone else's place, then when the quad shows up, disabling it, removing the GPS and becoming the…"

"I've been on and off this site for some time. When I could, I have contributed what I thought were interesting directions, or tidbits of data, and even hardware designs. I sincerely enjoy spirited discussions like this one. I am going to say a…"
"Hey so I have to be out that way for a meeting at the Supercomputing Center, how do I score a tour? get to hang out?"
"This is so awesome...I was about half way into the design on one of these for my ArduStation HUB project...now I can just drop in a header and add it in.
I'll be watching for release date and pricing. Assuming this is going to be OS, can we get…"

"Looks like fun, but you are right, the lack of size of this exhibit is disappointing, especially in light of the overall expanse of the facility as a whole."
"@Jordi - Any idea on timeline for software? ArduPlane support for an original ArduPilot board?"
"I like the landing gear...makes me want to spend time on auto-takeoff and landing."
"@basshead / Mike- Even at that, they don't need to be ABOVE my property (air rights extend vertically from the perimeter of one's land) to see what is going on ON my property. How many of us live in areas where we can see what is going on in our…"
"I had an older one of these with a different carb (changed it over to a similar dual needle) - think of it as being in between an electric and a typical glow / gas model. The sound is great (if that matters to you.) Mine was on an UltraStick from…"
"These are all very similar...the Mongoose and the Sparkfun parts are the same, except that the Mongoose adds a Barometric pressure sensor. The x-IMU is a very different animal - it uses a PIC uController and IMU-3000 rather than the ITG-3200 paired…"
"@Gary, yep - I missed it."
