Superwalloon commented on healthyfatboy's blog post Fotokite Phi Tethered Quadrotor on IndieGoGo
"Fotokite has a proven pro tethered model where the power is provided from the ground, just have a look at their website. It is based on this experience, and public request, that Fotokite has decided to go with a commercial end-user model. The good…"

Superwalloon commented on Laurent Eschenauer's blog post A consumer flying camera based on a ducted fan UAV design
"I'm curious to understand on which part of the Fleye the pattent(s) would apply. Searching a bit I found that a single blade copter with basically flaps or ailerons below the flow already existed since several years - google on "kk single copter"…"

"Innovation from Belgium, I like that ! (I'm belgian too) :-)
Wandering if there is any capability for realtime video processing ? This would open doors to many different applications and use cases, such as following/tracking objects or people,…"

Superwalloon commented on Marco Robustini's blog post Introducing the Lily Camera
"I wonder when GoPro will realize that when they'll release a new camera model with digitally stabilized video, with better quality than Parrot's BeBop they won't be able to follow up with orders. For most hobby shots I really don't care at all about…"

Superwalloon commented on Chris Anderson's blog post AirMap, new site to show safe flight zones
"Very interesting. Just wondering how this will include all the legal aspects of each and every country... If we take Europe for instance there is no uniformity at all. Furthermore depending whether you have a cam attached or not, or whether you fly…"

Superwalloon commented on Chris Anderson's blog post Percepto, an add-on computer vision module for drones, now on Indigogo
"@Raviv, ok, looking good :-) So which are the base sensors that Percepto needs to rely on ? Accelerometers and gyros, but does Percepto also need other sensors such as compas, barometer and GPS or would these be optional only ? If you don't have GPS…"

Superwalloon commented on Chris Anderson's blog post Percepto, an add-on computer vision module for drones, now on Indigogo
"@Raviv, thanks for the quick reply. OK so this has to be an APM controller for now. For mini quads there is the APM mini, off course, but it would be so cool to have this running with a naze32. Naze32 also supports mavlink I believe... Any plans to…"

Superwalloon commented on Chris Anderson's blog post Percepto, an add-on computer vision module for drones, now on Indigogo
"@Raviv, does Percepto rely on a flight controler which has a GPS, or would it also work with one that has only a barometer and compas ? If the weight of Percepto can be reduced by removing its shell etc as I read in a previous comment, how about…"

Superwalloon commented on Raviv Raz's blog post Percepto - Computing core designed for supercomputers used to enhance drones capabilities.
"A smaller version that could be carried by a 250 quad racer would be pretty nice... I can imagine having an assisted fly controller for obstacle avoidance... How much weight would the unit have ?"

Superwalloon commented on Gary McCray's blog post My thoughts on the state of affairs.
"Excellent summary. I live in Belgium, this is not easier here. There is currently a complete ban on multicopters unless you flight them at a legal flight club. The DGTA (kind of equivalent to the FAA) is willing to issue new rules which are…"

Superwalloon commented on Fly Like a Bird Team's blog post FPV + Oculus Rift Kickstarter
"To use the Rift in FPV there is already a solution on the market called "Transporter3D". While this solution is pretty expensive, it has the advantage to work with standard fpv equipment, ie vtx & vrx. If I don't care too much about the…"

Superwalloon commented on AKRCGUY's blog post 3DR IRIS+ Beginners Guide (Part 1 of 3)
"Nice vid. Hope you will get at some point to explaining beginners how their copters are built, ie which are the various components, their respective roles (what are esc for ? What is an IMU ? etc). Make a vid opening the IRIS+ and explaining the…"
