Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest
recreational I am the creator of the Dreamshield project. No telling if it will "take off" (hehe) but i wanted to share the info with people!

"I can sure try - why dont you tell me a little more about what you have done initially...
What pins have you hooked up on the DNT900, and do you attempt any configuration (via UART) on the radio?"

"Sorry folks - Project is disbanded.
But if everything goes smoothly, I may release a much much more capable version! It's my groups senior design project! stand-alone, multivehicle, single-board, opensource goodness. Now, I will continue to be a…"

"I have a similar issue with two Jeti 77 opto's.... seemed like i would keep throttling up until all of a sudden they both kicked in real sudden, and then kept speeding up..... in any case the Jeti guys told me to add capacitors right before the…"
"Hey Joe! curious what specific sorts of questions you had regarding the dnt900. thanks!"
"Hey John,
Tell me what you think about this idea :

Hello All!I am working on a interface board that will allow the DNT900 radio to plug in to XBee sockets (specifically the XBee900 pro, and those of the same pinout). The DNT900 is cheap, ($70 per radio), 900 Mhz, up to 1 watt @ 115200 baud [or…
"I wish I knew a good programmer to help me with this!!
It would be great to interface this with an android-based phone, to display all the flight variables to/from the UAV - after all its just a matter of programming! Any one interested in…"

"I agree - I think they are a fantastic radio. I have been working on a project to interface them to the arduino mega to make an open source, multi-vehicle, fully configurable control system. Whole kit (two full arduino shields + radios will cost…"
"I started this project to suffice a need I had on another project - a custom UAV. I would like to share images of the competed base-station that I will use for my UAV project.

NEW BOARDS - and PICS.
This pic shows the comm. Looking very good! The base is sending data at 25Hz, and the remote is sending stats at 10Hz. The thicker bars are data sent or received. the very thin ones are txstatus responses from the…"

"New boards are shipped. Parts to populate it are shipped. I will post pics when they arrive. ETA ~ 1 week"
"Just hooked this up and measured the actual duty cycle of transmission. Keep in mind, both base-station and remote are sending all the flight variables at 25Hz, 115200kb/s baud.
The base-station is transmitting at 8% duty cycle (8% of the time its…"

"Lots of progress when school isn't in session! hehe
-- A little logo has been made up - simple, but clean
-- Sourceforge added! It is currently empty, but i will host the source code here
-- Added programming modes! Now, If its the first…"

"Minor update - Renamed to Dreamshield 16
we now have the TLC5940 chip driving 16 powered servo outputs with up to 4096 steps of resolution (2^12 aka 12-bit) Board has been gone over completely. Added (gnd,+5v, data) connection for GPS, I2C…"
