"but do we realy need parachutes ;)
just look at the vid where all engines are out at 700m height (and stayed disabled till the ground): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZkO-nhApgVA"
HiI know ArduIMU with its ST's gyros is rather outdated product but it is still one of the cheapest, smallest and lightest IMUs available.Thus, I'd like to share my FPV projects that are using ArduIMU v2. First is the AXN Floater Jet plane with…
"free falling with minimum throttle is usually ok but try to descend from high altitude with constant, but not too low speed.
yeah, I know about propeller turbulences etc.but the fact is other projects are much more stable in such conditions."
"hi,
I've just finished my quad based od the ArduIMU and Jose's source.
There is still some work to do with PID tunning but it flies quite stable even in high wind.
"your main loop is running at 100hz now.
isn't it to slow for a stable flight and what's the problem with the higher frequencies here (as far as I know most platforms work at more then 200hz and even astonishing 1khz) ?"
"I've done radio test and it seems something is wrong with roll channel reading. I use 8ch 2.4ghz receiver and didrones ppm encoder. number of channels is set to 8.
what is wrong with that configuration ?"
"hi,
I've just finished building of my ArduIMU JJ quadcopter and start testing.
what's strange copter reacts properly for pitch and yaw but not roll.
is it normal in AP mode 2 (stabilization assist mode) ?
