"Got my first DNT900 connected UART->FTDI->USB so theoretically I have a serial terminal to the radio now. But without the radio software (which was included with the dev kits but not the radio themselves) I'm afraid I'm not sure where to start..."
"I was just thinking about how I could replace a regular R/C radio with a couple arduinos and I found this page. Very exciting! I would love to be able to combine the control and telemetry radios so I had one less frequency and radio to worry…"
I recently heard a story that went something like this: A guy had an R/C helicopter with a video camera and an analog video transmitter. He was using carbon blades and was having glitchy video. He switched to wooden blades and the video cleared…
"Some of the pins are listed in defines.h, but not nearly all of them, and my confidence is low that these numbers are actually pin assignments in all cases.
Ultimately I want to code an autopilot using LQR rather than PID, but I've got a lot to…"
I am looking for some documentation about input/output assignments on the ardupilot.For example, it boasts 16 ADCs and from the code it looks like the three gyros are on channels 0, 1, & 2 and the three accels are on channels 3, 4, & 5. Is there…
We did consider IP cams, but digital encoding and compression can introduce latency into the video that we wanted to avoid since we plan to eventually pilot the helicopter from this video.
Hello DIYDrones!Sorry for not lurking any longer before posting but I have a deadline :~)I am working on a project to develop augmented-reality systems for pilots. We won't be able to utilize real aircraft until our project reaches higher levels of…
