"Hi.
I played with getting a serial connection to get my phone sensor data over to an arduino.
Ages ago and it worked but required a fairly modded phone! Also, no integration with autopilot.
Have a look anyway progsrp.moonfruit.com"

"@Paul Yeah, i'd say conceptual approach is a little too advanced, great book though. Design for homebuilders is an excellent reccommendation, it's sitting beside my bed right now!"

"why is nobody watching from the windows !"
"AK8975 magnetometer is in my LG phone which is not exactly a good thing, 8-bit ADC :/"
"Very cool ! I like the wakeboarding system too, never seen that before."
"Some skills right there !
but like many things, you think you're awesome (and you look awesome) when you freestyle around the place, but if you actually set a challenge like "I'm going to slalom every one of those trees" you'll really improve ...…"

"well controlling the two servos allows them to be used as flaps with a bit extra code?? depending on your airframe of course"
"hmmmm, It will reduce drag a little because I imagine by sweeping it some wing will be hidden inside the fuselage, and a smaller wing area will reduce drag a bit (lift too).
The wing efficiency will also be reduced though, a swept wing promotes…"

"You know you can probably load it beyond it's max weight, it will just glide steeper but thats even beneficial for you...better wind penetration."
"Buy from DIYDrones, all the profits go to making awesome new products and to those who deserve it !
I thoroughly doubt the chinese will invest their profits in pioneering affordable autopilots
at least thats what i like to think :X"

"sooo from what i gathered off poor man GPS , If you could get both recievers to lock onto the same satelites then you're game?

"well perhaps factories or something can afford to install a motion capture thing, but thats about it?"
"brilliant !! haha ! And there I was fiddling with the serial ports and things like microbridge!
It's such a pain to use the 3rd party serial API's or microbridge, so I guess $50 isn't toooooo bad"
