"I see. My final year project is an autonomous boat.
The way I calculated the approximate motor power needed for the boat was to scale the size and its motor to the size of the boat I would be using .
My supervisor advised this method, and it…"

"As a starting point why don't you look at existing quad copters that can carry the payload you require (3kg) and scale the weight and propeller speed and size to the one you intend to make.
This is the way that has been recommended to me to find…"

"I understand it is a risk, but it is a risk I will take due to it operating within controlled areas"
Hi,Can someone give me a quick break down on how to set up an ESC with a 3DR APM 2.5?This is for a fully autonomous application- so no transmitter or receiver is incorporated with the control system.Am I correct in thinking that you take the…
"You hope what works for me? The setup in the image is not yet complete. The BEC is required because I need 6 to7v to the servo and the internal BEC in the ESC is much smaller."
"I would really appreciate a response.
Can someone have a stab at how the battery connects to the system and what I do with the remaining ESC wires that are not connected to the ESC.
Someone please respond!"

Hi guys,Can someone help me wire these all together so that the servo receives 6-7 V from the external BEC.The APM 2.5 needs to be connected somehow too.There is no transmitter or receiver by the way- it is for an autonomous boat.Thanks
"I'm new at this but look at Ardupilot APM 2.5.
There is a lot of online forum support for it and code written for it and I think you'll find that it is the most commonly used autopilot on diydrones.
The Mission Planner software also allows you to…"

Hi DIY drones,I am creating an autonomous boat.This is my schematic so far:I guess the above are my options? Can anyone suggest the best method and how to get the UBEC connected to the ESC?I am stuck on the powering of the servo. The waterproof…
