"One thing that is sort of not clear is how the motors are mounted. Does the bottom-shaft portion of the motor just sit on the hole in the rubber mount in a tight fit? (Picture 12 in the document)"
"This is good! btw, I am guessing this is the same project about which Chris was talking to the show hosts on one of the podcasts on All Things That Fly..."
The people from Monash University seem to have used the IR sensors for quite a while. One of the ways, as described in that paper is that you assume a sinusoidal profile and use the peak to peak values voltage you get on…"
I would suggest that you look at the paparazzi source code, I was able to tease out the equations that they use to estimate attitude from the IR sensor information. I don't remember which file you need to look at off the top of my head…"
Hi all,We are using the thermopile sensors to estimate attitude of our airplane. The problem is that the paparazzi wiki mentions a nonlinear relationship between the angle and the voltage. Therefore, we can't use it unless we calibrate it…

Just an addition to what is being said here - We finally got the GPS coordinates from the LS 20031 after setting the baud rate as 57600 in Jordi's code as well as in the serial monitor window.
