  • You're right Thomas on all accounts. From Jordi's last response, it is a series diode.
    which is fine, but I was looking at the diagonal picture of the board it really looked
    as the cathode was tied to the ground plane, I'm sure it isn't though....just looks
    that way from that angle. It's all good....sorry for controversy :) .

    Michael, you diagram is different from mine. The negative side of the diode goes to the input of the 5Volts regulator. I will release soon the schematic so you will be able to look for your self but the green "square" or the negative side of the diode is not ground..

    Is that a part you need for your washing machine Jordi??

    Michael, oops you made me doubt. The diode is actually correct, i double check it. I just a polarity protection for the raw input...
  • well, I guess I'm kind of late here, but for me the meaning is quite obvious. it's to make me buy that board on first sight. right?

    Normally only one way comms - but there is a pin where you can change any variable or group of variables then reboot in flight, same commands as with console. But I am not supporting it for the users, this is insanely risky without full knowledge of the system.
    I am targetting fire-and-forget philosophy. Because the less equipment you have in the field, the better it works. But the system must be fully tested...
  • Krysztof? You will be able to change the mission data in flight, that is what was meant... LoL a virus specially written for amature UAV enthusiasts? Somehow i don't think so...

    Krysztof, does your new Autopilot support 2way communication?
  • Nice job on PiattoArduIMU Jordii!!
    (flat arduimu in arduino speak! lol)
    I knew I went to sleep too early (east cost) :( waaahhh!!!
    New functionality brought out to the headers as well..fantastic!!

    'Will be able to be programmed in flight ect.'
    What the???
    And how about viruses?
  • That's the new HW that you said?
