DIYDrones Store: New Products Available!

Hello everybody. I have some news here:1.-The shipping system right now is a nightmare for everybody (including me). Finally i found a good solution that will let me ship overseas for less than 5 dlls (under 4 oz). Yes i will accept First Class Mail soon, YEAHHH!!! It will be ready in two weeks.2.- The Infrared boards arrived, but i still waiting for some components in order to start the fabrication. Please be patient.3.- I ran out of ArduShield Kits!!!! Guys.. Let me breath! Tomorrow the new parts should arrive, sorry about that.Now lets talk about the new products:Ok ArduStation is now stocked, so you can order today and i will ship the same day (before 3pm California, Sun, Beach, Pacific time or 10pm Zulu time). You can buy it here.

As i already mentioned this in another post, I'm about to release the new ArduLogger in collaboration with Raúl Helvia and Eduardo Garcia (the Satellite guy) from Spain. Its an Atmega328@8Mhz and you can use it to data log the 6 analogs channels or data coming from the serial port:

(If you look carefully the picture, you will see my new Open Source ServoSwitch).And yeah! I finally entered to the gyro market. My goal is to one day offer everything you will need to build your own UAV and have an old school slogan like: "The official UAV store" or maybe "Satisfying all your UAV needs since 2009", LOL:

I'm offering right now the smallest LISY300AL breakout board. Same price as SparkFun and free shipping world wide (web?):

And for limited time i will offer the ultimate 6 degrees of freedom, super tiny IMU that can be adapted to your system very easily:

(Ardupilot just as size reference). Featuring the ADXL330 3g accelerometer and the famous LISY300AL with 300deg/sec. The best part is that you can upgrade it. You can choose between 4, 5 and 6 degrees of freedom by just soldering the gyros you need (without buffering underrun your Paypal account) and because the main board is vertical you can solder it to your current home made autopilot PCB or even in a breadboard!This pic shows with arrows the gyros you will need depending the configuration you may want:

Another pic of the back:

You can buy the IMU here, and you can buy the extra gyros from here.The diagrams and schematics of the boards:gyro_lisy_single_sch.pdfgyro_lisy_single_brd.pdfgyro_lisy_mother_sch.pdfgyro_lisy_mother_brd.pdfThanks for you support and for reading this!

  • Developer
    Earl, I do offer a sample program, is linked in the product page. Or what do you mean?
  • Developer
    Thomas, don't worry is not a big deal. Just connect the FTDI cable or the SF module and you don't have to connect ardustation to the battery.
  • Hi Jordi,
    I built the ar station. Display and everything seems to work. How about a PC test program to send to the XBee to test the station? I dont have my AP programed yet.

    Danilo Marques, you will need a few things to make your own autopilot:
    -IMU or infrared sensor in order to know your orientation.
    -GPS to know your position.
    -Microcontroller to process the data.
    -Servos, airplane and radio control.
    -Good understanding for C language.
    -Plenty of time and money (depends how careful you are).

    About the code you can barrow a lot of code from us, paparazzi and some google.

    Ron Carter,

    Thank you very much! No body expected about the Z sensors, we are fighting in multiple fronts right now to solve the problem.
