Surprising but true - no blue screen of death and it didn't do a spiral of death into the rolling hills of Hertfordshire.

Hardware:

Netduin Mini - Code in C#

DiyDrones Mux

ArduImu v2

No fancy pid loops just some ugly code and lots of hot glue.

Since it worked well enough at bringing it all back to level flight i will  try some way point fluff next.

Did i mention how ugly it was:

private static void Stabalize()        

{            

bool pitchUp = _pitch > 0;            

bool rollRight = _roll > 0;            

_elevatorServo.Degree = pitchUp ? 90 + ServoAngle(_pitch, 0) : 90 - ServoAngle(_pitch, 0);            

_aileronServo.Degree = rollRight ? 90 + ServoAngle(_roll, 0) : 90 - ServoAngle(_roll, 0);        

}
private static Int16 ServoAngle(double currentAngle, double desiredAngle)        

{            

double error = Abs(Abs(desiredAngle) - Abs(currentAngle));             if (error < 1) return 0;            

if (error < 2) return 5;            

if (error < 5) return 10;            

if (error < 10) return 30;            

if (error < 20) return 50;            

if (error < 30) return 70;            

return 90;        

}

 Cheers
