  Hello, I had to close to the selling as after testing we had a problem with the ms5611 module, the code said "Can't read PROM"

  when connecting this module alone on an arduino, it seems to work with IIC.

  We need to check those modules alone with the BBB without the BBBmini

  Hello,

  Thanks Mirko

  here is the purchase link : http://www.ebay.fr/itm/FULLY-ASSEMBLED-RTF-BBB-MINI-FLIGHT-CONTROLL...

  I don't know why, but the item is not visible on ebay.com

  We will definitly not earn a lot of money with those boards as they were mainly be build for internally use. But if the selling is profitable, sure we will give something back for this awesome work.

  The BBB arm board is far better than raspberry pi in a GPIO interrupt driven processes perspective.

  Sincerely,

  Philippe Crochat

  @Anemos Technologies

  I think you can post the purchase link here. But don't forget to give something back, when you earn a lot of money with that kit ;-).

  Hello, We have just made a batch of 30 ready to use, already soldered BBBmini boards. If that does interest someone and if the group owner allows it, we can provide a purchase link here.

  "Flying BeagleBone Green" is very nice instructions as always by Mirko.

  Hi Patrick

  Wires are connected to P7 Telemetry/UART4 I followed the instructions from this link https://pixhawk.org/peripherals/8266 which also includes the relevant link to Github. I used a Raspberry Pi to upload the program to the ESP. I initially tried PlatformIO on windows but ran into problems.

  It's running as an access point and is connected to 3.5V

  At the moment I'm using an ESP8266-0 which has an internal aerial. Before I mounted the BBB to the quad I tested it with a ESP8266-7 with external aerial and it worked fine. However I ruined one of the connections. (I've got another one on order). I had to wire the ESP8266-07 slightly differently to the -0 model.

  I've only flown it for a few minutes at close quarter and didn't experience any problems with the radio control. Time will tell though.

  Hi Jon,

  nice copter and good progress!

  Have a look at /var/APM/logs/ for the flightlogs.

  Hi Mirko & Linus

  First short flight of my BBBMini was successful. Only flew in stabilise mode on std pid settings, it felt quite stable. Both IMUs were working fine and no problems with the telemetry ESP8266.Would you please let me know where the log files are located. I have tried to locate them but failed.

  Thank you for all your work that you have put into this project.
