"Hi Alex...
I am so interested in your mission control application. I am struggling with instrument cockpit and Google Earth API. I have many bugs in my application and am finding out mathematical formula for controlling instrument cockpit. if you…"

Hello all, I'm currently using the the MTK3329 for my autopilot application, but i just can't figure out how to set it up as i want. the documentation is sparse, and and very had to…Continue

If you have some raw input - output data i could give it a go myself and see what kind of transfer function i can compute. It doesn't need…"

You are absolutely right, I have forgotten to mention that I used this offset signal amplified for high resultion ground altitude, this is why I need the offset and gain :P. However, amplify your altitude signal is a good tip to…"
Pitlab commented on Alex Pabouctisids's blog post Autonomous Cross Country Glider (AXCG) project"@Hector, If you want to derive altitude signal, you don't have to add mean sea level offset from DAC, because deriving the signal you will loose the DC component. Also using DAC and amplifier before derivativing is additional source of the…"

I have passed you my mail in a private message. I am using GCC as well, but I will try to port it to G++ as I use Eigen library for my algorithms.
About the…"
Alex Pabouctisids commented on Alex Pabouctisids's blog post Autonomous Cross Country Glider (AXCG) project"The book focuses entirely on the FreeRTOS API, and is not really focused on the STM32 itself. The FreeRTOS comes with an entire library of different ports (for different MCU and compilers), and the STM32 Cortex M3 is one of them. Implementing into…"
Héctor García de Marina commented on Alex Pabouctisids's blog post Autonomous Cross Country Glider (AXCG) project"@Alex
Thank you very much for your book recommendation, I will check it out. Is it really usefull for ST32 Cortex M3? What I do not want is to spend so much time in low-level issues. I came from an AT91SAM7 (ARM7), and I want to do the…"
Alex Pabouctisids commented on Alex Pabouctisids's blog post Autonomous Cross Country Glider (AXCG) project"@ Mark, I'm the first to say that the current AHRS is too expensive ;). The VN-100 was used as it provided an easy to use and robust sensor which allowed the project to be completed in the short time frame that was fixed. the next step is…"

"Have you tried a simo on ailerons to roll rate/ yaw rate?"
Héctor García de Marina commented on Alex Pabouctisids's blog post Autonomous Cross Country Glider (AXCG) project"First of all, nice work Alex.
I sum to Mark Colwell if we can check out your firmware code. I want to introduce the FreeRTOS to my ST32, at the moment my scheduler is static, and it would be nice if I can check it out.
Also I want to know if you…"

Hello all.
I've been a long time lurker on this website, checking it almost daily. The last couple of months i was working on my bachelors project which consisted of designing from scratch an autopilot for a RC glider. During that time, this website proved to be invaluable and i would like to share my work hoping…
