space_nut commented on Jordi Muñoz's blog post 'ArduIMU V3 is finally here!'
Is there somewhere I can sign up for an email? i.e. when ArduIMU v3 is ready for order? I have been working with v1 and v2 boards..
space_nut replied to Vladimir Popov's discussion 'ArduPilot Mega + non-Mega ArduIMU. Is it possible ?'
I've been using the Ardupilot with Arduino 0018 version code. This allows you to use attach more than 2 servos using servo.attach and writeMicroseconds commands. I've tested it with 3 outputs but 4 should work fine.
I…

gr8 2 hear from you Dr. Mike
Sounds like you have had quite the adventure with this design. Look forward to hearing more about your cam-board
Did you reprogram ArduIMU to control servos directly or are you taking the output and feeding them to…
space_nut replied to Nathaniel Caner's discussion 'FPV hardware questions'
Not a big expert but I'm testing a few bits and pieces.
I use the Range Video stuff and it works fairly well. I still use XBEE telemetry because, even with the OSD, you can get out of range quite easily.
I also send up a Sony MHS-PM1…
Dr Mike Black replied to space_nut's discussion 'Camera Stabilization using ArduIMU'
Hi Space,
yes...lol....
We have a gimbal camera mounted beneath said airframe, with a ArduIMU mounted at the top of the gimbal itself.
Doing it this way has rendered allot of computations irrelevant, so that when the aircraft rolls or pitches,…

groundspeed vs ground_speed
space_nut replied to Darren Ng's discussion 'Test Suite : Throttle Test~'
Could this be a D13/D11 thing?
space_nut commented on Nathaniel Caner's video
Thanks for sharing your flight. Great to see you up in the air, finally.
What camera are you using?
space_nut commented on Chris Anderson's blog post 'Using drones to monitor water use? Why?'
This kind of solution seems to make little sense here in North America but in the developing world or war torn countries it may not be a bad fit.
Yes, it's easy to envision cell phone or even satellite comms as the appropriate tech - mind you,…
space_nut commented on jasonshort's blog post 'ArduPilot Auto Launch Testing'
This is nice. The old 2.6 Autolaunch would drift depending on your tuning.
Lemme get this straight - you are keeping roll@0, pitch@whatever and course@ launch value until you attain the required height?
space_nut commented on Nathaniel Caner's blog post '"From The Ground Up" : One persons experience with DIY drones and ArduPilot - Part One'
Great to see your progress, Nathaniel.
Looking forward to more great news
space_nut replied to jasonshort's discussion 'Ardupilot 2.7 Beta 4'
Hey Jason,
Does this mean I can get 4 channel control from the original Ardupilot board? I'll need to solder a few more jumpers then?

RC transmitter with telemetry
Posted on July 5, 2010 at 4:45pm 3 Comments 0 Likes
Here's a nicely priced Hitec 2.4 GHz transmitter with built-in telemetry. Perhaps an upgrade for our groundstation?
For now, the sensor is only for battery condition but the plan is to have more sensors. Perhaps we can use the data channel as-is..
Interesting new tri-copter

There is a big brother (6 rotors) and this mini version. Still in prototype stage but great performance and payload capability.
The whole article is here…
