Paparazzi Arduino Passion: projects, news, tutorials, all Arduino resources you ever need. My QuaXCopter Project. Hi Everyone. I've been working on my Quadrotor project for one year. My last attempt was not good enough to fly. The control board worked well, but... i had problem with the frame. The frame was not enough rigid to absorb the mechanical vibrations coming from the motors. Some months later, I decided to give the project another try, with new changes on the control board and definitely on the frame "the frame will be smaller". Stellaris Cortex-M3 microcontroller (LM3S5749).IMU sensor 9DOF sensor stick.Wireless communication via Bluetooth or RF, (Bluetooth module UART and NRF24L01 module SPI).Temperature Sensor.Sonar Sensor.USB connection. I would like to show you some pics of the control board: The rest of this month and the next one, I will work it on the firmware development. Would accept any suggestion or recommendations. Regards.
Arduino Tutorial - Learn electronics and microcontrollers using Arduino! So, I get two or three emails a day, all basically asking the same thing: "Where can I learn about electronics?" In general, most of these people have seen some of my projects and want to be able to build similar things. Unfortunately, I have never been able to point them to a good site that really takes the reader through a solid introduction to microcontrollers and basic electronics. I designed this tutorial course to accompany the Arduino starter pack sold at the Adafruit webshop. Follow these lessons for happiness and prosperity. Lesson 0 Pre-flight check...Is your Arduino and computer ready? Here are some recommended tools: If you need to get any soldering done, you may also want.... All of the content in the Arduino Tutorial is CC 2.5 Share-Alike Attrib. Love it? To some extent, the structure of the material borrows from: The impressively good "What's a microcontroller?" "Spooky Arduino" - Todbot's excellent (if fast-paced!)
MultiWii additional HOWTO overview 4: MultiWii release descriptions This post just combines the release descriptions of the last revisions. Release version 1.9 1.8 -> 1.9 - some factorizations between PPM sum receiver code & standard receiver code EXPERIMENTAL: integration of direct SBUS receiver thanks to the contribution of Captain IxI & Zaggo For this, you must use: - a MEGA board - the RX1 of the Serial 1 port - have a way to invert the input signal. more info here: EXPERIMENTAL: integration of SPEKTRUM satellite receiver thanks to the contribution of Danal Estes For this, you must use: - a MEGA board - the RX1 of the Serial 1 port It could be used also on ProMini board with some restrictions (exclusive GUI or Spektrum use) more info here: EXPERIMENTAL: integration of direct Serial RX, to command the multi from a Bluetooth+phone Signal for instance. thanks to Luis - many optimizations to reduce loop cycle - all in one FC: Quote:

Building a palm size quad-copter & Introducing a new simple flight controller Build the frame: I cut the aluminum tubes down to 10" long. I guess I can cut it shorter, but let's see how this go. One arm is now cut by half. The two half's are joined together with the other uncut arm to form a cross. They are then hot glued and screwed to 2 pieces of hobby ply wood (1/16" thick) And the finished frame: Drill holes that fit the motor mount & cut the two arms that would be the front and the back of the quads. The cut is necessary so that I can tilt the front and back motors. Tilting mechanism I found some aluminum tubes (also at local hobby shop). I use a heat gun to heat both the tubes and then I put some hot glue into the tubes, and then the round tubes are pressed inside. I tilt both of them about 8 degrees. The hot glue can be then melt with a heat gun so that I can twist to adjust the tilting angle. Install motors & ESC's 4 ESCs Power distribution I cut two pieces of copper clad PCB.

Heavy-Duty Quadrocopter - Imperial College Robotics Society Wiki From Imperial College Robotics Society Wiki Imperial College Robotics Society ( ICRS ) is a student-led university club aiming to increase robotics interest at Imperial College London and across the UK. We run workshops, competitions and lectures to teach about robotics, electronics and software as well as providing help (financial and technical) to students looking to start a robotics project. Our club was founded in November 2009, and since then we have entered a few student teams into the Eurobot competition, built 2 RepRap 3D printers and created a quadracopter with a fully 3D-printed chassis. ICRS is always looking for new members that want to learn about robotics or create cool projects. Projects For a full list of ICRS's projects, or to propose your own, please visit our projects page . ICRS-ARM Robotics Workshop 2012 ARM ran a fantastic Robotics Workshop at Imperial on the 7th of March! ARM Robotics Workshop ICRS Megabyte Talks Robotics Courses About ICRS
Arduino My older son recently started school and needed his own desk for doing homework. I wanted to make something nicer than a simple tabletop with legs, and realized that I could also build in a bit of fun for when the homework is finished. Both my boys and I still had space travel on our minds from our summer trip to Kennedy Space Center. The desk resides under my son's loft bed (which I also built), and stays closed until the homework is finished: When playtime begins, the lid flips up to reveal the Mission Control console: As I mentioned in the video, I painted the underside of the lid with magnetic primer. The programming of the console, which I posted to GitHub, has the Arduino and the Raspberry Pi working cooperatively. The EECOM panel contains four potentiometers that are each mapped to a 12-segment bargraph display. The CAPCOM panel has connections for the headset as well as volume controls. "C&WS" stands for Caution and Warning System.
