HBK 2 heli autopilot

[Bazzawombat]

where did you get the 3 axis accellerometer & 2 + 1 axis gyro? Where can we get specs on these?

[tvane1225]

thats sick... i kinda wanted something like that so i can mount a camera on it take aerial photos and stuff for like homemade movies... or even to take to skirmish as like aerial spotter... so many useful applications...

[Shaffooo]

Hi,

Which software are you using for plotting graphs and what do they represent?

[vartallion]

Hi, do you have the schematic of the board? And may I know what program is that you're using to monitor the stability?

[kubawasak]

it's only auto gyroscope, not autopilot

[Flight1142]

Good job. It seems very useful to fly beyond reach of your sight.

[mraperish]

awsome!

[swraman]

I did the same thing for a project class this semester. only used a accelerometer (no gyros) so we couldnt get rid of the accelerometer "drift" but it worked out pretty well. got it to fly stably for a good minute.

[nrm4life]

nice work.

[mdivinc]

What a waste of my time!  It means nothing teathered. take it out and let it fly. That crap will just fall out of the sky. Your only fooling yourself.

[heberorozco]

nobody likes you...

[qrrak]

you are really stupid. even if it does not fly, im sure he gained lots of experience from this study.

[marcebut]

good job!!!

[dodoshlodo]

how hard is it to do something like this??

[suckmynobs]

go try.

[christychackojohn]

Can you sell one for me.?

[Dowva]

Hey that's a pretty neat design.. Really impressive, and to be honest I am inspired to try doing something similar myself.. could you mention what 3-axis Accelerometer did u use?

thanks

[potobill]

do you know any tutorial where I can learn how to work with gyros and accelerometers????

or any book or something like that????

do you have any recomendation???

thank you

[Alexrcpilot]

Hey there, I'm working on three ADIS16100 Z-axis gyros + one ADXL330 XYZ accelerometer. How do you eliminate accumulated error and thermal drift?

[qwwqqe]

Thats good if you want your heli to go scout around, mounted with a camera, and flys by itself.. much like the drones that the military is using..

[malisiod]

I like the idea of a autopilot in an rc model. Especially if it can take control by itself and prevent a possible crash.

[nibbler125]

its an esky you should have no problum flying it

[adiyugi]

Hello.. I think many guys here are willing to buy your gadget, How about selling some?

[mistrymp]

This is the exact same thing I wanted to do, and for the the same reason. I want to say this is a really good project and a really good job. I wanted to ask if the controller you programmed on your microcontroller has allowance for other pilot input (FWD flight etc.?). I am really interested in this project if possible I would like to talk to you more about it. Thank you.

[austrianspiker]

hey do you have an email or some thing i would like to learn how to make one like it !?! Thank you

[gmodesike]

what software are you using to analyze the input/output/input/output etc.

[gmodesike]

hey..how much did the board and components on the board cost?

[gartax]

Hello, I am making a similar project, do you have your project documented anywhere?

[boomerxx21]

nice ghetto tripod. and nice board.

[coaxialgyro]

After all that , you may just use the board for addapting yourself a inhouse butler at your service. (sapian robots never stand up straight at taking courners !! )

[subzzzzzzzero]

now that is differant. hey crazy you could do with that gadgit.

i wouldnt mind one myself. lol.

well that is the most indepth gadgit ive seen.

bloody cool.

[crazy9catears]

what a great idea as a fail safe mode!! your heli is out of control,so you could just flick a switch in to auto-pilot..great stuff keep the good work up!

[fishravioli]

nice! good idea.  but you do know that there is something called Robbe command, its a 3 way gyro, but its the size of like two gy401 gyros.

[dougsrccom]

Its a great idea, I would love to see it work in flight, but honestly none of us are born pilots, it takes tons of practice and baby steps.Get a flight simulator and practice every chance you get, eventually your brain becomes the autopilot.

[sharonox]

Thanks for your advise. Actually I tried the simulator, but I did not find it to be fun for me. I am more enjoying by creating of stuffs, rather then playing. The primary goal was a process of developing and learning of new stuff but not a heli hovering, independently manually or automatically. I am doing some testing of my system now and after muliple crashes I feel I am close to be a pilot already :)

[bassmaste]

well Im getting the Blade 400

[sulan555]

seems really cool. but i want to see it work in real flight first :P. have you done all that by your self? frankenstein or something?

[sharonox]

Thanks. I also want to see it in real flight, but I need to perform additional testing before. Unfortunately I am not a pilot at all and it will be hard to control the flight manually if something goes wrong. Yes, everything done home by myself.
