The first tethered flight of our quadrotor. The system has the wii mote taped to the top to provide attitude information. That info is fed back to the G1 which output commands directly to the Defcon 17 badge. The badge sends PWM control throttle on the motors.

  • @jessejax take a chill pill hagfag

  • Yeah, trying to take off when its got cables making it lean on an angle while grounded, isnt a great way to get it off in the air. Fucking retards :\ i cant believe you even got that far without killing yourselves.

  • fail

  • wings are not tandem and power input is not clocked so obviously it'll be unstable at launch. Also you can benefit by building a small launch pad by just 4 embedded sticks to help it move up instead of sliding like a hovercraft.
