Meh.... I want to see someone toss an CC quad in the air, pick up the radio from the ground, scratch their head at least twice, flip a switch on the radio, and then have the quad park itself in the air. Only then I will be impressed. :cool: :) Seriously, I would love to get one of these boards...

No it's not. Thank you Dave. I've been lurking on the project long enough and spying on the chat every once in a while. I see what you guys do and how you interact and plan. It is indeed a special project with many great minds. I hope to make some contribution at the point where I can actually...

They shouldn't just die. I'd like to see why. If you want to send it to me, my wife will bake you a broken parts pie. (I don't know how that rhyming thing happened.):confused: Shoot me a PM if you want.

So what's wrong with them?

I'm going to put my CC board in a bi-copter and it looks like I'll need a custom mixer setup. There is currently no information in the wiki to setup custom mixing. What are the number ranges? +- 100? +- 64? +-50?

Ken, Try the dev code on the quadrino. It has a better algorithm. Also, if you use the compass, there is a code change that must be made.

One of these days I'm going to collect all of those stock dipole antennas I own and burn them. Does that answer the question? :)

I'm building a new bird just for the CC board that's on order. I really wish they would have put on a baro sensor and a magnetic compass though. Oh well, I guess I'll have to wait for the OpenPilot board for that.

$190. Expensive, but I don't mind spending for tools. Especially when they save time and avoid damage.

I was just trying to remove a through hole pin header on the quadrino board. I wanted to remove it in one piece and was having a hard time. Then I thought of this tool and well it's only money right? Order placed. I have an 8x3 header on my RX that I want to pull and that desolderer is the...

I almost forgot about that CP antenna that Hugeone came up with. I was waiting for the build specs but I missed that thread. Thanks. That's what I will build.

That really depends on if the person wants to learn to build a quad or just wants to learn to fly without breaking the bank. This looks appealing to me for a good DIY first timer's kit or even for someone who wants a mini quad...

It's raining in VA so he's probably hard at work making new antennas. It looks like they are in stock now. He also makes them for ReadyMadeRC btw. I ground tested my Skew-planar antennas to 1/2 mile in terrible conditions. Well outside of radio range for my Futaba 2.4Ghz. In your case, you...

Very interesting Shawn. BTW, On your downlink, I can see a filter from OMM/Rusty and an inverted V antenna. The particular V antenna you have is poorly designed. Talk to the guy who brought those into the FPV world - IBCrazy on RCgroups. He's going to say that the antenna lead should come out...

Below is the link to get the new open source CopterControl board from the OpenPilot project. http://forums.openpilot.org/topic/4702-inital-op-stores/page__pid__13468 Be warned though. This is for early adopters and people who like to get their hands dirty so don't get your panties in a wad if...

What speed controllers are you using? The multiwii does prefer the faster controllers. Turnigy Plush and the rebrands seem to work well. Try posting your setup in the RCG thread. Someone will know the answer.

That's correct Pip. The idea is to use every other wire for the motor and the other three are soldered together for star or wye. BTW, Welcome to the site.

The DLRK winding tutorial is the second to last link I posted in the first post. On that same thread is a delta and star wind method with great description and pictures.

Ignore this Buzzed. It's open source and open hardware and they won't go anywhere with the project. :rolleyes: //Sarcastic mode off I predict greatness.

Welcome Edourd and Dankers. Sunday ehhh? Awesome. I've been waiting since that first post on RCG a year ago or so.
