Yes. Thanks, that was useful :) Hamish On 23/02/2020 17:05, Ralph Corderoy wrote: > Hi Hamish, > >> There are also pre-built, integrated boards with an Arduino and >> sensors onboard, which is more what I'm looking for. > Like these? > > >

Re: [Dorset] MultiWii controllers

MultiWii is the software, and it does run on an Arduino, but there are also specific sensors (such as accelerometers) you need if you're doing that part the DIY way. There are also pre-built, integrated boards with an Arduino and sensors onboard, which is more what I'm looking for. Hamish On

[Dorset] MultiWii controllers

I don't know if anyone here is into hobbyist drones or anything like that, but I thought it might be a good place to ask. I'm looking at building a raspberry pi based drone using a MultiWii (http://www.multiwii.com) as the flight controller. I was wondering if anyone knows where I can buy one? I

[Dorset] Meaning of ‘DT File’ in Schematic/PCB/Simulation Context.

Hi, I recently watched ‘Hardware Design for Linux Engineers’, 52 minutes, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ziHhcBoRjQk. It was okay, more interesting towards the end where the programmer talked about the issues he'd had with his hardware design, like getting oscillations from his transparent
