The project includes not only the airborne hardware and software, from voltage regulators and GPS receivers to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalman_filtering Kalman filtering] code, but also a powerful and ever-expanding array of ground hardware and software including modems, antennas, and a highly evolved user-friendly ground control software interface.

| Paparazzi now on OS X. Thanks to the tireless efforts of Eric and Bernard we can all run [http://paparazzi.enac.fr/wiki/InstallationMacOSX Paparazzi on OS X]. Stay tuned Windows fans. Paparazzi on Windows is coming soon.
| | '''[http://paparazziuav.org Paparazzi UAV]''' (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) is an open-source drone hardware and software project encompassing autopilot systems and ground station software for multicopters/multirotors, fixed-wing, helicopters and hybrid aircraft that was founded in 2003. [http://paparazziuav.org Paparazzi UAV] was designed with autonomous flight as the primary focus and manual flying as the secondary. From the beginning it was designed with portability in mind and the ability to control multiple aircraft within the same system. Paparazzi features a dynamic flight plan system that is defined by mission states and using way points as “variables”. This makes it easy to create very complex fully automated missions without the operators intervention. For more project information, [[General|see here]]. |

Another [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N0H9xWckeYQ video] shows a Paparazzi quadcopter using adaptive control to stay level after dropping 50% of its total weight.

| |[[Image:OrganizedCode.png|thumb|left|[[User/AirborneCodeReorg|Code Reorganization]]]]
| |
| After many years of development, so many new autopilot boards and aircraft types have been added that a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Source_code sourcecode] reorganization was needed. This undertaking is started and will simplify the continuous evolution of the project.
| |
| | |
| To benefit from these important changes, it only requires you to update your airframe configuration document once. After you have updated, you should not notice the significant reorganization that is going on behind the scenes. This change will benefit your aircrafts flying successfully for the years to come. The required changes are described on [[User/AirborneCodeReorg| Update Your Airframe Configuration]].
| |
| | |
| At this point several developments are blocked because of this. Therefor we kindly request you to upgrade your airframe configuration documents as soon as possible and thank you in advance for doing so.

To name only a few : development and maintenance of the entire ground segment, navigation and flight plan algorithms, code generation and build system, distribution packaging, server infrastructure...

There are two teams operating near Longyearbyen, one on the apron of Longyearbyen airport (LYR) and the other at the old northern lights research station in Adventdalen. We had permission to fly up to 1500m outside the airport opening times. The Paparazzi aircrafts work perfectly...for humans it is just a little cold. Last night we flew having -32°C (-25°F) on the ground. There is a [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1k_TLcQ2ic video] showing a 1500m vertical profile flight.

| This is to announce a Call for Papers for the 2009 ASME/IEEE International Conference on Mechatronic and Embedded Systems and Applications (MESA09), part of ASME IDETC09. The conference is to be held August 30 - September 2, 2009 at San Diego Convention Center. This Call for Papers is specific to the Session chaired by myself, Antoine Drouin , and Anton Kochevar. This topic of this session is " Open Source UAV Autopilots: Status and Progression", part of a symposium of MESA09 called "Small Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Technologies and Applications (SUAVTA)". This Technical Session is meant to be a session that will focus on Paparazzi, the topics can include specific features developed for Paparazzi or applications using Paparazzi along with other innovative aspects or uses of Paparazzi. We hope to make this one of the largest and best conferences dealing with Paparazzi. Please help us to promote Paparazzi and bring this amazing project to even more people. Full paper deadline is Feb. 27, 2009 using the online submission system.

They took off and landed on the helicopter deck of the Norwegian icebreaking coast guard vessel [http://www.jtashipphoto.dk/JTA-W303%20Svalbard.htm KV Svalbard] for one week and set a new Paparazzi low temperature record by flying at around -20°C and 15m/s wind in altitudes up to 1500m.
