Revision as of 08:13, 11 June 2007
I am Szilard Fulop from Hungary, who is familiar with sw, linux, GNU and rc, but new on electronics.
I keep in the air some planes in the last one and half year, what was very interresting, but not enough :-) Now I want to expand my p-13 glider to be able to made photographs, videos and allow to made FPV flights assisted by autopilot controll and autonomus. This is a great 2,5m wingspan, 1.4kg weight electric glider, which is now under reconfiguration.
Completed:
- I complied and installed the paparazzi3 on Ubuntu/Dapper environment.
- Rebuilded my p-13 and achieved the first flying test with simulated weight.
- Captured the video system: CAM520 line, 1W 2.4GHz transmitter, diversity receiver with thwo 12dBI patch and a GD520 google. Now I am in building this together.
- Replaced the 420 with a 520 CCD, because the first delivered was failed.
- Rebuild 2nd time my p-13 after a crash during the first flight with FMA Copilot
- Tested the video system on fly! ;-) it was a dream!
- Tested the FS8CPI from FMA in an EPP plan. The sensors make great works, but the receiver is very weak in range!
- Buildup pan/tilt servos and test. Some EMI detected, but solved.
- Capture of assemled Tiny boards! :-)
- Retest of FS8CPI failed, replacement to a Futaba R168DF, which works well
- Replacement of video encoder AV100U to a Plextor Convertx TV402U
- Build up of my notebook and finishing the mobil base system
- Captured the final platform a Blizzard from Reichard! The wingspan is 3,5m...
On going:
- Introduction with Tiny board .... cables ... power ... molex .. sensor connections ....
- Figuring out, which radio modems fit to my plane?
I You want to see my pages related to rc follow this link: http://silas.fornax.hu/album/flying
Some captured answers
Q: what are this time the most problematic things over the EMI? just in sentences.
A: - everything
- the GPS is sensitive to the distance and orientation of the video and modem antennas
- and the IR sensors, gyros, and wires to these sensors are sensitve to the video/modem emissions
- and of course the R/C is affected also - mostly from the modem
- the video sends a continuous wave at a very high frequency, but the modem sends "blocks" of data, so even though it is operating at high frequency, it is "turning on/off" at a much lower frequency, frequencies similar to R/C or analog sensors
