Previous Quadcopter Too many sensors!
◦ 4 ICs on 3 boards below Giant mess!
Inspiration

Other problems◦ Alignment◦ Vibrations◦ Analog noise
Sparkfun improvements◦ One board for all sensors◦ Still needs 3 separate ICs
Inspiration

Invensense’s MPU6000
3 axis gyro 3 axis accelerometer Digital Motion
Processor◦ Just raw data for now
No alignment All digital MPU9000 coming soon
◦ Includes magnetometer

Preliminary data logged◦ Unfortunately.. Lost data
Real data needs a fully assembled frame◦ Motor vibrations◦ Current magnetic fields◦ Finish up this weekend
Sensor status

Nearly assembled◦ T-Teched mount plate◦ McMaster parts ordered
Controller board hw 90% operational◦ Found a mistake on Xbee tx/rx◦ Might make a version 2
Eliminate mag board◦ Board is in rough shape◦ White wires
Flying?

Kalman filter◦ Corrects long term errors◦ Estimates sensor biases◦ Uses accels and mag as reference sensors◦ Need to tune against real data w/ motors running
Controller◦ PID loops
GPS Dropping mechanism
Flying?
