Quadcopter build log

Introduction This page will be a walktrough on the creation of my quadcopter. It will be a quick tour as most basiscs are explained in the 'multicopter basics' document as listed on the right. A list of the items I acquired for the project is in on the bottom of this document. Good luck building your own project if you decide to do so. 2. Should you decide to build your own frame, start with drawings as every engineer does. Cross (aluminium square tubes from the local DIY shop) For the Dutch, Hornbach is your next stop ;-) Lower level of the "Hamburger", with light switch, power plug, Spektrum satellite receiver and LiPo low battery warner. Mechatronics - Quadcopter Pilot Project.

Hardware Controller The Arduino platform is selected for this project, mainly due to its open software and hardware nature which has resulted in availability of extensive technical information.

As a result there are many tutorials and example project available for this platform. A list of arduino boards can be found here. Many of these boards including Arduino Uno and Arduino Mega are perfectly capable of flying a quad copter.

Electronic Speed Controller (ESC) November 2012. I recently attended a conference where one of the conferees had a makerbot and was offering to 3d-print items for people.

November 2012

I was pretty excited about this -- in addition to being my first real-life experience with a 3d-printer, I had just seen the ladybird prop guards that had been uploaded to thingiverse and really wanted a set. So, just as has been described, we downloaded the STL file and brought it into the CAD package. We flipped the blade guard over so the arm attachment part would be on the bottom, and duplicated it so that we would print 4 in one go. All of that would pretty straightforward. We then fiddled with some parameters regarding plastic thickness, print speed, etc. You can drive the makerbot directly from USB, or you can generate and download (via memory card) the "tool paths" which are in "G code" (not sure about the details here, we were going pretty quickly). I'm not sure why we had the pieces of tape. Here you can see the prop guards starting to take shape.

Elev-8 Quadcopter. Updated 2012.02.24 Started 2011.12.21 Ok so I have been dying to build a Quadcopter.

Elev-8 Quadcopter

I saw the one that Fritzl had and the one that Ken Gracey from Parallax has. Apparently Parallax now sells the ELEV-8 kit as of last Friday. I was taking a tour of Parallax and they mentioned that I could be the first owner of the new kit. Here is the kit laid out with all of the parts. The only things that you need to buy separate is a battery and a 6-Channel RC transmitter/receiver set up to run the Hoverfly sport board or a 7-Channel one if you want to add a video camera tilt option to the Quadcopeter It comes with the Hoverfly Sport board that is powered by a Parallax Propeller and includes gyroscope and accelerometer onboard to do the flying and hovering. So far I spent about an hour assembling the motors with my Father [mainly because I am all thumbs…LOL].

Quadcopter. There are numerous RC Receiver interfacing techniques published on the web.

Quadcopter

My quadcopter design is using only one processor for all its computation. For this reason, I spent extra time designing the interfaces to be as efficient as possible. Even though RC Receiver interfaces aren’t super complicated, they can cause real-time scheduling issues because of the number of interrupts and the time spent inside these interrupt routines. Typical RC Receivers output the channel values in a given sequence of pulse width modulated (PWM) signals. The transmitters and receivers I have tested are Spektrum made. In a microcontroller, the most accurate way to measure incoming pulses is to use an input capture with a timer.

Les quadrirotors, comment ça marche ?

Un quadrirotor est un appareil volant comportant 4 rotors pour sa sustentation. Les 4 rotors sont généralement placés aux extrémités d’une croix. On peut aussi placer les rotors aux extrémités d’une structure en forme de H, mais le principe de base consiste à placer les 4 rotors aux 4 coins d’un carré, sur un même plan horizontal. Le Contrôle Il existe plusieurs solutions pour contrer et contrôler le mouvement de lacet : — Les 4 hélices tournent dans le même sens.L’inclinaison d’au moins un rotor est controlée par un servo, et les autres rotors sont légèrement inclinés pour contrer le mouvement de lacet. Stationnaire — 2 hélices tournent dans un sens, et deux autres dans l’autre. De part sa nature, l’appareil est totalement instable : autant essayer de faire tenir une assiette ( sans la faire tourner ) au bout d’un manche à balai... Et pour faire varier l’inclinaison de l’appareil, il faut donc pouvoir modifier la poussée indépendemment et rapidement sur chaque rotor.
