  • More flights scheduled for tomorrow

    Posted on February 27th, 2009 Fernando J. Pereda No comments

    I’ve found a nice place for flying the cessna. Héctor and I are going to train our fingers a bit more and get them used to the cessna tomorrow. Flying RC models helps you finding future problems and singularities you’ll face while building and designing the control for an aeroplane.

    We have some code that uses a Wiimote as a naïve IMU. If we can get the Wiimote up in the air, it will also be the first test for the Ground Station! Here is a small video showing a simple Attitude Estimator using the accelerometers from the Wiimote:

    We’ll keep you posted with the results of the flights tomorrow. Pictures and videos will surely follow.
