MultiWii

I have HK nanowii board with an mpu6050 imu sensor. I noticed that the gyro yaw value is constant "1" in GUI (or 8 for raw 16 bit value) when the board is horizontal and not moving at all . This causes the calculated heading to increase at a rate of 1 degree per second. Because the board t...

Hi, As from now you can follow the MultiWii Portal website on Facebook & Twitter. http://i59.tinypic.com/35cndhk.png All new multirotors, drones, airplaines or helis that you and others add to our RC aircraft repository are automatically posted to our Facebook or Twitter page.

one by making website/wiki much better and user friendly and adding other value to the website. So that you have a social looking/feeling website and not just some flat EOL looking project page. My example on added value was a multirotor repository see: m poeple/users in this community can help bui...

Half year ago I allready stated that MultiWii should invest more in building a bigger community. http://www.multiwii.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=4558&hilit=repository This can only be done by making website/wiki much better and user friendly and adding other value to the website. So that y...

however, if the failsafe triggers gps return to home then you might damage the batteries more than if it just landed immediately. Then you have not set your failsafe corretly. My point of view is that you set your failsave according to your mission objectives. When your mission is to fly in your ba...

When you mount your motors straight on to a frame the yaw is caused by the drag of the props (rotation speed). Thats a small force that almost never provide a fast and good yaw authority. You have to make sure that the distance between the motors (pair) are exactly the same. E.g.: if distance betwee...

Hi, Currently I'm working on a 3Dprinted quad vtail. I have read a lot on this forum about vtail frame configuration but it is still not 100% clear to me. As I see a vtail can be made in 4 different ways. see image: http://i60.tinypic.com/11jq7uv.jpg Is my image correct? Do the configs correspond to...

*** UPDATE ***
Joystick feature now available for multiwiiconf v2.3 (mwii firmware v2.3).

No changes to joystick gui or joystick modes. Just an compatibility upgrade from v2.2 to v2.3

download and information available at http://www.multiwii.be/multiwiijoystick
when you are there don't forget to share your drone!

- The plan is to make a modified version of the MWC v2.3

- PID settings on the FC board are the same when flying with normal RC or with the gamepad.

1 & 2) by default NOT.
- you would need to change the Multiwii GUI source code so it can use UDP/TCP protocol.
- or you should find some kind of TCP/IP virtual com port driver that you can install on your laptop/pc.

if you want to fly (control) with joystick/gamepad on a windows pc/laptop then you can use this tool http://www.multiwii.be/multiwiijoystick

if you want to fly (control) with an android smartphone then check this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/deta ... iwii&hl=nl

Hi, I have added a joystick & gamepad feature in the MultiWiiConf software. Currently It's only available for PC/Laptop with Windows. And its MultWii version 2.2. http://i59.tinypic.com/jtnuxd.jpg The sofware is available for download. I also created a complete installation and user guide (webpa...

Hi, I have created a website (multiwii portal) where I'm trying to introduce some ideas. The site is made with drupal 7. The site is not a final product it is just a concept to some ideas. The goal was to make compatibility tables and connection diagrams for all kinds of subjects and make everything...

So you uploaded the DIY Arducopter Firmware to your FC board and then you try to connect to it with the Multiwii configuration tool?? If you upload DIY Arducopter firmware to your FC then use the DIY Mission planner application. If you upload Multiwii firmware to your FC then use the Multiwii conf a...

When you arm the MWii it will send the min throttle value (as set in your config file) to your motors. So on arming the motors should spin. You can lower this value to 1000 or even 900 then your motor should not spin on arming. But I think in your case you should just calibrate your ESC. When the FC...

I'm looking for I while now, but I really can't find it.

Is there a windows application to fly a MWii via a joystick or gamepad?

Like many others I don't use the gps option so I need to connect it directly to the FC board.

what pins can we use for the HC-SR04 on nanoboards with atmega32u4?

hmm nice. First time I see that website. m looks to be stand alone platform. They will have to create their own community to make it a succesfull website. Users will not come to that website or join that community only to view Multirotors. Off course some will, but the magority not. Most multirotor ...

Hi, I have a HK nanowii board for a while, but I never really dug into the MW forum/comminity because I also have an arducopter board and I'm spending more time on there website. But currently I'm working on a small indoor quad with that nanowii board and it's for several day's now that I'm reading ...

Hi, My feedback to designers who join this contest. I'm not a professional designer but would still like to share my idea The logo should be very recognizable at all sizes. Take the android logo (or arduino logo or ...) as a good example. This kind of logo can be used everywere at all sizes (as a la...
