MultiWii

I've been having some trouble lately trying to get my quad copter to hover in the air, we plan to fly it autonomously so it is important that it can fly up and hover over that same position without the small adjustments you would make by eye if flying manually. I am using a MultiWii Crius AIO Pro bo...

Ah sorry I must have mistaken that part about the range with accurate readings. I'm not too worried about having to stay under 8 feet, all our quadcopters (doing a swarm) will be lower than 8 feet. That video you posted, is that your own build? How did you connect the ultrasonic to the board? Did yo...

I've had some luck by using the ADC port on pins A0-A5 since my sonic sensor doesn't use I2C. I can read the voltage and I added in some code to display the ADC value on the AUX4 bar, but it's jumping around pretty inconsistently instead of incrementally changing as I lift the copter form the ground...

Trying to add in a ultrasonic to improve the altitude hold on my quadcopter. Currently using a CRIUS AIO Pro as seen here m Running MultiWii 2.3 on the board, and I'd like to use the MaxBotix MB1240 Ultrasonic sensor as seen here m My current problem is that pinout diagrams for using external sensor...

I'm trying to build an autonomous quadcopter swarm, and at the moment we're having trouble turning flight modes on and off autonomously. I'm are using multiWii 2.3, Our system consists of a Arduino mini communicating with the MultiWii control board through UART (ports S1~S3 on the control board). Th...

Well in that case we are tuning in ACRO mode already. Scrat when you say "Then fly in acro mode and use clicking buttons for trim acro mode." Where can I find more details about that? Am I just clicking them in the direction I need to compensate? Do I use the buttons on the left stick or r...

Wich mode are you using? You need to test it in acromode. Trim acromode on your transmitter trims, not via stickcommands. Once acro is stable, take the next step to levelmode. Greetz Noc Also I'm not quite sure what you mean by transmitter trims, I used the clicking buttons below and to the side of...

Greetz Noc As far as what mode I'm in, I assume you mean flight mode? We tried tuning in Horizon mode but didn't really not...

My team has run into a bit of a roadblock, trying to tune PID's and get stable flight for the last week or so. So while tuning the PID' s while the quad is suspended horizontally by two strings, the quad seems to start rocking back and forth when increasing throttle, and once it starts swinging it w...

I've just checked the website again and now I am able to see the file. Weird. Well thanks!!

Yes, all the stick config documents I have found so far using google are for version 2.0 to 2.2, I haven't seen any for 2.3, my current Multi version. I'm not sure if thee is any difference between them. I am familiar with Mode 1 vs. mode 2, both pages(modes) of the stick config document look like t...

The stick config files are hosted at this address (m) I have tried to download and view the files for MultiWii 2.3, which is the version I am using but Adobe Reader says the pdf file is either not a supported file type or the file is damaged. When trying to view the powerpoint version, the file will...

With the transceiver boards(broadcasting on 2.4GHz) we've been using, we get a range of around 30 feet. So for the time being this won't be a long range sort of project. We've had to apply some filtering methods to get accurate signal strength ->distance translation, but it has been fairly consisten...

I really like the idea of using signal strength to determine location. Is there a way for someone to follow your development on this topic? Thank you. Sure! I'm pretty certain that all our work will be open source and available to share, once we get some steady work going, I can share the Git hub r...

I am working on a senior design project at my university, our project is creating an autonomous sensor network, mounted on quad copters. Rather than depending on GPS satellites, we are determining the position of each node by the strength of the wireless signal between nodes, which translates into d...
