Question for the hardware gurus: ISP vs. SPI

I'm interested in interfacing an STM32-based flight controller with external sensors based on the SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) protocol. I have a couple of FCs (Flip32 F3, shown in attached photo; EMAX Skyline 32) that have a section of pins marked 5V/GND/RST/SCK/MISO/MOSI, which I presume are ...

Re: Introducing myself / a parser-generator I've written for

Sorry for the delay, guys! I thought I was set up to get auto-generated emails whenever anyone posted to this thread, but I wasn't. Anyway, yes: the problem was that MSPPG worked with Python2 but not Python3. I have changed that, tested the code, and updated the repository. So it will now work with ...

Realtime 3D display of IMU telemetry from an AcroNaze

This program will generate C++ code for parsing MSP bytes on an Arduino. I will post an Arduino example / instructions within the next few days.

Introducing myself / a parser-generator I've written for MSP

Hi everyone, My name's Simon, and I teach computer science / robotics at a small liberal arts college. One of the many cool things about this job is being able to try out new technology and develop new software for it. After building and flying quadrotors with all the popular open-source flight cont...
