Sneak preview of new WinGUI (Screenshots)

[EOSBandi]

Hi,
I found one issue:

When I am connected to the FC and try to open the GUI settings page i got a message that this is not possible - OK.
But when I am not connected, and open that page and then hit connect, I can change the settings there.

Is this OKAY?


Nils

nope, its a bug thanks for cathing it. It wont make any harm, just not logical. I'll fix it asap.

Please release a beta of this already I absolutely hate java.

+1

+2

+3

Great work you´re doing, amazing! Congratulations.

Another crazy idé...
Implement joystick and use the BTSERIAL part to control the copter via serial..(XBee or something)
Together with the videocapture and OSD overlay..

Code: Select all

 #ifdef BTSERIAL
    case 'K': //receive RC data from Bluetooth Serial adapter as a remote
       rcData[THROTTLE] = (SerialRead(0) * 4) + 1000;
       rcData[ROLL]     = (SerialRead(0) * 4) + 1000;
       rcData[PITCH]    = (SerialRead(0) * 4) + 1000;
       rcData[YAW]      = (SerialRead(0) * 4) + 1000;
       rcData[AUX1]     = (SerialRead(0) * 4) + 1000;
       break;
    #endif

Maybe you could add the airplane and heli graphics from my Branch?
The Airplane is ready to go public soon.

Nice work

I'ts on the list...

Hi, is there a way to be on the list of Beta testers?
I'd love to help test it out.

code is already posted and it works.

Hi András, this is perfect! great job.

One question: does it supose to work with last dev? what´s the r569 DEV? not the last one I think... because Gui says "no valid answer from FC" .

Cheers,
Henrique

To make it work with 0203 dev I had to remove I2CErrors reading
i2cErrors = 0; // BitConverter.ToInt16(packet, o); o += i16;
and change iPacketSizeM20 = 153;
Not sure why i2c error stuff was added in the middle of 'M' payload, it was usually in debug1.

I dont have I2C errors (debug2) debug1 is giving the baro error (normal Ithink)!

it was a decision made by alex, i just followed the multiwii core development. But it could be reasonable to add an option to fall back to pervious version of the serial protocol... I hope I will be able to push 1.01 to the repository tonight...

hey,
i did test your new gui with yesterdays svn release and i am very happy to say,so far i have tested it everything is working as it should! Great Job!

edit:
There is one thing i thought of. I have to disconnect quad for doing mag calibration dance and forgot to press the pause button. Is there a way pause could be applied as loosing connection? (The program crashed instead)

Pretty cool! When do you release a beta?

Update 1.02 is released, see topic: viewtopic.php?f=8&t=1229

[caotri]

so nice, looking for it to be final version.
thanks.

[captaingeek]

any chance of adding another tab that will allow upload of updated firmware (over BT too)?

[Sven]

Will a version for dev20120225 be released soon?
The java versions are always completely screwed on all my computers (window turns gray after half a minute or so),
so I have to rely on a good GUI release to make use of the new firmwares.

1.04 supports 0225dev and all upcoming devs till 2.0 since alex agreed that serial protocol is freezed till 2.0 release...
Make sure that you create a new gui_setting.xml and select 2.0dev in the setting wizard.

Oops, found the new winGUI, it was hiding at a different file depository.

Now comes the fun bit of dealing with sensor orientation again.

Well,
unless it includes a complete arduino compiller and config manager, there is no reason to duplicate the multiwii fw upload in the gui. You are using arduino ide anyway to compile he code, so you can also upload the code with it. For supporting bootloading over BT you need a BT module witch handles DTR/RST just like the ftdi. But if you have such a module then you can use it with arduino ide also.
