OV3RQUAD STM32F3 Discovery

This is my custom OV3RQUAD quadrotor frame made by G10 1.5mm plate and cut by my homemade CNC router. Source frame and forum here. Development has moved over to http://github.com/Taulabs! This is a port of the famous OpenPilot software to the STM32F3 Discovery board. Its name is (surprise) "discoveryf3". Its features are:

STM32F303 72MHz 32bit ARM cortex-m4 power with hardware fpu

L3GD20 gyro

LSM303 accelerometer (magnetometer unused yet)

FreeRTOS based OpenPilot flight control software

compatible to stock OpenPilot GCS (enumerates as coptercontrol)

2 general purpose UARTs each with selectable 3V or 5V power supply (3 additional unused)

1 I2C for adding external sensors (unused)

1 SPI for adding external sensors (unused)

4.5mm drills

its fucking big

easy to build yourself

Functional differences between CC3D and discoveryf3 are:

discoveryf3 does not support I2C on FlexiPort (but has dedicated I2C)

discoveryf3 does not (yet) support USB VCP

discoveryf3 does not (yet) support telemetry on uart because of the missing USB vsense

Team-Blacksheep Caipirinha with CC3D + GPS

Finally, the new wing from TBS. Bittersweet, precise and easy to build, just like the cocktail it has been named after. Using airfoils from Ritewing and manufactured by Windrider in cooperation with TBS!

Designed to change the fixed wing FPV experience - again. Its small size and light weight makes it very forgiving for beginners. Its versatility will please professionals, with 10km (and return) flying range, a whopping 35mins flight time and a speed range in the low 20's to high 60 km/h. The lower speed compared to its big brother ZII is barely noticeable as you fly closer to the ground, between trees or buildings and into cracks or crevases. This is a take-anywhere, fly-anytime type of plane which doesn't cause a stir in local parks and is absolutely safe to fly.

Built from indestructible molded EPP, it is the smallest wing to date capable of carrying a full-feature HD camera such as the GoPro while keeping the all-up-weight in the 600g (21oz) range! With the slick, low drag design it flies smooth and efficient. The supplied accessories are of exceptional quality and give you the freedom to use the plane with any FPV equipment, power train and battery system, while reducing the build time to a minimum when using it with TBS- or TBS-compatible equipment. Features:

Small, lightweight, fly anywhere design

Virtually indestructible EPP material

Pre-cut camera, battery, R/C receiver and video transmitter slots

Pre-cut, sanded and covered ultra-lightweight elevons & pushrods

Bunny-ear & symmetrical winglets included

Laser-cut plywood GoPro protection & motor mount

2x spar holes, ribbon slots provides plenty of strength for those that need it

Negative foam pieces allows you to build the wing according to your rules, not ours

Specifications:

34in / 85cm wingspan!

22oz / 620g AUW (including GoPro2 and battery)

35min flying time*

10km range*

It is a color board camera for security surveillance. Utilizes Sony 960H Double Scan CCD, and Effio-V 4141GG DSP (advanced version of Effio-P), it can produce image of 800TVL high resolution. Besides the high ressolution, it has powerful OSD which includes impressive functions, such as ultra WDR (Wide Dynamic Range), 3D-DNR (Digital Noise Reduce) and Auto AGC or AGC+ slow shutter (sense up). The camera is with 2.8mm wide angle fish eye lens which enables large field of view. It is a wonderful camera for indoor surveillance which requires high resolution image effect. Moreover, it is also suitable for FPV (first person view).

REVO: What it will, and will not do

The Revo has been selling from RMRC and getFPV, but unfortunately, despite warnings to the contrary on at least one of the stores, it seems some people are not aware that OpenPilot is an Open Source project done by people as a hobby and in their spare time, and it isn't a completed project with its full capabilites in force.  With Open Source projects, things are always a work in progress, and they greatly depend on people getting involved to help. With OpenPilot, we spend a great deal of time making sure things are well polished and safe.  We're not going to rush feature releases just for marketing when we know that could result in crashes and flyaway events.

  Without a bit of due diligence on the part of some of the people buying Revos, they think that all the features are up and running and it's a completed project. This is not the case, we have always stated the opposite; that this is a work in progress from a project that cares about quality in all things.  We need people to help us out and to get involved.  That's how a community project works.  We also occasionaly run into people that didn't do their "due diligence" that start making demands, and that is simply unreasonable.  

  The advanced features work now, but they are difficult to use, and aren't readily available to the average user.  The calibration of the magnetometer is currently too difficult to teach without a one-on-one session and "in person". That's all about to change!  We have some big plans there, and in OP fashion, it’s a ground up rethink of how to do things right. Original thought is hard!  You need to think and tie all the bits together.  This R&D style takes time and you need to experiment.  Copying stuff from elsewhere is not so hard, but it's also not fun or creative.

  If you want to grab the source, compile it, and spent the time to learn how to use the advanced features, that's great... but we won’t put out a public release with them until they're safe. The plan is to start testing production quality versions soon, but we won’t rush things. Right now, at this moment, you can count on the Revo to be the best LOS and FPV controller you can buy (for very little money, I might add).  The hardware is amazing, very solid and works well.  AND, it has lots and lots of potential locked away inside that will become available as the software is written, tested and released.

  What OpenPilot needs is for people to “get it” and to realize this is a non-profit community-based project, and to dive in and help make it better.  Things go a lot faster when more people help!  We're already using some of your donations to get new features closer to release where that is appropriate, but additionally, we need more help. Patience!  It shouldn't be long, but if you want it to go faster, please pitch in. The recent addition of a fair number of new developers has the project pushing forward at a rapid pace.  Lots of progress is happening, and the future is looking exceedingly bright.
