It is probably the most incredible project you will see today. This is a totally in house built Hovercraft with the air cushion built with garbage bags. At the base of everything there is an Arduino Nano that controls the different motors with various ESCs with different current ranges. There is a 20×4 character i2c…
This project was inspired by the vision of a real boat equipped with various sensors capable of measuring the depth of the seabed; we therefore thought of building an autonomous small-scale boat to perform the same tasks. This could be equipped with the necessary sensors and programmed to guide you along a desired path and…
If you’re dealing with brushless motors, you can be interested in this brushless speed controller by Electronoobs. Version 1.0 of his open-source ESC design has been just released. This is a sensorless brushless motor speed controller since it uses no sensor to detect the rotor position. Electronic speed controllers are used to control brushless motors;…
Let’s complete the construction of our aircraft and test it. Now that you have physically created the quadcopter – according to the indications supplied in the first installment of this article (published here) – you may move on to the operational stages, and see as a first thing the commands available for our…
A high performance multirotor copter that may be created by starting from a premade base and an Arduino Mega based board, that may receive the commands from a model aircraft’s remote control, and that supports telemetry via smartphones. Nowadays most people call “drone” something that is, actually, a multicopter whose most common form…
