Hello,
I'm new to this game(i do fly helis). You guys seem to know what your talking about and thats why i came here. i'm thinking of building a tricopter (just look cool) but im going to order enough parts to switch to a quad.
First, i'll start with what i have already ordered. I order a couple different boards so i can mess around with them.
I already ordered:
Arduino Uno - R3
Arduino Pro Mini 328 - 5V/16MHz
PARIS - MultiWiiCopter aerial photography board - v4.0 LLC semi-naked (http://www.multiwiicopter.com/products/sku-10)
FTDI Basic Breakout - 5V
HK Multi-Rotor Control Board V3.0
USBasp AVR Programming Device for ATMEL
OrangeRx R610 Spektrum DSM2 6Ch 2.4Ghz Receiver
HK 8X4R Propellers (Standard and Counter Rotating)
Second are my questions.
1.) was it worth getting the 3.0 over the 2.1 hk controller? (thought i would just future proof it for $4 more)
2.) which controller would be better arduino or the hk? (i know there are far better out there but this is what im working with)
3.) i'm not using this for any lifting or fpvm. just flying around. whats a good esc/motor combo? 25A or 30A? high or low kv motor?
i was looking at these options
Hobbyking SS Series 25-30A ESC
D2830-11 1000kv Brushless Motor or D2822/14 Brushless Outrunner 1450kv
4.) did i buy the right PARIS Board?
5.) do you guys have any problems with the clone nintendo motion plus and nunchuck?
6.) what software do you use?
7.) where do i get the software from?
Sorry for all the questions. there will be more to come. thanks
