drone's Introduction

Project Overview

Hardware

Software

  • Flight controller written in C
  • librobotcontrol for hardware access
  • Commanding interface written in JS using node (not yet implemented)

Compilation

  • Docker image / support script that handles all cross-compilation needs
    • Started with dockcross linux-armv7 toolchain as base
    • glib of dockcross image was newer than my board supported, so I extended the linux-armv7 image and installed an older cross-compiler
    • The resources/ directory of this repo provides an easy way to get access to the cross-compiler image

Work to go

Hardware

  • Securly mount board on drone frame, current mounting solution may be causing elevated noise in sensors
  • Acquire a dedicated battery to power board, or solder a new connection from the main battery
  • Configure board to run flight controller on boot

Software

  • Refine control algorithm.
    • Currently using single PID controller, may need to move to cascaded configuration.
    • PID input is using direct gyro/accel output. These likely need to be fused for better attitude estimation. Sensor fusion is implemented for altitude estimation, but may need refinement.
  • Add support for setting configuration values via commanding interface (e.g. PID)
  • Node.js commanding interface
