Quadrotor Calculations

Sorry for the boring post, but I'm sick of having to do these out on paper over and over again and losing it. So a quick cheat sheet solves all my problems, here is a quick non flying video (first loaded test, with power issues)

 

Battery = 11.1 V (LiPo) 6000mAh Discharge 25C Burst 50C

Discharge rates in Amps

Aeroquad Shield Construction (v2.0.7 Shield)

This will be a simple guide for the construction of the Aeroquad v2.0.7 Shield, which will act as the interface between the sensors (Gyroscope ITG-3200, Accelerometer BMA180, Barometric pressure sensor BMP085, Triple axis Magnetometer HMC5883L and a Logic Level converter) and the Arduino Mega Micro controller.

The v2.0.7 comes with standard header and stacker pins for direct a direct shacking connection between itself and the Shield. You will need a small (18Watt) soldering iron
and some solder to make the connections.
