Bro!!! You're a life saver. I'm making a target tracking quadcopter for my honours research project and you helped big time with something that was giving me major headaches. Thank you so much and keep making quality content :)
... im Enjoying what your doing Dennis the first thing that i do when i open RUclips is to see your channel plz Dennis but out all the Sources thank you alot plz keep us updated
I'm trying to connect a Jetson nano to a mini pixhawk. The connection would also be similar to this ? Serial Port ? . Thanks for the video, very informative.
@Dennis_Baldwin sir did you figure out the problem where telemetry 1 and telemetry 2 are interfacing with each other and causing error in tower app while Dronekit is running on pi thank you.
Dennis, Can You Please answer my question about esc's? I am Building a TAROT TL250H Mini Quad Using Emax MT2204 2300KV MOTORS WITH 5x4x3 TRI PROPS And it calls for 12 amp ESC'S I am not using it for racing and never using 4s lipos ever just 3slipos. My question is I have new Flycolor 30amp 2-4s simonk esc's that I am going to use but they have very thick and heavy heatsinks in the esc's, I know that 30amp is overkill but there new I have a lot of them and I want to use them! Do You Think it will be ok to remove the Heatsinks from the esc's Because of the weight and how heavy the heatsinks are, the esc's will be placed on the arms so they will get max airflow from the motors and from flying DO YOU THINK THAT IT WILL BE OK TO REMOVE THE HEATSINKS ON THE ESC"S? PLEASE ANSWER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE?
Hi sir, one question. How do you know that the commands, say for example arming the safety switch is programmed to be "arm safetyon" or, off? This line is not at all mentioned in your code. Please advice, thanks!
Hi Dennis!! i get on mi Rpi "Waiting for the vehicle to inicialise" what i should do? I can connect it ,when i do changes with my transmisor (controller) i can see the changes on the rpi so the connection is good but i cant run .py it seems pls help me.
Really excited to see you add a Reach Kit. RTK with a laser plummet and camera on the same gimbal would be really cool. Fly to a known or unknown coordinate, take a picture of the laser illuminating the object to be located. Could be a wetland flag. Something RTK is already used for.
I will send you a Reach kit. Aibotix GmbH has an interesting UAV. With your current build you can do as many sensors with it as it will lift. It was smart to go big.
Wetlands delineation and location allowed Professional Land Surveyors start to find ways to make money with early commercial GPS. Drones, UAS are the next progression in instrumentation. With increased camera resolution in theory they should compete with early EDM total stations eventually. It is all just a matter of writing some statistical software beyond my abilities.
Very good info. I'd love to find a way to do some precise surveying with a more accurate GPS. I'll keep you posted and perhaps we can collaborate on a video series as it relates to RTK mapping.
Stitching software seems to be almost ahead of coordinate accuracy at the time of photo. I am not sure how much increased coordinate accuracy at time of photo affects the digital mapping stitched for free by several competing online providers. You would think it would improve the final product, but it seems lower altitudes at high off the shelf inexpensive camera resolutions are creating a better onsite product than traditional photogrametry.
Hi Dennis! I followed everything you did but when I run the code i get an error "mode 0 not available on mavlink definition". Do you know how to deal with this?
Hi Thiago, unfortunately I can't help at this time. Right now we are working on a project with the DJI SDK. When I'm done I can probably do a video that explains how to set it up. Sorry I can't help and good luck with your project.
Hi Dennis!! Could you tell me how i could connect my Rpi with my PC without internet, dont know how to connect thinking of inicialise a comand.py on a terrain without wifi. Thanks in advance
I haven't figured out the best way to do this yet, but this is what I'm currently doing: ruclips.net/video/ELa6w6Z6mws/видео.html It's just a timer based script initialization. I'd like to figure out how to start a script with my transmitter switch. Will share when I figure this out.
Thank you Dennis, but my problem is that i need to visualise the Rpi on my PC so i need a conection to make a remote desktop. Can you think about something? Thanks in advance, really like ur pyojects and also usefulls
Hello! Thank you so much for this video. I wrote to you recently about how to control the PWM outputs of the motors. I hope you will help in this. P.S. On the Internet I could not find

I'm not really sure what's going on. I tried to read through some posts in the DroneKit forums, but the site is down. There are a few posts with the same problem you're having. Maybe it will come back up in a bit. Will let you know if I can dig anything up.

Thanks for this series (and your other vids). This is exactly what I'm hoping to do once I get my hex built - similar setup.
Awesome. Thanks for the feedback and good luck with your build.
... im Enjoying what your doing Dennis
the first thing that i do when i open RUclips is to see your channel
plz Dennis but out all the Sources
thank you alot plz keep us updated
Thank you so much for the good words. I really appreciate it!
How do I build this hexcopter?
Please share a build guide or part list

Really look forward to these videos on rpi. Keep them coming. Thanks
Thanks so much. Appreciate you following along.

Just where is all this taking us, my head is spinning too fast,,,
You and me both....but I feel like some impressive things can be done when integrating all of this technology. Thanks for following along.
Beam me up scotty/ wrist teleporter?
