Comments
UAV-1 is the current aerial platform for our software experiments. It receives commands over a standard FM Futaba receiver that is decoded by the custom control board. These are then relayed to the onboard Linux iPAQ that processes them into navigation or attitude commands. All the software and plans are available under the GPL.
