The blog doesn't provide enough details, if someone can shed light on how the pointing action gets translated to the lower level robot movement commands, that would be great!
I clicked the link to learn what steganography mean...
How to be a legend like him?
I needed it!
Made my day!
It's sad to see drones being used in wars! But maybe the way to combat that is to power everyone with it, then nobody dare to step out to do anything sketchy with it like nuclear weapons.
Thank you mate! It's a iterative process over quite a few years as a side project. Things mostly come by one by one.
Thank you mate!
You should be able to use the controller calibrator to calibrate a regular video game controller and use it.
Only use the upper half of the left stick per the spring issue folks mentioned above.
You can also use your keyboard or the virtual joystick if you are on a touch screen!
There are a million ways this can turn into a fireball, dont' try it, at least don't put it at home.
Reminds of me of tools like https://huu.la, the main difference is newer generations focuses on utilizing LLM to map design to code, versus the older generations focus on using WYSWYG tooling to edit the page directly.
WSL is the main reason I switched from Mac/Linux to Windows two years ago. Excited to see this move!
Anyone know good tutorials for simulating drone/airplane propeller sound?
Absolutely. Nowadays sims get more and more realistic and you can definitely learn a lot from them and transfer a big chunk of the learning to real drones.
Definitely agree. FPVSIM allows for PID tuning as well. You can learn a lot on how they affect drone dynamics by playing with the PID values once you know the basics of PID algorithm.
Nice! Glad you liked it. Try a webkit based browser instead like Chrome/Safari/Edge, I'm not sure how much WebGL optimization firefox carries.
You can play FPVSIM web simulator on any devices with a Chrome/Safari/Edge browsers. Which means - Windows/OSX/Linux/Chromebook/Android/iOS etc.
+1 on the controllers resolution part. Just add to it, gamepads usually do things like dynamic frame rate for power saving reasons, these features are not the good if you do fly drones for competitions. Good to get a OpenTX/EdgeTX based controllers, which offers 1Khz frame rate in newer versions.
Checkout Jumper too, they are the biggest competitor of radiomaster, might offer better price with similar quality.
Sorry, this tutorial is meant to be played with the on-screen virtual joystick. Not many people have radios lying around after all.
DJI is not very good in terms of end to end latency which are necessary for racing. They are good with packed techs, but racing market is too small for them.
I would recommend one of the radios that run OpenTX or EdgeTX (fork of OpenTX firmware: https://www.open-tx.org. These radios support a wide variaty of RF modules and have good support for simulators. No need to get a too expensive one.
Good to start practicing now ;)
OP here. This is my first version of an interactive drone flying tutorial. Built with Three.js and other open source projects (Thanks to all who made those possible!). Comparable drone simulators on the market requires download of very large packages (usuall >= 30GB), whereas this guide and simulator doesn't require download of anything, hopefully giving folks interested to learn drone flying a very easy way to get started. Feel free to comment down below for thoughts!
This is not going to replace the p2p functionality of webrtc right?
Try the free FPVSIM drone simulator[1], you can train there!
Anyone else also go tricked by their signup funnel? I'm pretty sure that short note is worth putting in an obvious place in the signup funnel instead of hiding in a "knowledge base".
Is Google actually suing or plan to sue OpenAI or Microsoft for patent infringement?
What does the "takeover" mean? Will people's deposit still stay intact?
