WHAT I NEED FOR ARDUCOPTER UAV The most important part of your arducopter is the flight controller. There are currently two main boards to choose from, APM2.6 or Pixhawk. The flight controller keeps your multi-rotor stable while you are flying in manual mode, and can take over to fly to 3D waypoints when you fly in autonomous mode.ARDUCOPTER GUIDE

Step1: Arducopter 3DR Power Distribution Board Assembly. The first step it to solder/ assemble the Power Distribution Board (PDB) sot hat you can power all four of your ESC from a single battery. To begin, take out the PDB board and run the two sets of narrow gauge wire through the central hole. The stripped ends of the wires should allemerge
ARDUCOPTER QUICKSTART GUIDES AND TIPS That's usually accomplished by mixing a two position switch and a three position switch on your transmitter. Set your switch (es) to (ideally) produce PWM pulse widths of 1165, 1425, and 1815 microseconds or 1165, 1295, 1425, 1555, 1685, and 1815 milliseconds. (You can also do this with an analog dial, if you have one, but it'shard to reliably
ARDUCOPTER QUICKSTART GUIDES AND TIPS The orignal MinimOSD's power setup provides two stages to avoid noises coming from servos attached to your ArduPilot boards. Those noises could introduce some glitches on video signal. The independent analog powering from a dedicated battery will heat the board considerably, but the video is the most clean as possible from MAX7456. CONFIGURING ARDUPILOT MEGA FOR ARDUCOPTER Warning: Before you configure your arducopter please make sure that you remove the PWM cable from your ArduPilot mega board.This is for your own safety, if the motors start spinning by accident they can cause serious damage When you connect the motors (for some testing functions/calibration please make sure you are alert and take the relevant precautions like removing the propellers. ARDUCOPTER QUICKSTART GUIDES AND TIPS For CTRL, choose the switch K2, or K1 (whichever you are comfortable with) Under Mix, choose K2 -> Ch6 (if you chose K1 above choose K1 ->Ch6. Leave RATE+ and RATE- at 0%. Change POSI to -100.0%.

IRIS ADVANCED MANUAL On your transmitter, move both sticks and all mode switches to their extreme positions so the red bars register the limits of each input. We recommend moving the sticks in the largest possible circle. ARDUCOPTER QUICKSTART GUIDES AND TIPS Note: the instructions below are for regular RC receivers with PWM output (one cable per channel).If you're using a "PPM" receiver (one cable carries all channels), follow the instructions here. Before you can configure your Arducopter, you will need to first connect everything together. ARDUCOPTER QUICKSTART GUIDES AND TIPS The Mission Planner makes it easy to setup up your joystick/gamepad control. We recommend that you continue to have your RC gear connected, since it’s possible to lose the Xbee connection sometimes in flight and you’ll need to be able to fall back to regular RC control or switch to “hardware manual” in the case of an autopilotfailure.

IRIS+ requires an active GPS signal before takeoff. If IRIS+ loses GPS signal in flight, it will trigger a GPS failsafe, indicated by a blinking blue and yellow LED with a high-high-high-low tone, and automatically switch to manual control (standard - altitude hold mode). ).

CONFIGURING ARDUPILOT MEGA FOR ARDUCOPTER The sonar sensors are quite sensitive to noise, adding something like a ferrite choke to your cable could help. The most important is to mount your sonar away from other electronics like ESC, or wirelesstelemetry modules.

ARDUCOPTER - MORE THAN YOUR AVERAGE QUADCOPTER ARDUCOPTER is an easy to use multirotor / helicopter UAV. Arducopter runs on the ArduPilot/Pixhawk autopilot. With GPS, this APM/pixhawk is a complete UAV solution that sets it apart from traditional multirotors which often only support remote control. The Arducopter system features fully autonomous way-point based flight, with mission planning and real time telemetry via the powerful groundcontrol station.
MAIN FEATURES
* HIGH QUALITY AUTOLEVEL AND AUTO ALTITUDE CONTROL – fly level and straight. Or fly the awesome "simple flight" mode, which makes ArduCopter one of the easiest multicopter to fly. Don't worry about keeping an eye on your multicopter's orientation--let the computer figure it out! You just push the stick the way you want to go, and the autopilot figures out what that means for whatever orientation the copter is in, using its onboard magnetometer. "Front", "back"...whocares? Just fly!
* NO PROGRAMMING REQUIRED. Just use an easy-to-use desktop utility to load the software with one click and set up ArduCopter with quick visual displays, a point-and-click mission planner and a full ground station option (see below). * UNLIMITED GPS WAYPOINTS. Just point and click waypoints in the Mission Planner, and ArduCopter will fly itself to them. No distance limits! You can script entire missions, including camera control! * "LOITER" ANYWHERE. Just flip the toggle switch and your copter will hold its position using its GPS and altitude sensors. * RETURN TO LAUNCH. Set home to any location and flip a switch to have ArduCopter fly back automatically. * Do all mission planning via a TWO-WAY WIRELESS CONNECTION OPTION. Waypoints, mode changing, even changing the gains of every control parameter can be done from your laptop, even while the copter is inthe air!
* AUTOMATIC TAKEOFF AND LANDING. Just flick a switch and watch ArduCopter execute its mission completely autonomously, returning home to land by itself in front of you when it's done. * FULLY SCRIPTABLE CAMERA CONTROLS, including the ability to drive a pan-tilt camera gimbal to keep the camera pointed at an object on theground.
* CROSS-PLATFORM. Supports Windows, Mac and Linux. Use the graphical Mission Planner setup utility in Windows (works under Parallels on a Mac) or use a command-line interface on any other operating system. Once ArduCopter is set up, you can use it with a choice of three ground stations, including QGroundcontrol, which runs natively on Windows, Mac and Linux * COMPATIBILITY WITH INDUSTRY-LEADING ROBOTICS STANDARDS, such as Willow Garages's Robot Operating System and the MAVLink communications protocol. This ensures that ArduCopter will continue to be on the cutting edge of aerial robotics, from multi-UAV swarming to AI control and Android compatibility. WHAT ABOUT ARDUPILOT MEGA PLANES? The same hardware that can fly your Multirotor can also be used to fly fixed wing aircraft. More information about the ArduPilot Mega autopilot can be found at ardupilot.co.uk WHAT CAN ARDUCOPTER CONTROL? ARDUCOPTER code is capable of controlling all of the major rotor wing airframes, including Traditional Helicopters, Tricopter(3/Y6), Quadrotor (X/+), Hexa(X/+), and Octa(X/+/V). All you need to do is change the firmware and some parameters on your ArduPilot Mega board. * IRIS Quadcopter UAV >* Iris Manual >
