autopilot: Do it yourself UAV (original) (raw)

The latest software release was in 2.5 in March 2003. There have been numerous changes since then, to the hardware, the onboard software and the simulator.

You can still downloadthe 2.5 releaseand theearlier releases, but it is better to work with the CVS head.

You can browse the CVS trees online. The ones of most interest are:

• sim: An accurate, aerodynamic helicopter simulator for Linux.
• sim/src/imu-filter: The actual flight controller that runs on the iPAQ.
• onboard/rev2: The current code that runs on the custom realtime control board.
• downlink: Tools for manipulating the telemetry data.
• htdocs: This website.

If you want to check out the code, you can use CVS and pserver. Hit return when prompted for the password:

cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.autopilot.sf.net:/cvsroot/autopilot login cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.autopilot.sf.net:/cvsroot/autopilot checkout sim
