Drone that you already have in your pocket

by exanko | July 4, 2013 | (8) Posted in Projects

I made tutorial for drone contest on Instructables. I want to show possibility of use Android phone as control board and heart for multicopters. Modern phone offers accelerometer, gyroscope, GPS module, powerfull CPU etc.. we can say everything that you need for autonomous drone. I do not want to duplicate the article on Instructables, so i attached a few images here. If you would like my tutorial I will be happy for your votes (top right corner). If I will be successful, I will continue with this project here on flitetest.

Won't the latency be too much?

I made some other projects with IOIO in future, and latency was not a problem.
