Today I will talking about my experience with my multi-copter i/o shield and where I'm going with it. Over a year ago I built my first MIOS (Link). This post is one of the most popular on my blog.
I apologize for my lack of posts in the last year. My multicopter projects have taken a back seat to some other interests and to "real life" priorities. I anticipate putting more time into posting about what I am doing over the winter. As part of that, I have started uploading some of my Arduino libraries to my Github account. These are libraries that I have personally written for my quad copter project. I have a couple of disclaimers in relation to these libraries:
As I previewed in my last post, I am making an shield to fit the Arduino Due that will simplify connecting the RC reciever, motor ESC, and I/O for sensor communication. The PCB's for the shield came this week and below are pictures and some explanations.
