  1. Open-Source UAV

  2. Introduction • UAV is an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle • Our goal is to setup two different plane configurations with Paparazzi autopilot and fly them autonomously • Do this in conjunction with two separate Aerospace Engineer teams • Create a handbook detailing simple recreation of this project BETTER PIC THAN THIS

  3. The Planes • Multiplex Funjet • Elevons only for pitch/roll control • Other difference • Multiplex Minimag • Traditional rudder and elevators for pitch/roll control • Other difference

  4. Paparazzi UAS IMPROVE THIS PICTURE

  5. Cable Work • Creating proprietary cables • Bootloader cable: USB to 4-pin on Tiny • USB Programming cable: USB to 7-pin on Tiny • GPS Programming cable: I don’t even know • Power cables: As necessary

  6. Sensor Modification • Autopilot supplies 3.3V instead of 5V expected by IR sensors • With a 3.3V source, the IR sensor gains are offset by ~1.5 • This presents saturation problems while in high IR contrast locations • Replace resistors for unity gain

  7. GPS Setup and Functionality • U-blox software used for initial GPS setup • UAV software uses GPS for speed, location, elevation • Real ground level needed for altitude conversion from elevation • <screenshot>

  8. Ground Control Station/Modem • GCS uses independent modem to interface with aircraft • GCS controls aircarft through notebook PC • Can be overridden by manual R/C control

  9. Test Flights • Pictures and details of the more important test flights we held and their results

  10. Summary • We got them both to fly autonomously? • Yes into a field… ROFL OMG LOL • Blah blah I have no idea what to say here

  11. Our Team • Kevin Oberg • Dustin Douglas • Shuohan Wan

  12. Acknowledgements • Special thanks to: • Lockheed Martin Corp. engineers Reid Plumbo and Todd Colton • AEM Professor Hammer • AEM project teams A & B
