Hi Everyone,
I want to post here all the sensors that I will select for my quadcopter project.
I want suggestions for the following :
- 3D Gyros : ITG-3200
- Accelerometer (tripple axis) : ADXL345 or BMA180
- Compass (tripple axis) : HMC5843
- GPS : LS20031 or Skytraq or ???
- Altimeter
- Battery Monitor
- Barometric Pressure : BMP085
- Temperature (oups, it looks like the Gyro has it included ...) : LM335A
- Range finders (for autonomous flight, anti collision)
Anything missing ?
Mike.

Started with C in 1985, moved to Vb3 ... to vb6 and stopped. Now started with .Net and learning C# and VB.net and wishing VB.net was on MF !

Thinking of using this for GPS : LS20031

LOL Well if you want to make it really special add a Kinect like these guys at MIT:
I have to find the link again but I saw something using laser doing the same lol I like the Kinect idea but first lets make it fly (read hover) then we'll add mode (follow path, return home, land from here, etc...)
