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.

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...)

Hi everyone,
In about a month, I should put online my new site MichelTrahan.com and put many structured tutorials for the netduino on it.
When I say structured I mean that each and everyone of the tutorials will be backed by a Fritzing diagram, Full C# solution and complete documentation in both french and english (being in Quebec, this is mandatory).
Here is the global structure. Please comment if you see something missing or not appropriate. This is High Level.
Home
Curriculum
Readings
Best Shots
Netduino Tutorials
Introduction
.net MF and netduino
Board setup and configuration
Development tools
Inputs
Outpts
Storage (ND+, ND++)
Communication (ND+, ND++)
Power Supply (3.3V)
Beginners
Driving a simple LED
LED using PWM
Analog Temperature
Showing Temperature with a 7-Segment Display and one button (F or C)
Showing Temperature with a 4x20 LCD and 4 buttons (function, F or C, up down)
Showing Temperature Graphic History with a 600x200 Screen and 4 buttons again
Intermediate
Running a simple web server
Talking to ThingSpeak
Loggin it to SD Card
Loading code from an SD Card
... any other ideas ?
Widgets and Helper class
not there yet ... any ideas ?
Advance Topics
Writting native drivers (work for you Chris Walker!)
Full Fledge Projects
Robotics
Home Automation
Quadcopter (my own project, it should take a year and the ND Mega, read speadier)
------------------------
Basics
What's Needed
Pullup Resistors (Or Electronics Refresher (or tutorial for me lol) would be best)
Where to get things
Netduino Namespace Docs (automatically generated by sandcastle)
------------------------
Submitting Projects or Tutorials
Rules (Fritzing diagram, C# code, documentation)
Tools Needed (Fritzing, Inkscape, VS2010)
-----------------------
People, Groups and Sites
Forums
Have not decided on which structure to put here ... I love the netduino forum format (ip.board)

Chris ... we want namesWe actually work on quite a few commercial .NET MF-based electronics products (including mass-market ones) over on the commercial/consulting side of the business. Outside of that, I know that quite a few specialized products use .NET MF.
LOL I think Hanzibal wanted to have names ... Am I right ?

I am very serious to get this tutorial built, planing to buy a .com or .org for it, serious. If we agree that it need to be, I'll buy it tonight (almost bought it this morning since both are available) ... should it be .com or .org ?

Hi Everybody,
I am thinking of buying a .com domain for netduino tutorials and call it ... netduinotutorials.com ? (should it be .org ?)
I want to document every project/tutorial with Fritzing diagrams (Fritzing.org) (Thanks to Stefan for this link), Visual Studio C# solutions, and a lot of explanation ... about many things.
I would also like to include a coding style (make many things static since we are in a very small footprint (does that make sense for an explanation ?)
I would like to invite many (like omar) to donate their project to this tutorial effort. I would like it to be open source with editing to enforce coding style (would that be too much to ask ?)
This project will take time since I want every project to be defined into Fritzing (read defining the parts graphics and specs).
Anyone interesting about that ?
Mike

Hi everyone,
Here is the zip file containing all the HTML files generated by the sandcastle tool for the SecretLabs namespace.
I will build on that, hope it helps.
Mike.
p.s.: darn I have to split the files ... bigger than 2 megs ... put them back into one directory before using them ! The start pages of the namespace documentation starts with the letter N
p.p.s.: can anyone tell me why the chm file was not created ? I am on windows 7 64bits ...

Add a yellow for the right position you want (hardcoded since no interface) and a red when you go beyond the right position. That would be a perfect solution. (human factor specialist in me had to comment)

Would it be too much to ask to package this project and transfer it to the wiki somehow ? Thanks for posting !I needed to provide a web server for a project I worked on a while ago (details here) which can be used to isten on multiple ports - just put each listener in it's own thread.
