W tak pustym terenie nie widać skali i wydaje się że to zupełnie mały wiatraczek ale warto zwrócić uwagę że to zielone to nie krzaczki tylko drzewa, to co widać pod koniec filmu po prawej to całkiem duży słup energetyczny a "drzwiczki" na słupie mają wielkość człowieka bo tamtędy sie wchodzi do środka.

Engines cut off and the drone just falls down. So you can't perform any real acrobatics - except for the everyone's favorite AR.Drone 2.0 automated flips, of course!
This ability was previously demoed by Parrot at trade shows, performed by a special version of the "old" AR.Drone
Regular AR.Drone 1.0 owners still cannot do it...
But today, for the first time, a stock AR.Drone 1.0 running regular firmware breaks the rules and performs a flip!
Of course it's not the flip what is important here.
After all, we can just purchase AR.Drone 2.0 - problem solved.
Why bothering with the old drone?
No, the real benefit is the ability to fully control the drone and execute any acrobatic stunts manually.
Yes, it's much more challenging than "double tap to flip".
But how many times can you watch the drone performing the same flip before it becomes boring? (Look for the quadrocopter acrobatics on youtube to see
what I mean)
All this, and much more, will be available in my revolutionary AR.Drone control application (that for now does even have a name or release date ;-) Please come back later and see if there is any additional information in youtube video description)

DIY-friendly interface for connecting all kinds of hardware to your
AR.Drone and controlling it by easy to use application.
Of course the new AR.Drone 2.0 now has the compass, so this
particular modification is no longer as intersting as it was before
(unless, like me, you only have the old drone, or you want to learn
how the magnetic signals turn into heading angle).
Note that the calculation shown in the video is slightly simplified,
the "circle" can sometimes look like an ellipse, and I ignored the
influence of drone tilt on magnetic readings and the "soft iron"
problem. Nevertheless, everything you saw is true and this particular
sensor in this environment gives a clean circle and calculating the
north direction is easy and quite accurate, even without using
more sophisticated methods.
Parts used:
- AVR ATmega162 microcontroller
- Dual-axis Magnetic Sensor MMC212xMG
Music:

Conclusions:
- Turns out that the autostabilization (cancelling the drone tilt) should be more relaxed, currently the rapid servo movements do not really stabilize :P (only in long term, preventing the camera from looking down when going forward and looking at the sky when going backwards).
- Moving the stabilization code from the iPad app to the drone should also help, currently it all goes through the unreliable wifi connection.

The cheap and lightweight 808 #11 keychain camera is a perfect addition to AR.Drone! It has some drawbacks, though:
- Narrow view angle. That's why the extra fisheye lens.
- Poor light sensitivity (worse than the drone cameras). Not a big problem, unless you try to film a christmas tree at night! For this video the brightness has been boosted using the gamma filter and it is still too dark...

Conclusions:
- Adding a single pressure sensor is enough for rough altitude stabilization and solving the infamous "flyaway" problem. Seems like a good guess of what Parrot could add in their next generation drone.
- The drone can be forced to use additional altitude sensors even without changing the firmware. This is nice, because it makes such modification compatible with all firmware versions, all control applications and all other mods.
Theoretically, such "artificial echo" add-on could be even acoustically coupled, like the ancient modems, without any electrical connection to the drone.
- If we wanted to stick with the presented interfacing method, we need more accurate altitude measurement. Averaging multiple sensors? Laser ranging? Using accelerometer for sensing short term altitude changes? Anyway, it becomes too complicated, compared with the "regular" method, that is inserting some additional logic between the control application and the firmware or even modify the firmware. This way the newly added information on the atmospheric pressure can be inteligently combined with other sensors, instead of pretending it is the ultrasound measurement.
Components for the barometric altimeter:
- Bosch BMP085 pressure sensor
- Atmel ATtiny85 microcontroller
- few resistors and capacitors
- total cost ~ $15
Software used for making this video:
- Synfig Studio (animated sequences)
- GIMP (image editing)
- Cinelerra (video editing)
- ffmpeg, mencoder (video conversions)
- Flight Record (recording drone video)
- Eagle (schematic capture)
