But &lt;a href="http://wiki.paparazziuav.org/wiki/Apogee/v1.00"&gt;Elle0&lt;/a&gt; can be used on more than just Nano Quads, it has everything on board to control anything from a small Quad through a big Octocopter to Airplanes or Helicopters. For an autonomous UAV you just need to add a GPS, Telemetry radio and maybe RC receivers. ;)&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Parrot Bebop 2 Support</title><link>https://docs.paparazziuav.org/blog/2015/11/19/parrot-bebop-2-support/</link><pubDate>Thu, 19 Nov 2015 00:16:47 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://docs.paparazziuav.org/blog/2015/11/19/parrot-bebop-2-support/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://docs.paparazziuav.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/screen-shot-2015-11-17-at-2-44-14-pm-png.png"&gt;&lt;img src="https://docs.paparazziuav.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/screen-shot-2015-11-17-at-2-44-14-pm-png-300x225.png" alt="screen-shot-2015-11-17-at-2-44-14-pm-png"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Parrot has released their new Bebop 2 camera quadcopter. Paparazzi UAV already has &lt;a href="https://github.com/paparazzi/paparazzi/pull/1429"&gt;support for that new platform&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&#10;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://docs.paparazziuav.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/screen-shot-2015-11-17-at-2-43-39-pm-png.png"&gt;&lt;img src="https://docs.paparazziuav.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/screen-shot-2015-11-17-at-2-43-39-pm-png-300x225.png" alt="screen-shot-2015-11-17-at-2-43-39-pm-png"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Thanks to the great work of the &lt;a href="http://mavlab.lr.tudelft.nl/"&gt;TU-Delft MavLab&lt;/a&gt; team and especially &lt;a href="https://github.com/fvantienen"&gt;Freek van Tienen&lt;/a&gt; it is possible to replace the stock functionality of the Parrot Bebop 2 with Paparazzi UAV.&lt;/p&gt;&#10;&lt;p&gt;This change gives the platform a lot of autonomous flight enhancements like dynamic flight plans, as well as improved stabilization algorithms like the INDI controller.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Multi MAV Autonomous Flight</title><link>https://docs.paparazziuav.org/blog/2015/09/27/multi-mav-autonomous-flight/</link><pubDate>Sun, 27 Sep 2015 11:42:09 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://docs.paparazziuav.org/blog/2015/09/27/multi-mav-autonomous-flight/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;Rich Burton of &lt;a href="http://hooperfly.com"&gt;Hooperfly&lt;/a&gt; made a video showcasing the flexibility and accuracy of the &lt;a href="http://paparazzi.enac.fr"&gt;PaparazziUAV&lt;/a&gt; system running on the&#10;&lt;a href="http://1bitsquared.com/collections/autopilots/products/lisa-mx-autopilot"&gt;1BitSquared Lisa/MX autopilot&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&#10;&lt;p&gt;Using Paparazzi&amp;rsquo;s flight plan software to dictate a pattern of waypoints for three of his TeensyFly MAV&amp;rsquo;s to take off autonomously, hover, fly a rectangular pattern, hover and land.

A smaller – and lighter – autopilot allows these small flying robots to fly longer, fit into narrower spaces or carry more payloads, such as cameras. That makes them more suitable to be used in rescue operations for example. Remes: “Our aim?

The airborne hardware was minimal. It only consisted in a GPS receiver, a pic micro-controller and a modem. The pic would transmit GPS data to the ground. The plane was steered from the ground laptop using the buddy jack input of the radio control transmitter. The plane was equipped with a genuine FMA stabilizer and we tried to pilot &amp;ldquo;through&amp;rdquo; it.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
