Wow!!Just what i was looking for, thanks for sharing. Keep up the great work...

Excellent instructable.I would suggest you to go for a smaller ESC, as i think you could reduce weight there.

Excellent man.lovely, you have my vote.

Nice instructableyou can always edit and add that video again.

Thanks mate. I got them right from the seller site as ebay doesnt work for me.

Funny little toy.Nice creativity man...

Nice...

Kids these days.....Nice build actually, kinda weird, but nice hookup of the electronics

thanks mate

Yeah i will be adding a video, im just afraid to take apart my work-desk (i used it to push out a drawer), and it doesnt work as i fried a servo with the 3s lipo, but yes, ill try adding one ASAP.

Open up your ESC and smell all the fets, the one with the most weird smell will be possible damaged..Or else, power up your esc with a NiCd battery pack, with the esc open and heatsinks off, the one that sparks, produces magic smoke, or burns is the bad one.

I have replaced my own servo tester with a thumb throttle potentiometer (for my upcoming e-bike project)... What you need to do first is open up the servo tester, locate the potentiometer, and then identify the pins (+V, Gnd and Output) using a multimeter, as potentiometers on servo tester have tendency a to have a funky pinout.Once you have done this, unsolder the potentiometer, then solder the wires from your thumb throttle pot onto the respective pins. I really suggest you try and get a thumb throttle pot of the same value as the pot on the servo tester (mine was 5k). Remember to rout the wires through the case before this operation, or else you will need to resolder them, Finally, just replace the case back onto the tester, or leave it that way if you want it without the case.

Nice idea, but would have loved if it were wireless ( maybe an ht12d and ht12e for a simple motor control circuit).

As far as i know, you can use arduino uno. Just go by the connections, and do a test on the multiwii gui to see if it detects it.

Your code is excellent. Can i have your permission to adapt it to a gesture controlled quadcopter project im working on?

So you mean the arduino (hobby microcontroller) is essentially illegal for use on Multirotors?

Wonderful.I'll try it out soon (though i have no idea on how to use the Raspberry Pi).You got my vote, im sold.

Excellent... To be honest, i suggest a larger playfield as it will be difficult to dribble and score with such a small playfield. No matter what, the simplicity of your design is wonderful.

Im not sure what you mean, but i think youre trying to integrate two sensors into one.So, instead of using trig on one an echo on one, just short the two pins, and connect the wire as shown in the instructable, because integrating the 2 sensors into one is a difficult task.Best of luck.

plenty of lhs, there is always eBay and amazon.And other internet stores like rcbazaar and quadkopters etc

kV doesnt matter so long as you have thrust, look at the thrust tables for the motor

i'd suggest attaching rubber pads to give traction as it seems to slip on the floor

thanks glad you found it cool :)

thanks

Nice you got my vote

Glad you had success hope it helped.

do the favourite ESC's respnd well??heard bad reviews

booms would work better. I used a coat hanger because it was at the desired angle.

sounds like a solution.

you have any idea of integrating that onto foam-board??i'm working on a tricopter made using foam-board and am puzzled by the yaw mechanism.I received a hacksaw yesterday so im trying to make that

that's a much better yaw mechanism, I did not have access to power tools so i could'nt make one of that kind.
