[ERPS] On the road

I'm off - but then you knew that. I'm on the road for the next few days. Among my errands is a trip to Mojave to say hi to our friends at XCOR, and pick up our high pressure nitrogen tank. I expect to be there on Thursday, though with only two static tests and no flights I probably won't stick

[ERPS] some good things I have done in the Armadillo software

Integration of remote pilot / graphlog / simulator / gpsview into a single windows program (rprog.exe). These were all previously separate programs, but integrating brought several benefits. Allowing flightcontrol.c / flightcontrol.h to live in both the linux flight computer and rprog. These

I will try and take a look at this later today. I know we went over this once before, but I'll say it again -- I really think writing kernel drivers is the wrong approach. All my code just runs as root and uses iopl() to allow access to the io ports for polled A/D and the parallel port for ac

Re: [ERPS] Gizmocopter/Flight Controls code

Funny, must be telepathy ... just screened the sourceforge for rocket related things (in particular NMEA 183 Code) and stumbled over the openvtvl project. Then I wondered about the age of some files which were 5 seconds and modified by DM :-) small world ... cheers Bruno -- Bruno Berger Sw

[ERPS] Gizmocopter/Flight Controls code

I have started cleaning up the CVS repository for the flight controls code. Part of this includes a re-org of the directory structure and files. Go to and follow instructions for getting the code from CVS. If you want to be added as a developer send me an emai
