Full Arduino based drone. The tutorial is divided in a few parts. In this video I build the flight controller using the Arduino NANO and the MPU6050 gyro//accelerometer. To program the flight controller I've used the multiwii platform. Wait for the next parts, the radio receiver/transmitter and the final drone build.

I had tried to build a Arduino controlled quad a couple years ago, and I just got a 3d printer and I found your videos on this build. This will help allot in finally finishing this project. Thanks.

@hichamaklil6898 7 лет назад

great tutorial , thank you, I have a problem with two motors (front-R and rear-L),and their speed decreases automatically, although they are at maximum speed.

@Boris_Chang 3 года назад

I was really curious to see the code to test the sensors and control the motors. Sort of a bit like the code to keep a humanoid robot balanced and walking in any direction I suppose. That’s some pretty advanced stuff though.

@eric-janvandenbogaard9415 7 лет назад

Nice ! a very detailed project ! with easy to get parts and all Arduino based, Great !

@chandrurn 6 лет назад

What an effort, amazing, you must be crazy mad over electronics, The amount of time and energy you have dedicated for electronics is immense , keep it up :)

@ELECTRONOOBS 6 лет назад

Thank you very much!

@asdiamamence572 4 года назад

This is exactly what I'm looking for... Thank you so much

@palashtiwari1880 6 лет назад

Thanx for this video...i would like to know about the coding used in the Arduino.....how it works and more.....i have a question...i have seen other videos....in those videos they have used a barometer also and said programming a barometer is a difficult task ...what do u want to say about it..?

@66fpv67 4 года назад

Awesome man. Thank you for these tutorials. Im building this drone with my kids, with home made radio control as your previous videos. Unfortunately, my ecs don’t seem to work with ppm signal. They spin fast from throttle 0. I calibrated my radio control and work fine. Trying to find MultiWii setup directions for pwm singnal and cant find anything. Kids want to present this project to school.. Can you help me on this please?

@xxxd6068 5 лет назад

Hi, The motor says 'biggest thrust (g/s) - 1265/4' does that mean if I use 4 motor the total thrust generated will be 1.2kg or the one motor will generate that much thrust

@lthomas532 5 лет назад

Hey, great video. I wonder if you have a wiring diagram for a hexacopter? I would like my drone to have 6 motors. Thanks :)

@shutdahellup69420 6 лет назад

can i use these values with a 350 size drone with 1400kv motors?

@KhiemNguyen-oo9yp 2 года назад

thanks bro i work desprately to find this pid and now i find you i will smash the like button for you great jobs

@GaiusGarage 3 года назад

did you get data and clock backwards on the MPU6050? you have SDA labeled "clock", SCL labeled "data" - but seems like DA would stand for "DAta" and CL stand for "CLock"

@offensivebias3965 3 года назад

Best video tutorial ever !

@rodrigo_dm 7 лет назад

holy cow this was exactly what i was looking for. thank you. cant wait till next videos. Im also building a fixed wing drone, and i dont know how to send data to the arduino. any tips?

@ELECTRONOOBS 7 лет назад

Rodrigo D Madruga I'm using the NRF24 radio module and ppm output for the receiver. you will see in my next videos

@dantecaballero4939 5 лет назад

Hola! Estoy en proceso de armar un tricoptero, usando multiwii 2.3. No encuentro la sección del código en el cual indique en qué pin de Arduino conectar el servo para la cola. Tendrás alguna idea de dónde debería ver? Gracias!

@nerdgrenade4365 4 года назад

Hi their I was making the flight controller I soldered everything and connected to multi Wii I have a i2c error that increase in both postive and negative numbers pls help

@imanamal5522 6 лет назад

In the material list you use 12A esc right? is it can used 30A esc? thanks

@abdelhakimamer6989 5 лет назад

How does the flight controller work for any quadcopter design?

@rajatchandra7985 6 лет назад

Hey Electro i made the same connections u briefed about, the multiwii simulater is showing everything fine the gyro-accelerometer all the throttle yaw pitch etc but the output is not adequate i.e the pins to be given to ESCs, its showing values 8000(not 1000-2000)

@ELECTRONOOBS 6 лет назад

That's strange. Go to config.h, type cntrl+F in order to open the find tab adn search for MAXTHROTTLE variable and make sure it is 2000. And MINTHROTTLE is 1000. Keep up!

@dipanjanmaity6614 7 лет назад

hi electronoobs,can i use a gps module with this via I2C bus communication and a fpv camera for make it hitech drone

@especialistqap 4 года назад

el control en arduino trabaja igual que un transmiter y receiver regular ?

@jakefreise7601 6 лет назад

At 1:38 when you are listing the purpose of each connection you have SCL as data and SDA as clock, this is backwards AFAIK. The SDA pin is serially polled at the rate of SCL Other than that great video!

@shutdahellup69420 6 лет назад

Jake freise can these values be used for a 350 size drone with 1400kv motors?

@jamesnunieza4790 6 лет назад

How about if I only use 2 motors? How would the configuration look like?

@bktechnologies88 Год назад

This is so good I built mine and I want add a barometric sensor please how do I do it do I need to code 🙏🙏

@Raavanan_Veeran 6 лет назад

It is possible to fly a drone without the speed controller. (ie) from the receiver to the electronic speed controller. please answer my question.

@dabeasthalofan6276 2 года назад

So are the 5 volts for the flight controller supplied from the lipo battery or the esc’s?

@francoisguyot789 5 лет назад

Hey, my gyroscope is MU 2020, does it have to be programmed for Drone? It can be used by direct connection with Arduino!

@newssmartkids8862 7 лет назад

hello - any idea why the MPU6050 orientation on multiwii is continuously changing randomly. On clicking start on multiwii, the quadcopter image on the screen rotates in all direction uncontrollably. is something wrong? how do i correct it?

@deeseal9269 6 лет назад

Electronoobs.sir..i add barometer(bmp180 baro)..i2c pin...but not pogram it..1st.. open your brushed drone multiwii file...2nd.. open config.h and..do same..3rd.. open def.h...but i dont undersatand..how to pogram this baro..help me sir..

Why are you didn't connect BEC output from ESC to Vin pin of arduino nano?you connected BEC output from the ESC to 5v of nano .pleas reply

@MrCtronic 5 лет назад

God bless people like you that share their knowledge to the mortals around the world ! :D

@ltecsoluciones1026 6 лет назад

hola , gracias tenias toda la razón, utilice el enlace que me dejaste para configurar las esc y ya no pitan , no me encendían los motores por que quizás el radio control tiene otra configuración y me toco invertir el pin d3 con el d6 y ya encienden lo único que me falta es que al dejarlo sin acelerar los motores siguen funcionando que podría ser? gracias

@ELECTRONOOBS 6 лет назад

Eso es normal. Puedes quitar esa opción pero es mejor así. Piensa, si aceleras desde cero tendrás mucho mas turbulencias hasta que todos los motores tengan la misma velocidad y en ese instante el dron podría perder el control. Para eso cuando lo enciendes es mejor dejarlo a bajas rotaciones. Saludos!

Can u make a arduino uno flight controller without accelerometer and gyro

@pranavasthanaDelhi 4 года назад

Excellent video! I hope you are doing great. I had two question though. I plan to build a nano drone using coreless motor and i already have a flysky ct6b rx tx set. 1. Will the Multiwii code support flysky ct6b as it does not have a ppm output? 2. For coreless motors, what kind of motor driver/esc will be good or if its possible to make one? Thanks! Pranav

@lukejoel6070 4 месяца назад

Same here bro I bought 720 coreless motor and a 350 lipo battery after that I found that motor has low thrust to lift so I'm clueless. I have bought them. Is there any way to fly with these components

@pranavasthanaDelhi 4 месяца назад

Hi !@@lukejoel6070 , My conclusion is that for DIY drones its hard to keep them light enough for coreless motors to work. Better to go with brushless motors. If you want to use coreless motors then you will have to buy a flight control board which has inbuilt drivers for these motors(those are also cheap), you can then flash and configure betaflight. You may either buy the frame or 3d print.

@baasilbiniyamin5360 6 лет назад

I am just making a 450 class drone and I want the flight controller to be Arduino but I have flysky transmitter, is there any ideas to link up and controller. Please help me I am new to drones

@MindBit3 4 года назад

Is all of this applicable to fixed wings drones?

@hongingthorng5198 7 лет назад

I wondered can you possibly connected the 5V pin from the Arduino to Vcc pin from mpu6050 and then supply power from your computer to the boards? I thought you might risk burning the Arduino through connecting the board to your computer when you connected the 5V pin to other components.

@ELECTRONOOBS 7 лет назад

I'm not aware of that. I use arduino for more than 4 years and I never heard that. The USB 5V could suppl,y up to 1A of current. If you dont connect too much modules that could draw more than that, everything should be ok.

@alessandroaversa6378 4 года назад

Hey man , nice video tutorial ! Can i ask you to update when you can the link of the material ?

@sergiolopezmoriano3486 7 лет назад

Hola , es necesario el arduino en el mando? no vale uno tipico de radio control? Buen tutorial , enhorabuena.

@ELECTRONOOBS 7 лет назад

No es necesario, pero este tutorial es para un dron 100% con Arduino. Un transmisor/receptor normal con PWM o PPM también sirve.

@fethimadafak3156 6 лет назад

watawonderfulworld yes every drone needs ESC. 1 ESC for every motor. Take ESC with 30A its safe

@imemyself2820 6 лет назад

Hello @Electronoobs, how is the Arduino an advantage over normal flight controllers? I read people saying it is slow and have huge latency working as a FC for RC models but maybe you could connect Arduino to a conventional F4/F7 flight controller and have both? Can an Arduino run new software like Mission Planner, CleanFlight or ArduCopter? Is the Arduino compatible with conventional RC Tx and Rx systems? Would adding all the sensors mean you can program everything in a running loop i.e. something like "IF (sensor detects something 30cm away) THEN (correct_the_opposite_way)" or how does it work ? Sorry for asking so much, lol

@ELECTRONOOBS 6 лет назад

iMeMySelf you heard right. Arduino is slower and has no advantage. The only advantage is that you could learn how to.make your own flight controllers how to program it, what components do you need etc. This video is for learning reasons. Arduino is quite good but almost any other especially designed flight controller board is better. Keep up!

@gauravchugh9919 7 лет назад

first of all thank you...this is what i am looking for...you earned a new subscriber. i want little modification...why you made receiver separately? i want to use digital pins of flight controller arduino to connect nrf24l01 module and control esc of motors ...all with only one arduino. but i don't know what and where i have to change multiwii code to work like this. can you share some knowledge on this?

@ELECTRONOOBS 7 лет назад

Using multiwii is easier to just use another Arduino as the receiver of the signal as any other RC controller has and leave the flight controller micro work with the PID control. I don't have a video for changingh the multiwii code. Take a look at this one: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bxlJckevIEk.html
