I set up a small quad with a contemporary FPV system. In this case an 25mW ImmersionRC video transmitter using my GoPro 3 Black as the camera. I had wanted to compare the latency of this system against that of the Raspberry Pi. The problem is that I can’t use the GoPro to measure the latency of itself. I need to see if I can borrow another one. For now it was just nice to get out and fly.
The quad is a Quadrixette 30 from http://www.eyefly.info. It’s quite an old design now, but I like it because it is small (300mm), but still bale to carry some weight. The flight controller is a OpenPilot CC3D and I’m using a Spektrum AR8000 receiver with telemetry module to report the flight battery voltage.
One of my club mates was also at the field with his Tricopter so we had some proximity flying.
