Re: [Paparazzi-devel] Java UAV controllerboard specifications

[Steven Beeckman]

Yes I know this is possible with the Paparazzi-project. I just wanted to
know what I need for input and output on my java-controlboard. Apparantly:
* 2 or 3 analog inputs for the infrared-sensors (one for pitch-angle,
one for roll-angle, one for yaw-angle?)
* serial port for GPS
* 5 digital output lines (4 servos - without rudder control - and one
for the electromotor?) [I actually think that the electromotor needs an
analog output]
* networking with groundstation: this can be done with an RF
transmitter, but I'm actually thinking about a WLAN connection (but I
have yet to search the net for a small WLAN-chip).

So if you have any tips or remarks, please let me know.

Greets,

Steven
