I am looking for the smallest possible RTF ready-to-fly (read "attach controller only) frame for PXFmini. My controller may be Navio or rather the PXFmini by Erle Robotics.
Any suggestions welcome. I so far found the RJX80 80mm Micro but that is without motors, ESCs etc. I would preffer a more complete kit. In case you can not recommend a kit would someone be so kind to list their parts?
Well I need something really small so I was thinking about PXFmini actually. But I thought people also may have experience with Navio on micro drones so that’s why I am asking here :).
Well I think RPi+Navio2 could fit the 80mm or maybe 100mm frame. It is only a question of how to mount it - the controllers could be mounted from the bottom of the frame not to interfere with the rotors…
I am looking for ultra low cost drone mapping solution - to my knowledge the cheapest/simplest quad controller that can do GPS waypoint navigation and connect a camera is PXFmini (Linux + RPi camera or webcam). While Cleanflight may be able to do waypoint navigation I am affraid it is too simple for camera solution.
Ok. Sorry.
But you are asking for a solution using an 80 or 100mm quad frame.
An Inductrix FPV has a flying weight of just 24g for example.
A complete Navio setup, with RPi 3, GPS antenna, BEC, receiver etc. easily weighs 150g. How could you expect a micro quad to lift off with all that weight?
Well I am quite new to quads but because of weight I am considering RPi Zero + PXFmini. Was just wondering what may be the minimal setup people got up and running with Navio… Regarding weight - given enough powered motors that should not be a bit issue, right?
