Menno´s Parade of AQ6 Extension Boards - CAN, Current, LEDs

[kinderkram]

Yah, thumbs up!

Btw: are the parts on the upper left of the OSH photo new connection boards? They don't appear anywhere...

Menno,

Wow, excellent work!

Could you show us how the connections from the CAN board to the motors is being made? How about the CAN termination?
I am asking since this would be similar to the connection scheme of the DIMU... (?).

So, the last test:

Currentsensor with 50A 758 sensor..
Only low current test so far, not yet mounted in de copter, but with defaults already pretty accurate.

Menno,

Please let me know when you think the LED boards and the current sensor will be available for purchase? I am interested - but in no rush, so anytime will work for me...

Cheers, Axel

Hey, got the LED sample boards today. Great work, Menno.

DO you think there is a way we could integrated them directly into AQ and drive them off a GPIO?

I dont use Hott, and I was thinking that to use a Promini or similar, just to drive some LED´s was a bit overkill, so I would really like to see provisions for driving Smart LEDs directly from AQ. Otherwise, I think I have some femtoduinos that I could use.

Thanks

Jussi
