Control Board PCB Circuit

Not really my place to post this up, but since its been a while since the last post, something needs to be put up!

Designed by Dan over the last week, this is the Rev2 board and it doesn't feature a PIC32, but a MCU from the PIC18F family.  It will be a double sided PCB possibly made at Seeed studio and will have a few made.  From memory 10 boards at $4USD per board, exc freight to New Zealand.  I will leave Dan to explain the features of his exciting new board :P

What have I been doing?  Not much to show.  Exams have just finished, and have been quite busy sorting out other stuff.  Slow progress is being made on the front of writing a funding proposal, and we have had a private sponsor donate a good sum of money to get us started, you know who you are, thank you very much!

After modification after modification, we have finally agreed on the airframe and what sensors etc we are going to be using.  The airframe is a URSUS made by a Polish company, linky, the website, however, is in Polish (funnily enough) so scroll down a bit and on the right bar should be a google translate box.

No I didn't choose it because of the sexy colour scheme ;)

Two 5000mAh batteries should be enough to keep this bird in the air for a good half hour to an hour at a time.  A spare 2200mAh battery will power the electronics and be a backup for the servos(citation needed).

Shucks - I just realised something we didn't have on the circuit.  Will message Dan about that now..

Stay tuned!!!
