The development history of the Arduino music infinity table.
The development history of the Arduino music infinity table.
2/6/2018 TO DO:
- Arduino audio input
- Table CAD
- Arduino light output
- Link the Arduino light output to the audio input.
At first glance, this looked like the most viable option. However, this version comes with some serious shortcomings:
My first task this summer was to build a model of the Bormatec MAJA for use in the PhoenixRC flight simulation software. This is a German-made long-range aerial surveillance vehicle with a pusher propeller and an extremely large wingspan. The problem with this drone, however, is that I lack the confidence to fly it; it’s big, expensive, heavy, and not entirely stable (though it does have stabilization, it was recommended we fly without it. I’m still not entirely sure how I feel about this).
This project is a ground-up discovery of the functions of Solidworks, Blender, and other modeling techniques. I’m coming in with 0 training, background knowledge, and experience, so most likely things will not be done as efficiently as they could possibly be.
The first thing that I decided to reconstr

Flight Training Curriculum
This document will take you through the flight training curriculum for CICATA. In order to fly a CICATA drone, you must at least be familiar with the checklists, procedures, and basic flight knowledge. Practical flight knowledge will be necessary for the non-trainer drones (those that are more expensive or difficult to fly).
As part of the flight training curriculum, all pilots will make use of a logbook system. This is so that we can ensure that pilots are qualified. If there is an anomaly with the airframe, this should be noted in the logbook and clearly marked in the airframe’s own logbook.
This is a rough draft. Using this guide does not mean that every flight you undertake will be a success. I am not responsible for damage to persons or property. Use this guide at your own risk; I am certainly not an expert on the topics at hand.

A building block on my journey to a full-on, hardware-in-the-loop flight simulator was a simple software-in-the-loop flight simulator.
While there is passable documentation over here, I found that much of the documentation was outdated and lacked important notes.

This guide is meant to replace the one on the official ArduPilot website, which appears to be somewhat deprecated.
- Cygwin with the required packages.
- MAVProxy for Windows
- GCC Compiler. Make sure to accept the license, install to default location, accept the SSL certificate, and check the option to "Add path to environment variable."
