Programming the flight controller:
(Finally) Safe Fuse Bytes
lfuse = 0xD6, hfuse = 0xB1, efuse = 0xfd
Using arduino avrisp:
avrdude -P comport -b 19200 -c avrisp -p m2560 -v -e -U flash:w:hexfilename.hex
Using USBasp
avrdude -c usbasp -p m2560 -v -e -U flash:w:tmp.hex
Writing fuse bits
avrdude -c usbasp -p m2560 -U hfuse:w:0xB1:m -U lfuse:w:0xD6:m -U efuse:w:0xFD:m

Description
Quadcopter flight firmware!
The end goal is to create future proof, easy-to-use
and customizable firmware for any flight configuration ( which is quite the lofty goal, but I'm working on it).
Sensors: - LSM303 Accelerometer / Magnetometer - MPU3050 Gyro - Adafruit ultimate GPS module - Maxbotix USRF (LV-EZ1) - BMP085 Barometeric Pressure/Temperature/Altitude
Features and long term goals:
- Fully autonomous takeoff and landing. Has the option to be controlled via radio comms.
-
9DOF sensor module (IMU) with GPS and localization
