This repository lists recommended hardware for building your own prototype.
In order to facilitate indoor testing and daily maintenance, we have not selected models that are too large or too small. Excellent performance and easy maintenance are our original intention to build this drone.
And if you wish, we could help you buy all of this hardware and send it to you. Or we can send you the links if you could use taobao.com. Please contact us for more details at [email protected].
This is a list of hardware that we used for testing. You may use the same hardware for your prototype:
Frame and power:
Frame: JMRRC GF360
Motor: T-Motor AIR GEAR 350
Propeller: T-Motor T9545-AB
ESC: hobywing XRotor micro 20A BLHeli 3-4S
Flight control and Sensor:
Flight control: Micro Pix
GPS: U-blox neo M8N + hmc5883l
Ampmeter: Shenyang Yingfeng Technology 3-6S 60A
Laser: LIDAR Lite V3
Optic Flow: PX4 FLOW
Communication equipment:
Radio: CUAV LINK 900mhz 250mw
Receiver: Frsky XM+
Battray: ACE 3S 5300mah 30C This configuration can fly for about 14 minutes at an outdoor temperature of 0-5 °C. It is believed that better outdoor performance will be achieved under better outdoor conditions.
Plan:
-
Test the stability of each brand of binocular camera.
-
Design a 3D printing (CNC) housing for the TX2 + TX2 base + two sets of binoculars.
-
Optimize the power supply for the TX2 master.
-
Optimize power configuration and PID based on existing tester configurations to provide a more efficient flight platform.
Related parameter settings for PX4:
EKF2_AID_MASK Attitude control sensor fusion
RC_MAP_OFFB_SW Get into offboard channel
We strongly recommend using the remote control's two-stage switch to enter the offboard mode instead of sending commands via TX2, especially if it has not been tested for long periods of time. Use the remote control to control the chances of entering the offboard to avoid accidents.
SYS_COMPANION TELEM2 working mode
Usually we need to choose Companion link (921600 baud, 8N1), so that the flight control TELEM2 port works at 921600 baud rate, we need to connect the flight control serial port to the TX2 serial port.
EKF2_HGT_MODE Height sensor type
By default, we will use Barometric pressure to call the barometer as a height sensor.
We recommend using the Range sensor parameter and purchasing a Lidar lite v3 laser sensor as the height sensor and specifying the port PWM / I2C used by SENS_EN_LL40LS.
(Lidar lite v3 can be powered separately for best results during use)

我们的项目完全开源,你可以用任何你希望使用的开发方式来开发 GAAS。
但如果你希望快速上手,直接开始写代码的话,你也可以购买 GAAS 团队内部自己使用的开发套件:

下面是我们使用的测试设备明细:
为了方便室内测试和日常维护,我们并没有选取过大或者过小的机型,优秀的性能和便于维护性是我们选配这架无人机的初衷。
机架动力:
机架:猛禽 360轴距 碳纤维机架
电机:T-Motor AIR GEAR 350 电机
螺旋桨: T-Motor T9545-AB
电子调速器: hobywing XRotor micro 20A BLHeli 3-4S
飞行控制设备及传感器:
飞行控制器: 沈阳迎风科技 Micro Pix
GPS :U-blox neo M8N + hmc5883l
电流计:沈阳迎风科技 3-6S 60A电流计
激光:LIDAR Lite V3
光流:PX4 FLOW
通讯设备:
电台:CUAV LINK 900mhz 250mw
接收机:Frsky XM+
电池: 格瑞普(格式) ACE 3S 5300mah 30C
该配置在室外气温0-5℃可以飞行约 14 分钟,相信在更好的室外条件下会获得更好的续航表现。
当前计划:
1.测试各品牌双目相机的稳定性。
2.为 TX2 + TX2 底版 + 两组双目设计 3D 打印(CNC)外壳。
3.为 TX2 底版做供电优化。
4.在现有的测试机配置基础上优化动力配置及 PID,提供更高效的飞行平台。
PX4 相关参数设定:
EKF2_AID_MASK 姿态控制传感器融合
RC_MAP_OFFB_SW 进入offboard模式的通道
我们强烈建议使用遥控器的两段开关进入 offboard 模式而不是通过 TX2 发送命令,尤其是在未经长期测试的条件下。使用遥控器控制进入 offboard 的时机会有效避免意外的发生 。
SYS_COMPANION 飞控 TELEM2 端口工作模式
通常我们需要选择 Companion link (921600 baud,8N1),使飞控的 TELEM2 端口工作在 921600 波特率下,我们需要连接飞控的串口到TX2的串口。
EKF2_HGT_MODE 高度传感器类型
默认我们将使用 Barometric pressure 来调用气压计作为高度传感器。
我们更建议使用 Range sensor 参数并购买 Lidar lite v3 型激光传感器作为高度传感器,并指定 SENS_EN_LL40LS 使用的端口 PWM / I2C 。
(使用过程中视情况对可对 Lidar lite v3 单独供电以获得最佳效果 )

bottom.SLDPRT 和 top.sldprt 为 TX2 + 两组小觅摄像头的壳体工程文件,可使用 solidworks 打开。
初版往往伴随着小 bug 和不合理,希望有经验的朋友可以多指正。
第二版加紧筹备中。
