Building a Quadrocopter from scratch.
/shared– Libraries that are used by the main controller and the motor control unit/controller– The code for the main controller of the Quadrocopter, an ATMega644/motorcontrol– The code for the motor control unit, an ATMega884/telemetrics– The code for the telemetrics module, an ATMega1284/contrib– Contributions like datasheets and schematics
Source code documentation is generated with Doxygen and can be viewed under http://ni-c.github.com/quadrofly/

The controller is the main controller of the Quadrocopter. It is responsible for the following tasks:
- Generation of 3.3 Volt power supply
- I2C Master
- I2C communication with the MPU-Gyroscope
- I2C Step-Up converter to 5 Volt
- I2C communication with the Motorcontrol module
- RF communication with the Telemetrics module
- Calculations (Kalman-Filter, PID-Control)
The motorcontrol is responsible for the following tasks:
- Generation of 5 Volt power supply
- I2C Slave
- Receiving and decoding RC-Signals
- Generating PWN for the brushless controllers
- Measuring battery power
The telemetrics is responsible for the following tasks:
- RF communication with the Quadrocopter
- Telemetrics logging
