The Aeroquad is done and very successful as many of you have seen, but it is electronically quite complex. So I thought I would try something slightly simpler that doesn’t need any sophisticated controllers to work , have a look.
I think it may be better suited for aerial photography, because you can put the camera between the front two motors, and it should be inherently stable with the gyros.

There is some amazing quadrotor stuff coming out of the University of Pennsylvania. Check out the video here: http://fling.seas.upenn.edu/~dmel/wiki/index.php?n=Main.Quadrotor#
The Atmel AVR seems to have become quite popular in the past few years. Did you go with the ATmega328P on your Aeroquad?
Hi Logan: I used the Atmega128 on the Arduino Mega board, its got more memory(I’m looking
to the future) with altitude hold and GPS as a possibility. The 328 has about 29k bytes used
by the program out of 32k the 128 has 128k of ram. Thats some pretty fancy maneuvering they
are doing at the Video. I wonder how many Aeroquads it took to get through the hole.
