Omg..its so clean..nearing perfection 

Good innovative use of the smiley balls too. Fabulous     

few more photos.
Pl see the board.
See how well the cables are rouited.

The first picture is a compltely wired ready to take off quad. pl note how nicely the ESCs, Battery and other wiring is consealed.

Hi Ashta Sir,
I have a small suggestion. Since the stress (smiley) ball is kind of glued to the boom, there is a chance it getting dislodged. What about a secondary 'Impact arrestor' landing gear near the ball which would save any such impact from hitting the Lipo hanging low. The frame would get a jolt, but the Lipo would be safe.

Does you design take PPM single directly from the receiver? I am working on flash my Orange FASST Rx with TFR8-SP firmware which would give me both RSSI and C-PPM output. This would reduce much of wiring on the board.

thank you

thanks sundaram velar.

This has come out very well. With even min vibration free mounting, it is working beautifully. very very stable.
i am waiting for the magneto meter also to complete the project and offer it to the community at my basic cost.

surely ujjwaana. that is only a temp arrangement. have to have better arrangement. i have not put in much efforts since there are many options for the frame.
This design take PPM directly

ashta

great work Mr. Ashta , could you please tell me the price so that i will get one

thanks rasheed. just wait for few more days. i will come out with the price.

hello Friends,
As expected, the magnetometer also arrived and i have completed the testing of this MWC board completely. Now all the following are tested and ready.
Gyro: Only Gyro is enough for a stable and aerobatic flight.
Accelerometer: For lateral stability.
Magnetometer:Directional stability
Barometer: Altitude hold.

Pl find some pictures. Pl read the comments on the photos.
The video is taken on the factory floor. See the SMT machines like the screen printer, Pick and Place and the reflow machines which are required to produce this board.

more photos.

More photos and the video
Pl note that this is a video with only Gyro enabled. See how stable the quad is.
The video is taken from our SMT factory. Notice the SMT equipments like the Screen printer, Pick and Place and the reflow machines, which arte used to make this board in the back ground.

Ashta bhai - You should really really consider marketing this in the US forums. There is some logistics involved, but I am sure if the price is right, you will have a huge target audience.

Ashta

That is true. A great job and certainly worthy of international exposure.

thanks Anwar. I will persue this.

thanks sushil, for the kind words.

I presume the bootloader will be programmed before you send them out ? Not that it matters to me, but it will save the cost of a programmer for most folks.

Also could you add the editing required in source code config to your doc ?

dear rajesh,
i have provided the ISP connector on board. Using this i load the boot loader. Once boot loader is programmed, then user can laod the latest version of Alex's code as available.

As standard i send the board with Quad P software loaded. I can include a standard USB cable also to down load the SW if required.

Further fine tuning of PID values and others  are done thru Configurator.
when u ar free, we can go thru one round.
thanks and regards
ashta

Great great great job sir   

thanks rajsigma

Ashta, I'm not familiar with how Alex releases the code. I was looking at the source code. Isn't there any customization required in config.h to match your board ?

We can go through it together once and document the process.

it is very simple.
Just un comment/ comment few lines.
yes. tell me when

I have complted testing of this board for all the configurations namely
Gyro alone: Enough for a stable quad/tri etc. capable to do aerobatics.
Plus accelerometer: For lateral stability
Plus Barometer: for Altitude hold
Plus: magnetometer: For direction hold.

Hre i am sharing the Installation Manual
pl go thru and comment

Congratulations Ashta! This is quite an achievement  
If possible please replace the connection diagram on page three with a higher resolution one.

thanks. as of now i do not have a better pic. The multiwii link has the original pic. i will also look for it and try to change
thanks.
