Is either better ArduIMU or FY-30A? The main differences are: ArduIMU gives faster AHI draw (faster data flow, very faster :) ) ArduIMU doesn't need any extra devices to connect it. ArduIMU isn't available as v2, v3 is out, but is there a suitable firmware? ArduIMU DRIFTS VERY BADLY! FY-30: almost n...
Here the firmware for Arduino Mini Pro (only for 3.3v version, 8Mhz)
Firmware is the same as for ArduIMU, but has boudrate 38400 in place of 19200, because Arduino Mini works in 8Mhz frequency..
Here is the connection using Arduino Mini Pro 3.3v (make sure you get 3.3v for this task, 5v isn't suitable). Firmware for Arduino Mini Pro will be posted latter. Since it is 8Mhz mcu. Needs higher boudrates (38400 in place of 19200 as it was ArduIMU). Pinout for Arduino Mini Pro: http://img27.image...
For 10Hz refresh rate from FY-30A, must flash new firmware into FY-30A. Instructions here: Download attached FY-30A firmware (in the bottom of this post). Read firmware update manual: http://shop.fyetech.com/dl/firmwarefy30a.pdf Firmware update program here: http://shop.fyetech.com/dl/fy30afirmware1...
For those who has FY-30 as stabilizer and would like to use it as AHI (IMU) for DOSD+ 31207276 should follow this: You just need Arduino mini board (or similar with Atmega 328P and should be 3.3v level). Here I will use ArduIMU (as just converter). Step by step how to upload firmware (attached file ...
