Applying failsafe algorithm to Crazyflie 2.0
Posted: Thu Sep 08, 2016 7:12 am
Hi,
For a graduation project, I was planning to buy a Crazyflie 2.0 and perform a failsafe algortihm to land the Crazyflie safely if a propeller / motor stops in mid-air. Just like in this video: http://robohub.org/quadrocopter-failsaf ... ller-loss/
But when looking at the video, two questions pop in my mind:
- Can I modify the Crazyflie 2.0 so that I can arrange the speed of each motor seperately? (even turn one single motor off during fligt?)
- Are the DC motor speed controllers fast enough to perform such a failsafe algorithm? Or is it better for me to look at AC motors with an ESC.
Thanks in advance,
