Photos From the Maiden Flight
The controller has only flown once so far. You can see the photos taken during this maiden flight on Robert's site.

R/C Aerial Photography
This is David Grenewetzki's site. David is the recognized originator of DC20 aerial photography. Although I didn't use his circuits or code for this project, I wouldn't have been able to complete it without the info from his site.

Mr. Grenewetzki's site describes a project using a PIC controller to drive a DC20 by way of an R/C transmitter/receiver. Very cool stuff.

DC20 serial connector specs
Oliver Hartmann describes the serial connector and the protocol for communicating with the DC20.

PIC code for commanding the DC25
Pete K. describes PIC code for transmitting serial data, specifically to the DC25. His project was built for use on a model rocket. Find lots of other cool model-rocket oriented electronics on his site.
