There are very professional and cheap flight controllers with speed controllers and IMUs. Problem is the algorithms eliminating sensor reading errors and proper flight stability. You need quite a calc power and fast mcu to achieve reasonable flight effect. Those algorithms are really sophisticated.

It's not about the pins. The flight controller is busy enough with the multiwii PID code and the NRF library would slow it down and make it have glitches. So it's better to use one for the radio receiver and another for the flight controller. Beside to merge both multiwii code and NRF module is a little bit more complicate. Keep up!

First of all, great job! Very informative video and i wanted to build my own Arduino based Tx/Rx and Flight controller and this video came as a real help. Thank you. I have built everything except the frame. RF Transmitter and Receiver work fine. Flight controller works fine. But when i connect everything (meaning connect D2, GND of Receiver to D2, GND of Flight controller), motors don't respond to the joystick movements. This is what i have observed: 1. Tested Rx with Rx test code and all joystick value prints correspond to the transmitted values. they change when joysticks are moved. 2. Calibrated the ESCs as described and found that the minimum value is 1200us and changed the same in multiwii config file. 3. Even the java GUI shows joystick values correctly when i change the joysticks, but motors don't spin! 4. I probed the PWM outputs of flight controller Arduino, they are at constant 500Hz, 50% duty cycle. They absolutely don't respond to any joystick changes. Any suggestions of where i should be looking further? Many thanks!

Have you activated the motors with throttle 0 and roll maximum for 3 seconds 7:00 ? Also are you sure that all the motros have the samw PWM range. Usually is 1000us to 2000us. Maybe you should reset the range for all the ESCs, it will take just 5 minutes. Use this tutorial for that: www.electronoobs.com/eng_robotica_tut5_1.php There you will find the calibration code. Keep up!

You calibrate your ESC's one by one. I used potentiometer as input device. Follow the steps as below: 1. Connect Arduino nano with Analog input (say A0 pin) from potentiometer. 2. Connect the output put (say Pin 8) to the ESC 3. Switch Potentiometer to Max Value 4. Connect Power to the ESC (Electronic speed controller) 5. You will hear Beap. 6. Immediately take the potentiometer to Min value 7. Again you will hear the beap 8. ESC is calibrated now 9. Repeat for all the motors independently. Hope this helps. I learned really hard way :)
