I have been contemplating a project since I have gotten into microcontrollers. Would it be possible to make a UAV out of a AVR microcontroller some accelerometers and a digital compass? I still dont know how I would aquire the altitude and airspeed though. I was thinking that just to get the plane in the air and flying straight and level would be great, and then incorporate a gps into the design so it could have waypoints. Any ideas or suggestions? THANKS
