Pressure Sensors

[himszy]

Hi,

I'm making my own AUV, and wondered if you guys had a pressure sensor that I could use?

Thanks

himszy, you might check out this thread (http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=403406) about differential pressure sensors for airspeed/AOA measurements, and this thread (http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=407265) for absolute sensors used in altitude measurements.

I use the MPX4115A and MPX5010 sensors from Freescale Semiconductor (http://www.freescale.com/) for my altitude and airspeed, respectively. You can get them for free by requesting a sample. They're pretty common among hobbyists types but there are also others that people use - the threads above have a few links.
