I made a beowulf cluster of out 8 Pi's using instructions from the University of Southampton - you can probably find them with your google-fu if you're interested :)

What I wanna do is make a quadrocopter, that is controlled via wifi from a laptop. The laptop would then have a super long ranged wifi antenna and have a live camera feed coming from a gyro mounted camera so that you could point it in different directions without moving the copter. And to top all this off the camera would be controlled by an oculus and the copter controlled by this. http://gaming.logitech.com/en-us/product/extreme-3d-pro-joystick

I ran mine as a media centre for a bit, then as a torrent box whilst I was at Uni.

 

I've not gotten around to another project as I've not gotten SD card reader handy, but need to soon.

Sounds really interesting, but my idea was to make it as a 100% homemade project. So I would have to do my own wiring, programming and planning. I will google the information, to see if anything can inspire me. Thanks for the tip.

 

I just have so many planned project, so I donøt know where to start.

I would use one or two for a NAS, but the 100mb ethernet port instead of gigabit killed the idea for me.

ATM, ive set it up as a Retro gaming console with an SNES controller.  I also have an SD card with Debian and one with XBMC set up

Beneath this mask there is more than flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea, Mr. Creedy, and ideas are bulletproof.

As I get older I get angrier more cynical, meaner. I feel some warning posts coming. I feel a ban coming. I was warned.

Here is a video showing the four motors spinning, we are close to our first flight we just of to finish programming our gyroscope


 








 


We had the chickenwire because the rotor flew off going really fast the test before
