Gizmodo and Engadget published the date of introduction of the iPhone OS 4.0 – It’s April 8 (Thursday)
It’s amazing that Apple will release the new OS so close to the iPad launch.
The message from Apple:
Get a sneak peek into the future of iPhone OS
engadget Germany announces the release of the iPhone HD at June 22. At this date the iPhone 3Gs would have its first birthday 
If that is true or what will come – We will hear it at thursday.
Hi Guys!
In January an article on Hacked Gadgets showed a Mikrokopter from Nicoleto.
After visiting his homepage I saw a really nice concept for the HD camera mount.
And – it’s like a biiiig iPod.

Hi guys.
Today I had a security problem with my WordPress Blog. A funny guy thought that he has to reset my WordPress installation.
But no problem – the last backup was loaded within minutes and the Blog was online again.
Good news for all iPhone, Android and smartphone users! – Today SpeedyWeb got an update and is now available over iPhone and other smartphones in a “compact” mobile theme. I hope you enjoy that.

This summer I was paragliding at the Hochjoch (Montafon, Vorarlberg, Austria). It was a very exciting experience. If I had enough time in the moment I would start this Sport immediately. To log the flight I used my iPhone which I had in my pocket. I was surprised that the logged data was so good. (see map below)
I made the next step in the direction of WiFi. Some days ago I surfed the Internet for an embedded WiFi module for less money. And finally I found the WiFly GSX modules from Roving Networks. Their slogan is “Wireless for less”
So I ordered some evaluation boards (about 100€/pcs) for me and two collegues who are studying with me at the NTB. Our goal is to have fun with wireless applications.
The RN-131 GSX Module is a 802.11 b/g wireless LAN Module with a lot of features – Details see datasheet.
If you already have a GSX Module you can use my LabView source below to show the UDP packets which the module sends in default configuration every 7 seconds.
The packets include
This information can be used to open a TCP connection to the module or to configure it over WiFi. The module has to be in the same subnet as your PC or MAC if you want to receive the packages.
Here are some pictures of the Module in action:

Hi Guys!
In the last weeks I thought about new projects (beside the Mikrokopter project). So I started to study Objective-C programming by myself to be able to code iPhone applications in future. A good start for doing that is the book “Cocoa Programming For Mac OS X” by Aaron Hillegass.
A good podcast to start with Objective-C from the real basics is also this one from Peter and Ingo: http://0×02100.silutions.de/blog.html
Another good resource that I am using is the Stanford iPhone programming course, which is available over iTunes U and resources to the course are here: http://www.stanford.edu/class/cs193p/cgi-bin/index.php
Because the SPP Bluetooth profile is currently not supported by the iPhone (OS 3.1), data transfer has to be done over TCP/IP or some other “frickel-ware” tricks (Audio, Display and Camera, other BT-profiles, …).

Hi MK-friends!
I attended the 3rd outdoorflying in Zürich and it was a lot of fun. Of course I had my digital video camera with me and now you can watch the whole day in a short 9 minute clip. Of course there are some scenes with the EPI-OSD hardware with the new C-OSD software from Cascade. A short clip with EPI-S (current measurement) is also included. It was really fun to meet some guys from the forum and to have “real” talks. And of course we had some sausages over the fire (The fire was heated by Mikrokopter(s))

To improve my Kopter for this event I finally found the time to mount the PET “Haube” onto the Kopter. Pictures will follow in the next days.
Hi Guys!
Yeah, it’s summer and now I have time to continue my investigations in FPV-flying. Some weeks ago I had a little disaster and crashed my FlightCtrl and my NaviCtrl (shortcut in the connection cable).
So I had to order a new NaviCtrl immediatly. I had luck, the MK-GPS and EPI-OSD survived.
And now – my Kopter is back (better than ever *ggg*)
Ok, let’s get to the topic.
A lot of people asked me, how I mount the camera and the EPI-OSD on my Mikrokopter. Thats a little bit complicated to explain and so I took some pictures to show you how I did it.
Update – 30.05.09: Attention, if you want your C-OSD Version to work fully together with the NaviCtrl you have to connect the EPI-OSD to the debug port of you NaviCtrl!
I hope that I will have some time in the next weeks to do my first FPV Tests with video recording to post it here (maybe the weather is nice

Greetings,

As you probably know I am a member of a team that has to built a robot. This is part of my education at the NTB in Buchs in the first two semester.
Here is a short clip of the actual status. Details will follow at the end of the project.
