Question

Hi Element14 Community....!!!

I'm very new to this electronics and the coding part,what ever the thing I know is some basic Electrics/Electronic....

I'm Mechanical Engineer pursuing 2nd year and I NEED some HELP on the Coding Bascis and how to dump the code to the Microcontrollers and use it for vary apllications
My main intrest is to use the coding Magic in the Aero filed...
Plz help me with the basic things later on I will try to do them ......

Streaming video isn't something I have tried before - I think it's quite a complicated step. I recently bought a "mini dv camera" off eBay to add on to my helicopter - the idea is to just start recording at takeoff, and let it go for the entire flight time. Much easier that way And yes, you can use Arduino with RC - several of those Instructables I pointed out do exactly that. But it does get complicated and you will have to learn how to do coding. I'm sure if you were to use Google, you would find some examples of how to stream video, and how to use Arduino with RC. I've seen some Arduino quad-copter sites too - do a search and you'll likely find useful code for everything you need, but you'll have to figure out how to change the programs to suit your needs. And it most likely won't be something that can be programmed in a single evening. Most things are possible, but it can often be very complicated and time consuming to put together. It sounds like you are trying to go from zero to super-complex in one step. You might want to take a step back and learn the basics first.

There are plenty of tutorials already on the web. I suggest starting there and then posting with particular issues you have. Mark

The Getting Started Guide shows you how to get set up, and how to install the sketch (aka code, program, firmware) onto the Arduino board. http://arduino.cc/en/Guide/HomePage I would recommend starting with an Arduino Uno - they are affordable and well supported. Oomlout has a very nice tutorial to get you comfortable using a variety of components. It will help you understand the code required to do different things: http://www.oomlout.com/a/products/ardx/
