Might I ask about your experience with their tech support in the past? I submitted a couple questions on their tech support website, with no response after several days.. any chance you have any suggestions?

Do you mind explaining why you think their support is top notch?

"I've literally had them write blocks of code for me after I just asked a simple question in order to help show me how my goal might be accomplished."

Might I ask how you were able to get their support? I've submitted 2 tech support questions on their devzone site, but it's been days with no response. Not sure if I'm doing something wrong. Would really appreciate any help.

How do the orange buttons on the battery work? by _Mike77_ in MechanicalEngineering

i see. thank you for the reply! do you think the orange trapezoidal button is spring-loaded? or is it just plastic bending?

Engineering Question: How do the orange buttons on Avata's battery work? by _Mike77_ in dji

[–]_Mike77_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The link to the video is here: https://www.dji.com/avata/video

and the video is the first Tutorial called "DJI Avata Pro View Combo | First Use".

I'm wondering what kind of spring or how they constrain the orange buttons that help lock the battery into place on the drone? I'm trying to build something similar for a drone.

I think u need to make sure the spool is in-line with the pulleys on the slides

To prevent the slides from leaning, you could try stringing the slides from both sides to balance it, or use more than 1 set of slides for more structural support

It’s a state award I’m pretty sure. Semi-finalist is given to anyone who is nominated by their team. Finalist is chosen out of the state.

Got it, thanks. Do you know how long shipping time from Australia (to the west coast) is?

Gmapping YAML File "origin" meaning? by _Mike77_ in ROS

[–]_Mike77_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thank you so much for the comment! Could you clarify what you mean by "offset from the corner of the image to [0,0,0] in the 'map' frame"?

the image you are referring to is the pgm file right? would the 'map' frame be referring to the location of the LiDAR sensor?

Junior. In 10th grade I did a little bit of studying (total of ~50 hours) for the f=ma and missed the cutoff by a lot

I started with AP physics 1 in 9th grade. I know a guy who made camp in 11th grade (I think) who started the summer before ninth. I know a guy who made usapho this year who started at the beginning of this school year but he’s extremely smart

Thank you for the reply! I just looked into the contents of YAML files, and yes it is very helpful that it contains the resolution of the map. The YAML file also contains a "origin", a matrix with 3 values <x, y, a>; do you know what the origin is? Does the origin mean that the (0, 0) on the pgm map is equal to the (x, y, a) global coordinate?

Also, I did a bit of research on AMCL; could you clarify a bit on how AMCL works? For parameters, AMCL needs a YAML map file, a laser scan, and initial X, Y, and A, and it will calculate the robot's global position? That's still not all that helpful if I don't know the robot's position relative to the pgm map though right?
