Looking for something else to do with your Xiro Drone? Well I built a Arduino based data logger that is designed in a container that is compatible with Xiro Explorer V drones.
Comes with a small SD card or you can add you own.. but 256mb (yes megabytes) is enough to log data for about 25 mins, or more...so you don't need much.
You turn the unit on, fly the Xiro up down etc, even low over the ground to gather low altitude ground Temp data. Or test your Xiro altitude and see what you record.
Is it geek.....Sure...But who cares its fun...
35 bucks covers my cost to print the units and assemble them.
What could you do with the Data.... Well That is up to you.. Maybe you have need to record temp/altitude over a broad area and want to use a Drone to do it. Well Here you go.
