Following its world premiere at the Linz Klangwolke in September 2012, the Ars Electronica Futurelab’s (AT) computer-controlled swarm of four-rotor mini-whirlybirds—so-called quadcopters—took to the air again on Saturday, March 23, 2013 in a role and setting no less spectacular than the exciting technology itself: as high-tech heralds of Paramount’s “Star Trek – Into Darkness” that’s opening in movie theaters on May 9th. A squadron of 30 LED-studded AscTec Hummingbird quadcopters hovered above Potters Fields Park near London’s Tower Bridge and, in conjunction with Earth Hour, formed a three-dimensional Star Trek logo in the night sky.

It does not fly… yet but as my brother said “it wants to”. I have to better balance the whole thing, reduce the vibration to the gyros, balance the props, fix the broken parts of the frame, neaten up my wiring, test and check everything twice and then it’s a simple matter of learning to fly it. Does anyone see a problem here?
Upon attempting to take off the quadcopter wants to either spin or flip over on a diagonal axis. But I’ll get there. A very big thank you to my brother Luke for helping me every step of the way.

Quadcopter, also known as a drone, DJI Phantom 2 camera GoPro HERO 4 Black during the flight time in the mountains.
We are hoping to eventually do FPV (First Person View: in short fly remotely by camera & monitor) with the quads and a Go Pro Hero 2 like this one might be the best choice. In this photo the GoPro is simply recording and it’s being flown by sight.
The GoPro could record video in true HD 1080P on-board to an SD card and the standard def “Live Out” could have OSD (On-Screen Display: provides data like horizon line, altitude, compass heading, GSP, signal strength, battery voltages/amps and more) mixed in before being transmitted to the pilot on the ground. This would provide the best of both worlds. Recorded HD video and live OSD info to the pilot.
The single biggest problem with this is the borrowed nature of the GoPro. We cannot drill a hole in the plastic housing to gain access to the “Live Out” and we can’t completely hack a mount to place the camera how we would like. I guess we need to splash out and get our own. GoPros are very cool and not too pricey.

This is not my machine. I happened upon this group of multi-rotor drones or UAV's when I went to a park in Berkeley to fly my own quadcopter.
Quadcopter Flying in Berkeley
The Spaxels, the quadcopter swarm of the Ars Electronica Futurelab were part of the big celebration launching the northern Swedish city of Umea’s term as European Capital of Culture on February 1. 30 Spaxels took to the sky for a five-minute performance during which they formed the Umea logo and the configuration of stars on the EU flag.
