General Information Ετικέτα http://os-rc.com/el/osrcblog/latest Tue, 19 Mar 2024 07:20:34 +0000 Joomla! - Open Source Content Management el-gr OSRC Development & Manufacturing http://os-rc.com/el/osrcblog/entry/osrc-development-manufacturing http://os-rc.com/el/osrcblog/entry/osrc-development-manufacturing The new site is up along with a new look for the project. Instead of constantly replying to E-mails, different forum posts and general requests all over the internet, i decided to maintain this blog and keep it updated as i work, while finishing the production and development stages for the entire system.

Some Background

For those who haven't been following the project from its initial release, i would like to say that the project and its development has gone through rough times with ups and downs since all development was done by me and it took lots of time even working full time on the project. Initially there was an IndieGoGo campaign as an attempt to gather resources to build the first prototypes. This was when i still worked on client projects parallel to my own ideas. During this period a very enthusiastic and generous organization found me and supported the prototyping stages (Details can be found in the About section of the site). If you are not familiar with the project then please read the About article before continuing.

Once the prototypes were built and tested, i made an attempt to collect the required funding to produce at least 1000 units which took almost 6 months and was unsuccessful due to the large sum. Since going with the Mass Production route didn't work out, i took some time to rethink the whole strategy, rebuilt the OSRC site to host the OSRC community, its files and blogs.

Which configuration suits you best http://os-rc.com/el/osrcblog/entry/which-configuration-suits-you-best http://os-rc.com/el/osrcblog/entry/which-configuration-suits-you-best what-suits-you.jpgDue to the modular nature of OSRC, the possibilities while combining different modules, become endless. Each module has its purpose and can add features related to many different fields. Sometimes the operator may need additional switches, other times additional data may be required. If just flying for pleasure, an advanced computing unit with a color display may not be needed, while flying with an FPV setup, the additional control of a camera or Real-Time video preview can be achieved. You may already have a set of traditional receiver units which are integrated into your model and just need a reliable control unit to go with it, adding all the great advantages that OSRC can offer. In all cases, the user can change one module for another, maintaining the ability to cover all possible scenarios and at the same time build a rich collection of hardware upgrades for the OSRC control system. Below you can see different applications in which each module can help the operator.
