(baby steps towards) an open firmware for the BLH7601 quadcopter board

This project contains source code that runs on the BLH7601 quadcopter board that is a part of the Blade Nano QX quadcopter.

In its present form, this source code does not allow you to fly a quadcopter—it only communicates with the radio and gyro chips on the board and prints the decoded messages on a serial port. However, since I've now communicated with both of the "interesting" chips on the board, it is time to release some source code.

A slightly modified version of libopencm3 is presently required to work around some quirks.

Information on my progress can be found on my serial dabbler blog. As flashing this code into your BLH7601 essentially bricks it (you can no longer use it to fly your quadcopter), I do not provide any specific instructions on how to do so at this time.

Development status

The author (@jepler) is not actively using or developing this project. Issues and pull requests are not likely to be acted on. I would be interested in passing this project to a new maintainer.
