New Project "Ascension"

From my last post on Zynq development board comparisons, to which I chose the Zybo, I have taken my first step towards a new project, finally.

The new project will be called "Ascension" and I will start adding posts about it and opening up a GIT spot in the coming weeks.

The new project is to design and build a custom quadcopter drone, hence "Ascension". I know I know, it's been done many times before, but I have a few ideas on some improvements and a couple of ideas I want to try out, plus it will be fun. I will post more about the project as I get a chance to work on it.

I am in the early days of the project and I have some research and tech development to do before I can start the main design. Now that I have a platform, Zybo, I can really start "doing" work along side more research. I actually built a test bench for drone motors and the Zybo last weekend and I will post about that soon, here's a pic until then.
