In this video, you will learn how you can use the MPU6050 accelerometer to measure angles.
The purpose of this video series is to learn the basics behind a quadcopter drone and enable you to build one yourself, by dividing this challenging project in several easy-to-understand parts. You use the capable Teensy 4.0 microcontroller together with the easy-to-use Arduino language. - Наука та технологія
This was so informative - you are genuinely great at explaining things!
This was the best explanation of how to implement the data sheet information into code I have ever seen. Simple and clear instructions. Thank you.
Superbly presented, you spend a lot of time making the design easy to understand. Thanks for all your efforts and then sharing it here, it has made a big difference for my project.
I was stuck with this thing. Thank you very much for helping in this.
Great sir, thanks a lot for explaining everything simply ❤️
This is a great video for explaining this sensor. Subscribed and Liked your video. Thank you.
well done bro , keep the hard working
Thanks a lot man, you are a legend
Thank you very much!
I have a question for you, if one decided to use merely the angular accelerations from the sensor and estimating the angle using numerical integration.
If instead of using the rectangle numerical method (the one you showed in the video), one uses a more complex but more reliable numerical method, do you thing the drifting of the error would slow down?, and also, do you think that changing the sample frequency of the data acquisition from the sensor (and the Arduino) can improve the results?
Cool video shot, thanks for sharing, keep it up :)
Thank you so much really helpful!!😇
Can you explain how you are able to use this measerments while quadocopter is moving in space. Because movement will lead to incorrect angle measures(It can show that quadocopter has non-zero pitch and/or roll while just accelerating in some direction)
Good information...
I want to ask, base on that equation wouldn't the tan(angle) of roll change if it starts accelerating in the x axis. Thanks
I should add that I was always impressed by the quality of my Belgian engineer coworkers.
Thanks so much !
because of you i will pass exams :D
hey, it seems the YAW angle computation based on Accelerometer propery isn't working, i mean after i got the value of AccZ who is equal 1, the Angle based on trigonometry should be : atan(AccelZ / sqrt(pow(AccelX , 2) + pow(AccelY , 2))) /(PI/180);
Further on pitch/roll reversed: This obviously depends on orientation. I have implemented on a breadboard style veroboard so the Y-axis is in the forward direction, hence Y is roll and X is pitch.
On AccZ at 1.6g: I bought a batch of 3 cheap mpu6060 boards (GY-521). The other 2 all give AccZ within 0.06 of 1g. I am a little suspicious of the 0.6 variation. I shall keep digging.
When will be the next video and do you have any other videos that fully explain a kalman filter, this video was extremely helpful and for the first time i understood why simply using acceleration cannot work in a system that is constantly changing acceleration
Yes next video will include a full mathematical derivation of a one dimensional Kalman filter, in which we will use the gyroscope to predict the angle and the accelerometer to correct the prediction. I hope to finish it by the end of this week!
yoo this series is exactly what I was looking for thank you so much! underrated channel. One thing I don't understand is that if there is an acceleration happening that is not equal to 1g then wouldnt that make the accelerometer readings invalid for using for calculating final angle?
Thanks! If accX for example is 10g and accY and accZ are ≈ 0g, the result will be exactly the same as when accX is exactly equal to 1g. You can calculate this example through: pitch angle=atan(accX/sqrt(accY^2+accZ^2))=atan(1/(≈0))=atan(10/(≈0))=90°.
@@carbonaeronautics Makes sense, thank you
On trying this example I seem to have pitch and roll reversed. (MPU6050 in same orientation as example.) Also AccZ was 1.6 by default, had to correct by 0.6, however AccX and AccY similar to example.

How did u specify which SDA and SCL pin is used?
Hii Where did u find that Ts=0.004 i.e for 250Hz cycle .how did we select that
From where we get the rotation Rate, is it from the Gyroscope ? 🤔and From where the blue signal of the gyro at the End get from ?.
Why don't use the dmp to get fused data ?
Informative tutorial it is! Not sure if any custom PCBs/ 3D printing parts may help for any upcoming content? If so, would love to supply freely, if possible, will be cool if any collabs could be achieved together! (PCBWay zoey)
how to read pan or yaw angle?
Hi , I want to know why 5:17 theta roll in the middle is equal to others , can someone explain, thanks .
great idea sir, may I ask how to get the yaw angle from this? thank you very much!
I like to know this to
@@henksteenfrits3290 and Angilyn you can't get it using the accellerometer. You need to integrate the gyroscope.
The accelerometer angle measurements will work only when the device is stationary. Whenever you try to move, you will lose angle precision.
Did you watch the video to the end?
we use it just for making attitude alignment
How do we adjust the Sample rate?
I dont know if you will reply this, but i am using your code in a RC plane. Using this to know if im upside or downside. When you turn the sensor downside stills having 0 roll angle. did you know this "bug"? Its just for notice you, i am trying to solve it. (apologizes me for my english).
I also use this library, but the z-axis value increases little by little. It has a little drift, help me please
What about to use Kalman filter to eliminate vibrations?
Exactly, its covered in part 15!
Great lecture!!! Can you give me the material for this subject? In Vietnam it is very difficult to find documents like yours. Thanks Teacher.
Sure, it will be published on GitHub with the other parts (currently published up to part 13): github.com/CarbonAeronautics/Manual-Quadcopter-Drone
@@carbonaeronautics Thank you Teacher!!!
Could you please help me to find (ADXL335, HMC5883L, Tilt sensor) libraries for proteus
What about the yaw angle? Slow Rotate horizontal Problem while the drone is still?
i hve the same question, did you found any answer?
What is the Project 4?? Can you please tell me?
Hello, your Z axis is pointing to up but you have 1g ? You're not supposed to have -1g because gravity acceleration is pointing down ?
Yes, gravity accelerates the module downwards (-1g). So, in order to keep its horizontal position, it has to be accelerated upwards by the surface it is mounted on (+1g). Therefore, the net acceleration equals -1g + 1g = 0g
Hi, I have a question : why are you choosen 8g for the accelerometer value ? Why not 2,4 or 16g ? Thanks
2 or 4g would be too coarse for control purposes, but you could try 16g if your application requires a very precise value
i can't find the full code on github please someone help
8:26 it is better to use atan2 instead of atan.
can anyone please explain the formula derivation for pitch and roll angle if someone can please point me to relevant resources that would be very helpfull i literally asked everyone my professors and spend a lot of time please help
Hi , can you send me the code of this video ?
i read it and now i don't remember me who i'm! @.@
hey carbon how can i contact you? discord or smthng
??
You can open an issue on my Github page and I will have a look at it!
