• Ilios HD Complete Kit

    Get the best equipment for your application with an affordable price. Begin building mechanically accurate and highly detailed objects in no time.

    The Ilios HD Kit was initially designed for mechanical applications, where precision and reliability matters the most. In its assembled form it can produce stunning results with the help from its highly accurate motion construction and electronics. The Ilios project utilizes the technique of Stereo-lithography or SLA as it is commonly known. The build uses photo reactive resin, which is cured when light is projected on it. The lifting platform, lifts each layer of the model and finalizes with a complete product at the end of the build. One of the benefits this technique has is the highly detailed result, which simply cannot be matched by machines that use plastic extrusion methods. Additionally there is a large selection of materials that can be used, which simulate results such as ABS, Rubber and many others, combined with a color mixture of your choice, in both Opaque and Translucent options.

  • FliteTest Interview

    FliteTest was kind enough to talk to Demetris (Creator of the OSRC System) about the features of the system and at the same time answer some of the questions that were gathered throughout the RC community. Chad and Josh talk about features such as RF Cloud, modularity of the whole system and why it was important to have these and many other unique features in a single project.

    Although the video does not fully explain all features, it gives a great opportunity to meet Demetris and get an overall idea about the history of the project and its future through the eyes of the creator.

    Feel free to browse through other videos on the OSRC YouTube channel to find out more about the system or head to the Forum with your own questions or suggestions.

    Don't forget to check out the OSRC Facebook site as well, where many news and daily updates take place while working on different features of the system. Post your comments there as well, like the site and contribute to the effort.



  • Detailed Description

    In this video the designer of the OSRC (Open Source Remote Control) system goes through all major features and talks about the benefits they hold. The video was mainly created to address most of the questions that gathered through the OSRC as well as other forums, comments on YouTube, E-mails and other social media.

    Although it was impossible to describe the entire system in a single video, most functions, hardware accessories and the over all details are described in this presentation, giving a more complete understanding of how the OSRC system works and why it is important.

    You can read more about specifications and features each module of the system has in the Products section of the website. For more videos don't hesitate to visit the OSRC YouTube channel.

FPVC Advanced

Share
One of the most powerful additions for OSRC, with unseen processing power for a Remote Control System.

Rapid technological evolution has gone a long way since the first processors. In today's devices related to almost all applications you will find processing capabilities far beyond what they were intended for. In FPVC Advanced case we have spared no resources and created an ultimate tool that hold inside abilities that in some cases even surpass modern computing devices.

The large LCD display provides a remarkable view of an advanced OSRC User Interface as well as Real Time video stream from your vehicle. Cockpit - like UI gives you the ability to monitor and control your vehicle just like a professional pilot would inside a real craft. Assignable switches, thumb-sticks and touch capabilities provide the user with a stunning control environment.

Given the power that FPVC Advanced holds, operations such as 3D Model simulations with control from the OSRC gimbals and buttons, give an opportunity to never need a Desktop computer as well as learn to fly with the same settings and hardware as the real thing. The ability to record FPV video directly from the model eliminates any need for additional hardware while giving the expandability of a microSD card for larger formats or other data. The same principles also apply for recording your own movements as well as recording motions from a remote operator.

By utilizing FPVC Advanced, the operator is given the opportunity to control, change and monitor the entire scope of a vehicle response without the need for a personal computer or other processing machine. The internal FPVC Advanced CPU provides more than enough power for any given mission and is completely customizable in sense of software as well as hardware. With the help of a large display and stunningly fast response of the user interface, break free from the painful pipeline currently available and solve all your needs with a single addition of an already feature packed device.

Key Features

Only mentioning the fact that FPVC Advanced uses Linux as its Operating system, immediately it becomes clear that the amount of possibilities related to the module is quite vast. While creating FPVC Advanced, many new and useful features emerged since never before an entire Linux system has been implemented in an RC control system as compact and as innovative as OSRC.

User Interface

Front ViewWith the help of a Large, Color display as well as its Touch sensor, the entire OSRC interface is reborn and unleashed from it's monochrome brother built into OSRC. Besides the already available features and functions found in OSRC, the FPVC Advanced interface unlocks just as many new ways to control your model. Since with the help of a powerful processor, there is no limiting criteria to what the interface might look like, we have designed everything from the ground up and reinvented OSRC by giving it versatile control over its functions. Many features were taken from known interfaces to produce a stunning result and at the same time keep the responsiveness as snappy and fast as possible.

Another great advantage in using a Linux Operating System is that with it, an entirely new path is revealed with already available software packages for applications such as GPS Tracking, 3D Simulations, Video Playback & Editing as well as many others from both the Open as well as commercial communities.

Communication

Due to the never seen before features we implemented in OSRC, terms such as Two Way Communication, PPM, Receiver/Transmitter, Model Count and others commonly used in the RC community, simply disappear after just a glance through the OSRC features. Both OSRC and FPVC units use many different communication techniques for short as well as long range applications. Among them the ability to transfer data through GSM networks provides the ability to control a model such as a UAV without the need for additional devices since all those devices are already built into the system.

From a developers point of view, the OSRC collection of hardware features provides a Dream Come True environment with a set of commonly used protocols as well as known hardware components. The GSM part of the FPVC Advanced unit is no different from a mobile phone and is produced from high quality parts which provide a reliable solution.

FPVC Side VideFeatures that already exist inside OSRC, such as Real Time motion recording from the on-board gimbals become even more user friendly when browsing through recorded collections on the large FPVC Advanced display. While working on the Linux aspect of the device, we have had enormous help from the development community that occupies this field, in order to bring the best result possible and squeeze every drop of potential from an already great product.

The intuitive interface provided with FPVC Advanced, gives any operator the freedom to quickly adopt to any scenario presented and easily produce great results. Operating from its own power source, the module in no way interferes with the OSRC power requirements and even in an event of complete power failure from the module, the OSRC system continues to operate flawlessly through its original user interface and set of features.

Given all of the above advantages as well as much more not described here, FPVC Advanced is a true marvel and a priceless addition to OSRC. May you be a professional or a hobbyist, the amount of freedom this module will provide, shall surpass all your expectations as well as release techniques or applications you may have been constrained not to use through already available alternatives.
