Progress update 21/08/2012
The quadcopter project has been continued during the summer. While doing so, some of the original goals have been revised. Following is a list of deliverables we expect to achieve by the end of the summer:
 * Stable flight. The local control will be running on the onboard procceing board. The control algorithm will be able to let the quadcopter hover in more or less the same position.
 * Lidar. We will be able to use our home build lidar system to measure distance.
 * Reporting/presenting.

The following goals have been postponed:
 * SLAM / mapping. Using the Lidar in order to map the environment.
 * Global control. Using the created map in order to navigate a space autonomously.
