WiFly shield compatibility

Hello ! :smiley:

For our diploma thesis we are going to build a Quadrocopter, controlled by WLAN.

We would like to do this with an Arduino board and a WiFi Shield, however, possibly we are going to use the [32-bit chipKIT for Arduino instead of the common Arduino Uno. The chipKIT-Developers mention that their kit is compatible with many Arduino shields.

Did somebody already hear about chipKIT or do you know if the [WiFly shield would be compatible with chipKIT?

i need to do the same, do you have any advance?

Hi!

We couldn’t find much more information to the chipKit, so we moved on to another development platform, the [.NET micro framework. We are going to develop our project with a [FEZ Panda II board.

However, we are still searching for a suitable WLAN module.

I posted another request to this topic on this forum: http://forums.leaflabs.com/topic.php?id … #post-8032

There are a couple of WLAN modules out there, which would be compatible to any board. You should look for a WLAN module which do most of the TCP/UDP and lower layers for you. Just check out the [WLAN modules from SparkFun.](WiFi - SparkFun Electronics)](http://www.ghielectronics.com/catalog/product/256)](http://www.netmf.com/gadgeteer/)
