Flying without RC controller

Posted by Max Trenton on June 22, 2015 at 3:31pm

Hello All,

I´m new to the drone scene and am looking to fly an arduplane using auto mode only, and thus have not bought an RC controller. However, during the calibration phase in Mission Planner, it requires the radio to be calibrated ( I believe with the controller). I was wondering if you can simply skip this phase or do I have to get an RC controller. Is having a 3DR radio for the telemetry link enough?

I am currently using APM 2.6. 

Thanks in advance!

    I'm not sure it's possible with plane to fly with an RC.  You know a cheap RC is only $50~$70 so I'd highly recommend getting one.
