Unfortunately, yes. Google Earth's Javascript API does not allow for loading cached files. The old (and now unsupported) Google Earth API for their GE client did allow for caching. But I do not believe it works in GE 6.0...but I could be wrong.

Have you thought of using something like the CloudMade or Mapnik API instead of google? they are only flatmaps but I believe both support tile caching.

I have. There is also a project called "Great Maps" which does caching.... but I have not had time to implement it.

do you think if i used my droid x telephone as a hotspot for my laptop at 3G, the bandwidth would be sufficient?

thanks

Yes. I believe what's actually happening is the "license key" for the Javascript API is timing out...there is actually a cache, but it needs the internet connection to "validate" the license key, which is stupid as using the API is free....so I have no clue what Google's plans are.

 

What should happen, is it should validate on start and then load the cache if the internet connection can't keep up.

Hi, I'm very interested in generic Mavlink support by Happykillmore GCS. It is there by a large extent, but some commands do not match, like uav modes.

For example, mavlink protocol has 4 testing modes for MAV_MODE and I'm using 2 of them in order to switch on and switch off simulation mode in my autopilot, but HK GCS does not show them. I understand that Mavlink support in HK GCS is very tied to what APM supports, so I'm wondering, are there plans to make also "generic" Mavlink support available?

 

thanks,

Andrus

There are 3 things that seem to be specific to each MAVlink implementation. Flight commands, flight modes and parameters. Right now, I have 3 text files that I'm using internally to spell out each of these 3 functions. Parameters isn't really required, but I decided to add min, max, default and description to each parameter to make life easier on the end user.

 

So you've got 2 options. 1) Conform to what APM's using for these values 2) Let me know what autopilot you're using and I can help you get it added to my GCS.

Hi!

I am looking for a tool to convert the raw data in the *.hko into something like shown in the "Translated Data" window. Or is there a way to save data from this window?

Sorry if it sounds stupid but i didn't find anything useful.

Thanks
Fabian

There currently isn't a way, but I could add one. What would you use it for?

Thanks for the fast reply!

 

I want to do some analysis with MatLab afterwards e.g..

Can't Matlab parse binary data?
