About Me:

I am a Telecommunications engineer in the Hellenic Air Force (military personnel) and a passionate model airplane builder for the past decade or more...


Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest

My main interest is FPV, but when I saw the specific capability of an Autopilot to save my plane and/or people and properties below that, I was thrilled and knew right then that Auto is the way to go in wireless model aircraft imaging, telemetry and other systems...
