Hey,I was just wondering what level of maH I am going to need my LiPO to be at in order to power the FMA Co-Pilot, 4 servos, Ardupilot, motor and GPS for about 30 mins? will 3200maH, 11.1V do me?Thanks a lot,James
Hi,I need to be able to stream video from my UAV over a distance of a few kilometers. it does not necessarily have to be good qaulity but enough to be able to accurately see where I am flying.What cameras/receivers/transmitters would do this for me?…
"Another question,
Does anyone know the laws that apply to model UAV's in Australia. I have been searching for a while and ll i can find are the laws that apply in America.
Thanks a lot,
James"

"Hi,
I have been reading a lot and think I am getting to grips with what is going on inside a UAV now. My first of most likely many questions to come is how does xbee wire up inside the UAV and at the ground station? Which xbee parts/modules are…"

"I think a custom build PC is the way to go. I got my beast for AU$2500 from www.msy.com.au I am sure there are shops like this in Belgium. It is the cheapest way of getting yourself a good computer. BTW the prices listed was with EVERYTHING Screen,…"
"Hey,
I have been looking around for a suitable plane for the UAV and come accross this: http://www.modelflight.com.au/rc_model_electric_planes/park_flyer_s.... I don't want to spend much more than this price on the plane and have all the radio…"

"Hey,
Its probably best that before going and build a UAV Helicopter you go out and get yourself a small electric helicopter (Thunder Tiger Mini Titan or something along those lines) and learn to fly that first. Then progress to something more…"

Hey,I have never attempted a UAV before (I just fly helis) but have been on these forums a bit looking at the amazing stuff that you all do and now I have finally got around to wanting to build one for myself (most likely a plane) and am wondering…
"Hi,
i really don't know anything about all this automatic UAV stuff at all, just the mechanics/electronics systems of an aircraft but as Chris said a GPS module that is rigged up to only go to a certain height is the best option."

"Hey,
I know there is a way to set up throttle hold at whatever throttle you are at when you flick the switch but am not sure. Neither am I sure that's what you want but its a good start. I gues to stay in one place you could put some gyros rigged…"

"Hi,
I fly RC Helicopters at a club every weekend and we all pretty much use 2.4GHz radios (predominantly Spektrum DX7's) and have never had a problem with frequency interference. There can be up to six people all flying at the same time and no one…"
