Dear all:I am trying to run Mission Planner on my Macbook with Parallels. I am able to connect Mission Planner on Macbook and Pixhawk via USB cable with Com3 port and baud 9600. When I tried 3DR 915 radios, Mission Planner showed the radio device…
Hi I like to share a CHDK script, which combines both triggered by usb signal and by intervalometer.The most popular script for UAV photomapping is probably KAP_UAV.lua that is certainly very useful. However, it is somewhat too much for works that…
"I worked around taking off from a boat by arming my quadcopter on land, and keep the battery connected (it will soon disarm if not touching the throttle stick), then departure on boat. When I reach the site I want, re-arm the quadcopter. I did not…"
"Hi Shawn:
thank you for this thread. I am also looking something with better resolution to replace my S100. My question, how do you get GPS info with RX100?"

Just saw this drone protector on the site. https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/anti-collision-for-drones--2#/It's similar to protection covers of many mini indoor quadcopters but also provide protection from hitting the ceiling, and appears to be…
Hello, I have used Canon S100 as photomapping camera. But since it's discontinued, it's getting more difficult to find it on the market. I am looking for replacement in case I lose my S100 again (crash happens!), and find that Nikon P330 is…
"I wonder why APM:Copter does not support Y6 with one arm forward and 2 arm backward like a reverse Y. Such configuration may result in less drag than Y."
"You can download an e-book "Secrets of UAV photomapping". I've found it very helpful.

"Yes, you can. Out of the range of telemetry is not a problem. Out of the range of receiver could be a problem. But you can still do it.
With AC 3.1, there are 2 ways to continue the mission out of the receiver's range. Each has its risk.
1, you…"

"Agree! The advantage of quadcopter in photomapping is not just easy to take off and landing. The position and altitude precision is usually only +-2m or even better in good weather, much better than fixed-wings."
"6x6cm is already bigger than those with 5 and 12v. But off course they likely do not support 240amp."
"It would be nice to have a 5v and a 12v output."
"This is not going to be efficient. I think 8 motors should be reliable enough."

"Across+1. Along overlap can be controled by camera intervalometer. You probably have seen people place the camera in along orientation in skywalker 1990. But that's because the fuselage is not wide enough to do it the other way."
"What a beauty! Oh, I mean the quad of course."
