Chris Whiteford replied to Bob Wilkinson's discussion 3DR-B APM2 quad"I too am looking for a good mount for the GoPro. I have the same setup as you (well with a few more doo-dads), but I want to stabilize the GoPro in a nice simple way.

Chris Whiteford replied to Randy's discussion ArduCopter 2.5 released!"I was fortunate enough that I had seen that this new GPS was coming and was able to cancel my original order with the integrated GPS unit and re-order the APM2 without it.
But I suspect that the upgrade path will be having to get the other…"

I have just reciently been enjoying flying my quad (with a home built frame), and in the process of flying (rather replace flying with crashing), my frame is no longer flight worthy.

Just remember, make sure you don't have the motors powered up (or…"
Chris Whiteford commented on jasonshort's blog post Arducopter 2.0 Beta first release!"@Chris Anderson
MAVLink is the default GCS protocol, but it looks like it defaults to Port 1.

Chris Whiteford commented on Max Levine's blog post ArduCopter Alpha & GoPro HD"@Dan: The title of the post says its a GoPro HD.

Chris Whiteford commented on Chris Anderson's blog post New GPS module--Tiny 10Hz Mediatek unit (just $38.95!)"Ouch. I just ordered the adapter board and the GPS separately yesterday for more then the pair costs now. :-(
That sucks.
