Hello
I read on one of your posts that you control your rc plane using xbee, I’m trying to do the same thing can you help? My plain is to ether update the ardupilots gps co-ordinates while in flight or to be able to take control of it like an rc plane from my laptop. If you can help at all it would be really appreciated
Many Thanks

I'm studying at Aberdeen uni in Scotland. I'm not using any hardware at the mo I’m really just starting off. I use to make ROV's but they used Bluetooth. I always thought that a UAV would be too hard to make until about 5 months ago when I discovered this site. I'm building the plane in the pic at the moment because it’s a really stable platform then moving up to faster platforms if all go’s well. Any help that you can give me would be very much appreciated.
sorry about the late reply

"Jason, I think your idea is theoreticaly very interesting. I have little idea of how it would work in practice, but a few considerations; - as I understand it, the 406 GPS has a 1Hz update freq. If the plane is moving 10 m/s there will be somewhere…"
