"Hi Roman, I been flying a Bixler 1 with APM 1 for around a year now with a 5000mah battery and a GroPro camera on board. With gentle flight plan I,m pushing 1 hour of flight time. The Bixler handles the weight easily cruising at around 15m/s If you…"

"Interesting, thanks. Weird that this flight mode is not listed in any ArduPlane docs or on the wiki. Guess I'll just have to play with it once I have the APM setup."

"Hi Greg, thanks for the info but there has got to be an easier way to do this without building a tracker module. I figure if I can plug a gps into the GS laptop and already have lets say a 3dr radio for telemetry it should be pretty easy to update…"

"Thanks Richard, just to clarify your point about tracking the current position. Does this work with a moving ground station as well ? Thanks, Roman"

"Hi Roman, I am going to try a similar thing myself using my bixler and apm2. I have a dozen or so successful ardupilot flights on apm. There is a feature where you can press ctrl + f which sends the plane into guided mode and will track your…"
