Well the software is not advancing at the speed I want.  However we're having great success with Multiwii.

I've dropped the price to reflect the lack of software.

Hi Erez,

i think that the big problem of your platform is the micro. The 328 is too small for the firmware need in program space , ram and pwm . Last year i used 644p that was twice of 328 in memory and had more mhz 20 instead of 16. The mega as apm is better choice for this kind of micro. But at the moment i decide to work only on MP32 Arm Cortex M4 is another class of micro :)

Best

Not necessarily.  The Arduino platform is very memory-intensive.   The current iteration of the Pipo SW takes less than 12kb. 

 

Anyway, the platform is designed to be a simple plug-&-play unit.  My guess is that those who want more functions will build their own system based on the ARMs.
