Looks like the mugin platform.v tail version.

Nice detailed checklist. A proper checklist would have save my plane this past saturday. I checked it all "in the brain" and not on paper. Overlooking the step where you lift the tail and roll the plan to validate arduplane is countering correctly. I flipped the switch and dove into the dirt. Now I have a list.

Oooh... nice to see Tridge and his team in action! =)
Good look for you all! Go APM go go!

That's a big plane! Is there a camera gimbal that goes on the bottom in front of the bottle? Don't show the competition your equipment.

I'm sure team Canberra will win this one!

Good luck Tridge!

@Greg,

We don't have a gimbal yet - for now we point the camera straight down. We may add a gimbal later based on test results though.

We don't mind the other teams seeing our equipment - we decided early on to be a completely open team.

Cheers, Tridge

The credits on the video say "Paul Tridgell", I'm confused.

Developer Comment by Andrew Tridgell on April 24, 2012 at 5:33am

@dydx,

Paul is my brother, and he has been kind enough to sponsor the team, so his name is in the sponsors list.

Cheers, Tridge

 Great setup. I have been looking for spacious frame like this myself. Is this a custom frame or I can buy it as a kit somewhere?

Thanks

I'm doing the SUAS competition in the states, and I was wondering how your team changed the failsafe action for Arduplane.  We have to do something similar for our competition.
