Hi allafter watching the wired science show and noticing the guy(sorry I have forgotten his name) with the r/c helicopter I was wondering if he has had any success in turning it into a UAV.The reason I ask is that I am about to buy an electric helicopter plus the spartan rc as2000i flight stabilstion box and as I have the rest off the kit ie autopilot etc lying around I wouldn't mind giving it a go.Im Just looking for any comments or suggestions or the mocking to start.thanks

He goes by the name of Jack Crossfire here and on RCGroups. He's doing daily updates on the project on RCGroups and for geeks like me they are absolutely fascinating. Highly recommended. You can find them all here.
Short answer: he's still wrestling with software and hardware, but it certainly has accomplished autonomous position hold and hover.
