Does anyone know; Is the APM misison planner available (in whatever form) for a mac?
How awesome would it be if there was an ipad app (and interface for telemetry) made for it... talk about a great solution for the field. If I had the programming skeelz....I'd do it. But I can barely tie my shoes.

In the Iris Manual it states that there is a APM:Planner that is a .dmg install file. It directs you to the APM downloads area and says to download it for Mac. Must not be available yet because it is not on the site yet.
I was looking through the Mission Planner change log today and I see two references to the "Mac version." I haven't heard of a Mac version. Has one been released I'm not aware of? I'm not seeing it in the download section.
I'd LOVE a Mac version.
Hello,
can you help me to connect virtual box XP running on osx , my USB recognizes the arduino hardware, but i cant connect the COM4 port that mission planner needs ,
i have tryied many different configurations with no success.
thanks
Lion, VMware Fusion and XP works great with MP. Much better than Paralells or any combination with W7
What you are lookign for is the QGroundControl application for MacOSX. It is a full mission planner and MAVLINK GCS. However, it does not "flash" firmware for you, for that you need MP or you can use the Arduino IDE or command line (avrdude) on the Mac.
Hello,
I'm a Mac User. I had a poor experience with Mission planner on my Lion/VMware/Windows 7 setup. I had a lot of writing/ verifying errors when working the APM Firmware.
I had better results with an Atom card in an old PC box at home but no way to have it at the flying site. So I purchased a 10" portable Atom PC at a bargain price and I use it for that purpose.
