n00b but coder

Total n00b. I just got my first walkera runner 250  (actual 2nd, first ended up running away from me on maiden voyage and ended up in the next zip code)

But now I am trying to get into the guts of the thing, and I am a little more than the monkey with the lightbulb.

Oh, I only use Linux

#1 How do you connect to the USB interface?
I tried minicom /dev/USB0 (the active port), tried to 9600 and 11500 baud and verious xon/xoff but could not get a serial connection

#2 part a. Is there a Linux gui to system? I saw a disk with windows files but thats not going to help me to much.

part b. I found the Android apps, but none sync with my drone.  I am pretty sure they run across 802.1x but I have found no 802.1x radio on the runner 250.
Whats the trick there?

#3 Does the device have a developer API?

#4 are there any Linux tools I should know of?
