Is there a way to update waypoints dynamically using a Linux onboard computer to the Pixhawk instead of using waypoints from the predefined flight plan?
MavProxy is an option but it does not allow python scripts to execute.

I have an Arducopter v2.6 on my quadcopter and am just starting to get it flying. Yesterday I took it to the park for the second time for some test flights. The flight went as follows:
are there some inherent differences between quad copters and hexacopters. What would make a designer choose 4 or 6 propellers? Is there a sweet spot for lift capacity with a quad vs the sweet spot for lift capacity of a hex? What is that sweet spot?
