Hi, I am planning to upgrade my Ardupilot to have telemetry, was wondering if it is possible to then edit and move or even add waypoints midflight? I am using it on an RC boat, so some glitching while it updates is ok, is this possible?
UPDATE: The plans are now available here: http://www.buildafoamie.com/products.html
We're working on a UAV platform. You can see our progress here.
We'd love any feedback anyone has.. This is just a prototype, but we'd like to eventually add a camera,
We are planning on using a 1.3ghz video transmitter 1.5 watt and an 900mhz xbee pro 100mw and spektrum 2.4ghz receiver. Both onboard transmitters and receiver would be close (within 3 inches). Would there potentially be interference problems with th

Dear community:
Does anybody have experience using a UAV mapping Earth’s magnetic field with a 3axis magnetometer? Are there any sources of information suitable for beginnersin this?
I would like to experiment with some magnetic mapping of Earth’s mag

Hello. I am really interested in building a quad-copter and have not had much luck on plans or kits to build. I see Mikro koptor and the dragon fly with very little info. I love the planes but have an interest in tighter urban areas. I did read someo
Hey guys,
I need some advice from experienced builders. I'm building around a 20 lb plane about 8 ft wing span and was looking at an engine 1.6 cu in and wondering if it is big enough for the plane. here is a link with more specs.

Just wondering how many actual pilots we have. I noticed some folks are experiencing performance problems (tip stalls, spins etc). I remember an article by the AMA (years ago) about applying real piloting skills to r/c (coordinated turns, air

I want to start with the ArduIMU+ V2 (Flat) as AutoPilot for my kerosine powered Jet.
It's fast about 180,2 mph ;-)
Would be nice if someone could supporting me to choose all the needed parts for a full functioning AutoPilot.
Thanks for help!

I've done a lot of AVR Programming over the years, but always did it via parallel. Will the Ardupilot let me do that, or is the software specific to the USB FTDI cable?
Thanks in advance,

i was thinking... knowing the hardware having its memory limits i wonder if its able to have a loader so that way it could have more memory. I was thinking of creating a loader that would pull info from a usb thumb drive that only weighs a cupple oz
