Hi

I am new to Ardupilot but using Arducopter for last few months.

I am interested in making a plane like Mugin but in the meanwhile I want to buy something like what

this website www.event38.com have for GIS. Problem is that they have no actual verifiable address and contact no and in the first glance it looks like a fly by night operation. These are harsh words but this is what the first impression one would get if want to spend $2000 and you have no idea where this money is going.

 

would like to have some inputs if some one have about this company and worthiness of the planes.

They claim 16 Kms range for telemetry but it looks difficult for the size of plane where payload is limited and weight of antenna and amp and current would make it extremely difficult to fly.

 

regards

Bhanu

    Hi Bhanu!

    Jeff Taylor is founder of Event38.com, which arises from the 3DR, where he was part of the team of engineers of few products, as the Ardupilot.
    I've bought things from company and I can guarantee that this is serious business and reliable.

    Currently, Jeff lives in Santiago, Chile, where he was riding a startup company, a project of the Chilean government to bring technology companies, see here.

    In fact, in two or three weeks I will be meet him at Chile.

    Best regards!
