Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest

I built a 250 sized apm controlled automated drone and several 250 race drones and help others enjoy this great sport and hobby. We host hands on promotional flight where you can learn to fly a drone like the syma x5c and other small toy type uav's.

Have not really seen anything yet that really excited me till I heard about snapdragons flight controller. This, if it works and the price can be reasonable could be a game changer for the did builder.
