Burke Mitchell commented on Chris Anderson's blog post Sony/3DR announce new Enterprise camera for Solo
"Has any one heard what the UMC-R10C specs are compared to the Qx1. The Qx1 does not have a hotshoe so I had to hack to the shutter motor to a small MCU"

I'm getting my hacked Qx1 to trigger a Emlid Reach GPS tracker but still notintegration the geo tag data"

I'm looking to change the output script of MP for the Solo. Specifically I'm looking to add a DO_CHANGE_SPEED command before every WAYPOINT command. This would save a lot of non useful flight time traversing between or to a waypoints when the…

Burke Mitchell replied to Burke Mitchell's discussion What/Where drivers for Mission Planner w Solo? Cannot connect - new issue
"UPDATE. It's a Mission Planner issue. Everything works on other machines but not my laptop. I also have this issue when I try to Export to geo tagger. I though something was messing up in the logs however the same tlog will output on another…"

I've been using MP for some time and familiar with connection issues behind the firewall. I have new issue  that will not let me connect to the aircraft. Originally I thought is was the Solo updates but now believe it is a issue on my laptop. I can…

Burke Mitchell replied to Peter M's discussion 3DR Solo for mapping/ survey/ precision ag
"I hear you Peter. I'm coming to the same conclusion and will be adding another bird real quick. What platform have you gone to? Why?. I'm so close to buying another solo to add a Qx1 w 2 ax gimbal. The solo would be nice for the purpose of having a…"

Burke Mitchell replied to C's discussion Can this be done? in Agricultural UAVs
"If you stuck on using video you could use 1 out of 20 frames or something like that. First try something. Look at one frame of your video and do you have the clarity that you can get from a still? As others have stated it is more processing because…"

Burke Mitchell replied to Pauli Isoaho's discussion Solo battery, what is inside? in 3DR SOLO
"I have read and copied here " the "Charger" we get with the solo is merely a 16.8v DC 3.3A Power supply. Each battery contains the charger and balancer for each cell. This is probably why it takes FOREVER to charge."

I've just ordered a four port…"

Burke Mitchell replied to Chip Luck's discussion My Solo Crashed - HARD = Always keep an eye on that battery level, period! in 3DR SOLO
"25 TO 30% is a good time to head back. I almost had the same thing happen to me. Logic shows windy days will suck that last 30% in no time. The calm days are more predicable. Hope you get your SOLO back soon. "

Burke Mitchell commented on Toby Mills's blog post 3dr Solo Review from a Long Time DIYer
"Agreed Justin,
I'm interested if there is a way I can trigger 3 different cameras at the same time using MP. I'm currently using a GP4 and two MAPIR camera for AG scanning. This would not only sync the camera but also get rid of all the extra photos…"
