Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest

I like programming the UAV more than actually flying it.

Daniel Nugent commented on Charles Blouin's blog post The Otus Tracker by RCbenchmark: a more affordable motion-capture system for drone development.
"Cool idea, but the price is too high for this community. You're selling like $50 dollars of components for $1000."
