About Me:

Semi-retired systems engineer. Tinker with hardware and software. I have about 2 dozen Arduinos ranging micro to due, and compilers for every languages/OS known to man and a few known only to Vulcans. I'm a techie from the '70s. Cut my teeth on 8-bit micros before the word PC was even a dream. Seems we've come full circle. Assembler hasn't changed in 45 years.

Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest

Aerial survey. I come from the old school of Cessna Caravans packed with LIDAR and hyper-spectral recording systems and people. Looking now to mini (not micro) size operations to maybe a 1.5 to 2m fixed wing surveillance/monitoring/survey drone. Size is primarily due to anticipated payload and the desire to have it aloft for at least a few hours.
