Trying to be retired, been involved in serious treasure hunting for a number of years.
Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest
I want to put together a survey system that involves maybe a small quad-bike towing a trailer carrying electronic detectors.

"I'm impressed that you are down to around 1.5M, and I think what you are doing is great.
The gyro heading should be to within .5 of a degree? Are you happy that the GPS speed and distance derivation is accurate enough? I wondered about an optical or…"

"Thanks for the discussion links and input. I know that if we setup a high quality GPS station at the start point and have good enough software to calibrate the Bot GPS offset, we can be accurate to less than 4 inches over a course. I have seen it…"
"Congratulations Vijay. Very Impressive. Best of luck."
"A cheaper option may be set out a marked number of waypoints on your own test course and beg,borrow or steal an accurate D-GPS to mark your start and waypoints. Whatever your own setup for GPS, heading and hardware you can then test and tweak…"
"Hi,
Just some thoughts on reversing.
Driving Remotely by Camera - you would need to pan 180 to follow the reverse path and then steer the wheels in reverse mode.
Loss of GPS - on trails, canyons, in wooded country makes the use of the heading and…"

The Ardurover has a capability of being in the 'field' much longer than flight equivalent missions. What are the limits of waypoint numbers and grid size available? If there are limitations, can they be extended and is it a complicated fix?Thanks
"Hi Carlos, I'm new and was about to ask similar questions. I'm interested in amateur geophysical survey which needs GPS guidance to have lane discipline as required in harvesting together with constant speed over ground.
This needs a 'lane width'…"
