About Me:
Interests..Have a wild guess? LOL..... My main occupation is the Managing director of my Design and Manufacturing Company, (GAD Holdings Ltd) However, we do a lot of work with various militaries on UAV systems/ UAS and Airframes. However, the design of aircraft and subsystems is my passion (apart from my wife (if shes looking)) . I have designed a number of UAV`s that are presently being used by various governments, but now have done a couple for all us average 'Joes' if anyone is interested. FLIGHT IS LIFE!!! Autonomous Flight is the SOURCE!
Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest

"Hi Guys,
@ Harry, launching plate is 5mm Laser cut poplar ply, and although its heavy (by our standards) it floats off, so no issues. I think probably when 20Ah os on board and all the goodies, it might need a bungee as i dont realy wnat hands any…"

last flight was with 10Ah on board AUW of 9lb but the wing loading is still down at 16oz sqr foot, so shes still a floater!
Last night pics.

"HI Guys,
Brian, no problem, summet worth noting is that this is an interim version,i think teh V2.8 will have the 5 pos as Harry and i were talking, and the ability to script a flight, (not APM way, as i want to keep it with all present variables)…"

Which version of the WP writer are you using?
your home alt is wrong...
if you know that you are 500m above ASL, then your WP ALT should be set to 600
there is summt a…"

AP_2012_2_6_5_TS.zip
It will fly most normal configuration aircraft, btu you MUST check yoru servo directions.
Let me know your thoughts.

"Hi all,
I think, that in honest answer the AP / APM can do it, it is doable over a given time period (refueling, etc, the problem as gary correctly postulated is that its not legal.(CAP 722, CAP 658, CAP 652,,so forth and so on...)
We fly very long…"
