"Great groundstation.
Mind passing on any information about what lvds controller board you used?"

"I'm working on a project like this. I first bought the kit from Hobby King (a ripoff of Bob's Eco Goggles).. Check out the hmd thread at fpvlabs. I wear glasses and don't do stereo easily, so I needed something different. First I built this out…"
"I'd ditch the loom. I found with my pixhawk hard plastic loom rattled against the case and caused vibrations. I ran some electrical tape around the body to tape it flat - so it wouldn't hit the pixhawk. Now my vib's are sub -10 for z and ~ 3-5 for…"
"I had to power the pixhawk by more than just the usb"
"Seconded. The only reason I could see for not selling it would be if it were a trade secret. But then you most likely wouldn't see 3M on it."
"Tried them on my Pixhawk 3.2 discovery with 10.5 RCtimer carbon props - 3 s 2200 and 750kv TBS motors. Flew great. Thanks."
"And I am waiting for my rma on mine. Hopefully the quality control is a bit better on the next one."
"I've found gstreamer to be quite flakey on my pc under windows. Looking at a ground station that is linux only - linux runs apm with mono apparently - so will load up 12.04 on a nuc I have that a client didn't like. I'll let you know how it goes."
"Best speeds from me so far.
More to follow.
Prepare Pi. I used wheezy.

"I think I'll look into ser2net and remtty. Just found socat. http://www.raspberrypi.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?t=44896&p=356396 - used for video here but could also just mirror the serial output. I'll run some tests with htop. Philip - when…"
"For those wondering what's inside a nano 900 I took one apart - http://imgur.com/Ddz3Z3S,2pbJNfp#0 Not that big for a guestimated 12 km range (HD).. Make some attenuators for the two internal antenna ports - and add the aforementioned circular…"
"I am thinking along the same lines as Christiaan. I have a couple of 900 loco's that are just sitting around. I will try to determine how heavy it will be if I strip the chassis and set it up to use some of IBcrazy's 900 mhz circular polarized (has…"
