"v1 of ardupilot is navigation only and should work with an RC car"
"Great news for us Brits"
I wondered if it might make sense to support both text (as it does now) and a "raw" TX method for the ArduPilot. With the "raw" mode you could save a few (possibly a lot as a %) bytes per transmission which could mean a faster rate of messages and…
""UAV support group" sounds like somewhere that down and out UAVs go to get help ;)
On a serious note it's good to see the community spirit."

"Hi Andre,
As far as I understand the Ardupilot v1 code should adapt well to this.

I wondered if anyone had tried hacking a cheap bluetooth GPS receiver? There's no lack of them on eBay and with a bit of tinkering it should be possible to disable the bluetooth portion (in case of 2.4GHz interference) and find some kind of serial…
"Hi Tom,
$60 sounds like a steal, it'd be good to hear how it performs.
Antennas work best when their length is matched to the frequency they're working on (transmitters tend to be more sensitive . Doing some quick calculations for 2.4GHz shows…"

"Am I right in saying 10hPa is ~200 feet?"

"Looks great Jordi.
I can see the code for reading waypoint data from the EEPROM. Is there any code for writing the waypoint data into the EEPROM?"

"Great write-up.
Can I suggest:
step 1.1 remove battery
step 1.2 wait 1 hour
I'm guessing an hour would be enough time for the flash capacitor to discharge?
To be honest I would do:
step 1.1 remove battery
step 1.2 get impatient after 10 mins"

"Chris,
It shouldn't be hard to get the two working together happily.
I'll have a look at how it behaves with the Arduino IDE tonight and drop you a private message with details.

"Hi Jordi,
It's great to see some documentation on the project. I think it might be difficult for you guys to decide what level the documentation should be made at. Lots of the ardupilot followers/users are very technically capable but now you have…"
