"Sorry about the delay, it's taking longer than the original post suggested to finish development of the app for two reasons, one is that adding the final features is taking longer than expected, but there are also some business related happenings…"
"Interesting point, I had assumed they had approval as they are from a reputable manufacturer making a quality product.
I'm in Australia (as are rfdesigns) so they would need different approvals here. I just had a look at my RFD900s, and they don't…"

"A high quality alternative is http://store.rfdesign.com.au/rfd-900p-modem/
These may be overkill as they are ultra long range, but use the same firmware and are fully compatible with the 3DR radios.
Now that 3DR have stopped making 3DR radios, it's…"

"I meant Reuben, but good to hear your experiences, too :-).
I'll have to give the DYS models a go. QC is terrible on most ESCs so it's something I deliberately look for now. Try pulling the heatshrink off the bullet connectors on a random ESC. In…"

"Good comments so far. I agree with Bill Bonney further back that most GCSs are too monolithic. Most of the time you need tuning when setting up a new drone, but after that good mission control and setup is more important. Log analysis may be a third…"
"Have you had much experience with these?
I've had one 30A afro catch fire while on the ground (running off a 3s, throttle in neutral) and two others produce stuttering at high throttle settings. The stuttering turned out to be due to poor solder…"

"Wow, you continue to outdo yourself, Laser Developer. Anyone know if there are any import restrictions bringing these into Australia? I'm guessing not if Tridge has one."
"Nicely done! Another feature packed release."
"Sad to see you go, Rob. I always thought you were a very balanced voice on these forums.
I know what you mean about the moonlighting thing, I'm going through the same now and it takes a heavy toll on life and family."

"Great work, I'm really loving the Solo platform. "
"Nice looking plane! Parrot have an open sdk for beebop, hopefully it makes it to this plane at some point.
Shame about the fixed camera angle, makes it hard to use for survey work, but maybe they want you to buy an ebee for that!"

"Thanks Waladi,
The app shows the estimated photo coverage based on the known camera parameters (focal length, sensor size) and the location of the image trigger. The images are not being sent in real time. Geotagging is done on the ground after the…"

"Wow, that is incredible. What sort of flight times does it manage? Can it handle any wind? I'm assuming it's for outdoor use given the GPS."
"@Pmarche - we are aiming to have the beta available by late January. I'll put another post on here at that time"
"Thanks for your comments everyone. I will put up another post when the beta is open.
@Alexey - I agree the differences between drones is difficult to manage. Even with the APM:Copter/Plane platforms there are little things that can catch you out,…"
