John Wolcott replied to Luke's discussion Herelink + UGCS in UgCS
"Is there any integration between UGCS and Mission Planner? Can a UGCS export (XML) be imported to MP?

John Wolcott replied to John Wolcott's discussion Mavlink / WIFI gateway for camera control
"Yes. The 1st. It would not stream video, it would mainly be mode changes (photo/video) and zoom commands - which from initial indications from some packet traces seem to be pretty small. All video feeds would be done over an hd downlink radio link."

John Wolcott replied to John Wolcott's discussion adding fields to OSD
"Well that last statement scares me. Does that mean there are no mavlink compliant osd products that take pixhawk telemetry and overlay them on a video feed to the ground? What is solo using?"

John Wolcott replied to John Wolcott's discussion Mavlink / WIFI gateway for camera control
"Not sure I am explaining this well.

So how the camera control works is that the camera has a web server running that connects to a wifi network and gets an IP address. You then use a web browser on a client on the same network (PC/iPad/iPhone/etc)…"

i was hoping acro mode would cause a plane running a pixhawk and arduplane to act like a plane equipped with as3x. With as3x you have full rate control of the plane and as3x just dampens out uncommanded movements and locks attitude when sticks are…
