"Martin, 

I am using Ubiquiti Bullet 5M,  it is 5Ghz @600mw on each end and it will hit 50 miles easy...been there got the Tshirt"

"No, I have not, do you have a link?

I just found them... the long range version on only rated at 1/2 mile
I need 50 miles and control besides nRT HD Video
I am not worried about the cost, within reason. I need reliability"

"Thanks, I will
Now, I need to find a Debian,Ubuntu,gStreamer,firmware,network guru to do my bidding

Know any?, I'm hiring

Actually, if someone has these skills, has the time and want's to be involved... I'll supply the hardware, real US Benjamin's…"

"Realistically, with Mavlink, joystick and HD Video and camera functions...  around 100ms at 150mbps is attainable...I think, possibly, maybe"

"Sure, I have no choice but use Digital video, but what not use an IP camera with better optics and imagers then bypass the latency in the USB bus or the ACK,NACK in the ETH0

Befinitiv's very elegant "wifi broadcast" will be much more efficient and…"

"I decided to move to Beagle Bone Black for two main reasons:

My needs require a minimum of 4 UART's and multiple GIO for my specific mode functions
I do not need the Graphics processor included in the Raspberry Pi

Thanks for the earlier…"

"That's the issue ... I'm on a Pi2 b+ and I do not have a  Pi A/B

Thanks for the heads up  Jeremy"

"I downloaded, unzipped and imaged the AirPi from the posted SWAT build on 3 different 16gb micro SD cards (class10)

none would boot...must be an issue with the bootloader in the recent builds

Strange indeed"

"OK Paul,

I looked at the swat link you sent...looked at the ground pi app and noticed that it requires $3.99 purchase to unlock it

Right now,I use gstreamer.apk it works the same without the v4l2-ctl camera control built in... I can do that via…"

"Thanks Martin...awesome...I thought this should work"

"Direct connection to the available UARTS on the Pi?
Bypassing the laggy USB interface

You tell me!"

"Thanks Paul...reading now"

"Found this definition;

Monitor mode
Monitor mode is a passive-only mode, no packets are transmitted. All incoming packets are handed over to the host computer completely unfiltered. This mode is useful to see what's going on on the network.
With…"

"It is only a matter of defining the port from wlan0 to eth0 I believe.. I could be wrong as I'm not an expert in this area. All of these devices are at the base, serial devices right"

"Perfect Solution!

Thanks"
