Hey everyone, I would like to take this opportunity to post a screenshot of the groundstation I've just begun work on. I haven't gotten very far in the short time I've been working on it, but my goal is to release it around the same time as the upcoming ArduPilot Pro, which should have the ability to use a two-way digital radio for control. That gives me a good chunk of time for development and tuning.
I've put more time into playing around with different layouts than anything else so far, and I think I've settled on one that seems servicable. I would greatly appreciate it though if other community members (particularly those involved with ArduPilot Pro development) could let me know what you think of the direction I'm going... it would be much better to know sooner than later if I'm barking up the wrong tree!I should also mention that currently the "File" menu is set up as follows:"Load MissionSave Mission-------------Import KMLExport KML-------------Load PlaybackSave Playback-------------Exit"(there is nothing under "Settings" yet)Finally, for anyone interested in the code itself, I've been developing in Python using wxPython for the GUI elements.
