"Just a note, I was ramping up to use two USB cams, one IR one standard/RGB. The whole point was to do NDVI for crop health imaging. I wasn't even able to get as far as creating a map with the RGB alone, but the tests I did with geotagging images…"
"Okay, let's see if I can vaguely remember how it went (unfortunately I don't have access to my original code, long story but the drone I was working with wasn't mine)
I used pyexiv2 (http://tilloy.net/dev/pyexiv2/) for the actual geotagging. This…"

"@Waladi I've been messing around with it a bit, and have had success using pyexiv2 to write the location data to the metadata of a photo. I haven't been using a GoPro, however, but have been doing this with both a PiCam and a USB webcam. I might…"
"@Patrick Duffy, WiFi dongle, the same WF2561 that you had recommended. Like I said, I am able to connect, SSH in, and run MAVProxy on the Pi to connect to Mission Planner no problem. Only when I launch a stream when connected to the Rocket. "
"@Patrick Duffy, no errors on the main console. And the reason I believe it's an issue with the Rocket is that the stream works fine on my home router."
"@Patrick Duffy, it happens on the ground, while testing the connection. I SSH into the Pi to start the stream (this works fine, as well as the MAV link I use for Mission Planner control), then the shell freezes up when I start the stream. After a…"
"@Patrick Duffy- Thanks! Works fine on my main (2.4Ghz) network. Have you ever had an issue where the Rocket kicks the Pi after launching GStreamer?"
"@Patrick Duffy: Think it would be possible for you to post your pipeline for the C920? I'm still having a tough time with it. I've gotten ffmpeg and Motion to work with this camera, but the latency is terrible with those. "
"@Stephen Gloor - Unfortunately I haven't been able to get it to work. Gstreamer is indeed a tricky deal, haven't been able to find any hints on what to try next, tried different formats, calling the device different ways, etc. but all the same…"
"gst-launch-1.0 -v v4l2src ! h264parse config-interval=1 ! rtph264pay ! udpsink host=192.168.1.10 port=9000
And this is my webcam. It specifies MJPEG, so maybe it doesn't support h264? I'm not a codec expert..."

"I'm using an ELP 2MP cam. It's probably an odd-ball one, and that may be my issue. It does, however, work with just about everything else I've used it for with the Pi (an intervalometer script I wrote, Motion, etc.). All research I've done…"
"Got everything communicating now, and I have great range with just having it communicating with Mission Planner, but I'm having some issues with gstreamer. On my laptop, I get an error saying "gst-launc-1.0 is not a recognized command". Also, on…"
"@Patrick Duffy Thanks, I actually saw that right after I posted. Guess I should pay more attention to the previous comments haha.
Another issue I have run into: When I set my Rocket M5 up as an AP, I am unable to use the ethernet port as a…"

"@Patrick Duffy I recently got a Netis WF2561 for my setup, and bench testing it doesn't seem to be working with my Pi. Any suggestions? The adapter is working on my Windows 8 laptop, and I tested the four ports on the Pi, and they're all working.…"
"You mention the post-processing method for geotagging, but if you have the Pi hooked up to the Tele ports, could you use MavProxy to pull the coordinates to geotag the photos as it takes them?"
So I recently set up a quad using (similar to) @Patrick Duffy's long-range wifi system. So basically a Raspberry Pi running MAVProxy acting as both a communications radio and live feed transmitter back to my command center. I also wrote a short…
