I built this with intentions to get into mapping. I set it up and played with it a few times but it sits around more than anything. Comes with everything pictured except for the receiver(free if you want it). Add your transmitter/configure it and…

"is this it with #1 being on the left of the pixhawk?"
I'm sure this question will be answered eventually in the wiki, but say someone wants to use the older style 3dr radios. What is the pinout of the pixhawk telemetry plug? The other end of the pigtail will be cut and soldered directly on the…
"Thanks for the post. I could not get consistent results and had to revert back my go pro before. Excited to try this out."
