Nicolas Brieger replied to Nicolas Brieger's discussion DGPS / RTK Corrections over MissionPlanner
"Hi Michael,

Thank you for you answer! We have the same module as you in the video, the Septentrio AsteRx-M UAS. I have verified the com port and baud rate multiple times, but I will verify today. Have you used RTCM or SBF as the transmission…"

Nicolas Brieger commented on Nicolas Brieger's blog post Digital FPV with X8
"Hi,I'm kind of active, too. The equipment listed above is used and usable but not for close proximity FPV. Higher up in the air, latency is not that much of an issue and the 300ms are flyable. It is far from ideal but I have not gotten further in…"

"@Cala: Sorry, I missed your comment. The mission planner should work with every GIS application that has WMS server capabilities which includes ArcGIS."

"Great to see that it helps! I envy you for your flying environment...
I would recommend to use the CGIAR version of SRTM (http://srtm.csi.cgiar.org/) which contains less errors. For better visualization you could also try to convert the DEM to a…"

"Hi Michael,

take a look at http://stefan.gofferje.net/projects/uav-projects/x8-setup-list where Stefan collects data of X8 configurations. I'm using a Hacker A30 10XL with a 12x8.5 prop. Using 10000mAh 4S packs you can easily get more than an hour…"

"Thanks for the comments!
OziExplorer is great, then I don't have to do any more convincing on why to use your own maps.

So tell me, what is the goal of this post? The goal is that you, too, see a picture like this: And... why would anyone want this when we have global satellite coverage via Google Maps? In some parts of the world, Googles satellite imagery is not…

When using the automatic takeoff and landing system it would be very useful if a "change altitude while loitering" command were present. If the mission altitude is high, a very long glideslope has to be planned for Arduplane to lose enough altitude…

"Hey,

it was functional but as I said, I ripped it out - it was just too unstable for rough landings. I'm now starting the X8 using a bungee cable which works like a charm. I'd recommend not to use the retracts.
