Spaying accuracy is one of the most important reasons that the fully automatic drones are not widely used in the pesticide spraying application. The accuracy is mainly constraint by the GPS positioning accuracy.
But what about using DGPS (not mean SB

I use Pixhawk to fly my fixed RC model airplane. Now my aircraft carries a smoke cartridge to release smoke during flight.
I would like to set up that the airplane, which is controlled by Pixhawk auto mode, could start and keep releasing smoke fr

Has someone here tried to put a DGPS on it? What are the steps to achieve that and what would be the least cost? I don't have a lot of money to spe
