"Vorney, the reason you don't get anything on the screen with QGC is because they can't fix all the problems to make the program work so they keep screwing around with the user interface! Around the first of the year they did an update to the GUI…"

"Well, crooks like Hobby King should have criminal charges filed against them for selling non flying RTF models but that would be hard to do since I think they are in Hong Kong.  Also the criminal mastermind behind the Pixhawk and QgroundControl is a…"

"Right, I learned that most Youtube videos showing drones actually flying put up by paid video producers are fakes and most reviews of products by paid reviewers are lies.  Oddly the fanboys of QGC deny any problems even though hundreds of bugs and…"

"Again, it doesn't matter which one you choose since neither one will ever work!  I've been trying for almost 2 years now and haven't been able to get any of this crappy shareware to work.  Actually I don't think it's possible to build a drone at…"

"It turns out there is really no choice about which to use since none of the software works at all anymore except Qgroundcontrol! When I first tried to use it back in August none of the software would work!  Qgroundcontrol was so screwed up after an…"

"Andre, do you know of a version of the program that will work in Mint?  Like I said I tried all the different ones listed and none of them work except the next to the last one that seemed to be installing but then disappeared and I can't find it…"

"Richard, I wasn't even sure what to ask when I first started since I was so shocked by what a total failure all the software was!  I tried Qground first and it wouldn't even run in Windows after being installed!  I used the work around of installing…"

"Chris, is there any way to test the PX4 in order to verify that it's good or not?  If it work for planes it would seem to be good though."

"Andre, I'm not a programmer so that doesn't help me very much.  I used to like Ubuntu years ago but I don't use it now since it spies on you and has too many ads. "

"Thomas, I don't have telemetry, RC or anything like that yet, just the PX4 on the PX4IO card. In order to simplify things and remove any outside influences I took off the PX4 and unplugged the extra cables so now it's just connected with a USB cable…"

"Andre K.  It must be doing something different for planes since that's the only kind of craft that will work, even the GPS works! Too bad I don't have a plane!  So how do you get it to work in Linux?  I have Linux Mint 17 on one of my laptops so I…"

"Sgt Ric saying  that "thousands of users use Mission Planner" isn't any help since it won't work for me!  I remain skeptical since I haven't seen any proof that any of this software works at all."

"When I tried APM Planner 2.0 for Windows I got nearly the same results.  It works OK when the PX4 is configured as a Plane but when I try to use it as a copter it says it's erasing the flash then updating the firmware and then says it completed OK…"

"I have a PX4FMu V1.7 and PX4IO V1.3 connected with USB since that's all I have so far. I assume it's from 3DR.   So when I select the Plane in Mission Planner it says it's erasing then updating the firmware and the red lights turn off on the PX4 at…"

"As a work around I dug out my old T40 with Windows XP and tried it on that.  The ancient USB driver does work in XP so it can connect now without giving a driver not found error. Mission Planner still doesn't work and can't connect to the PX4 but…"
