"Hey Graham, I want to write some new update post soon but here is the current status:
I went into a bit of trouble to get a good cross platform receiver application done. Currently I'm searching for a new way (again) to get it work on a second…"

Happy new year diydrones community, I wan't to give you a bit of real-life footage of OpenFPV.The footage is recorded on the ground station via screen capture to give you a more realistic feeling.I had not transmissions problems in 15 minutes flight…
"@Gregory D Great Project, thanks for posting. I started to use the odroid-w and it is incredible, I started to build a new enclosure for the board and the camera and it is as big as a GoPro. For me it is a big step into the right direction.
Btw. I…"

"@benbojangles Yes the OSD data will come via wifi too. But not merged into the video feed. Yes I considered that too and I'll keep this in mind. For the current state it is more practical with a notebook.

"Thanks @benbojangles ,Basically it is a single-board computer (like the RaspberryPi) with a camera attached. This sends the signal down to the ground with standard wifi or HSDPA. On the ground you need currently a laptop yes. What it makes different…"
"@bocorps I do not know how much it draws but I try to figure out. The Rocket M5 looks pretty robust and professional, not a bad decision. The cheaper hardware always feels cheap, even the CLS one. As mentioned in a comment before the CLS is a bit…"
"Thanks to all for the good and justified questions. I try to answer all as good as I can.
@Jonek Thanks, my last range tests were made with a 2.4 GHz setup. I achieved 3000 meters line of sight, anyways my goal is around 500 meter or a bit more. I…"

"@Bim The chipset is: RT5572"
"@Bim, thanks :) - I got them from amazon, a german company called CSL is distributing it. I know there is a raspberry compatible ralink chip inside. I not tested the ranke yet, but it is promising. I know that it supports up to 30db if it is…"
"@lot Thank you, that should be possible, I have not a lot of experience with android but I will work on a LTE version with iPad / iPhone, android support in the future."
"OpenFPV Update 2: http://diydrones.com/profiles/blogs/openfpv-update-2-roadmap-for-20..."
I have worked hard in my sparse time to improve OpenFPV. I got a lot of mails from interested people around the world and can't wait to share the latest results with you. Your support is amazing, and my goal is to bring this project alive as soon as…
"If the results with it are good, we will definitely use it. The biggest problem with the Raspberry is the space and weight."
I saw this Raspberry Pi clone today the first time and will definitely try it in september. A lighter, smaller alternative to the rpi.From the description:ODROID-W is a miniature computing module which is fully compatible with all software available…
