Great work on uav ground control stations

Hi all,I was wandering around and guess what I found, an M.Sc. Thesis by Philip S. Anderson about the development of a UAV ground control station.I haven't read it yet but it seens to be a really nice reference. He uses LabVIEW which by what I have seen is a very popular software among us(uhhh but I still a newbie).What I think is a nice point of his project is that he actually built the system and put it on a van, so we can have a taste of what the military guys have :DJust for the sake of knowledge, I'm attachig his work(am I infringing any law, copyright or anything like this?).Ground Control Station.pdf

Getting started

Okay, I just bought my freeduino and a ADXL330(Wiimote 3-Axis Accelerometer module). I bought everything at seedstudio which cost me USD $45, a bargain, since here in Brazil just the freeduino would cost me slight less than the double.When these two little babies arrive I will start myself in arduino programming and DIY stuff, since I started my computer science course I felt in love with this kind of stuff. I started reading in a daily basis things about PICs, eletronics, automations, DIY, you name it. But I think I have read enough, I need to go to the next level the one which we do something :DFreeduino - way too expensive in Brazil.(USD $40)
