"I think your going to run into the problem that DJI was NEVER meant to be an open system. More of an open box, fly, crash a few times then throw way kinda thing. I know that doesnt help you much, but its one of the primary reasons we fly open…"

"Put the PGS/MAG on a pedestal if you can. Also running the autotrim (not Autotune) might solve your problem"

"2 points.

1. Is that when you can RTL from a boat, I would fly the copter as close as possible before hitting RTL, so that the boat hasnt had a chance to moved much since it acuired its GPS fix. (Now I am making the assumption that the newer RTL…"

"1. Being as how RTL is coded to return to certain point, Im sure you could code a secon (Think RTL2 that returns to a different point....but It appears its already being looked at.

2 If you have a quad or other multirotor.....Pixhawk has become a…"

" foam safe ca is what I use for gluing 3d printed stuff to my plane"

"His person is completely valid. Last I checked this is an open source software site and the hardware for his 2.7 an exact copy of the 2.6 and all the things that apply to a 3DR apm apply to it."

"I think maybe your over complicated things. If you load the mission to APM (or pix) at your house then there still in there when you get to where you going. Can you just hit auto (or whatever) without reloading waypoints that are already in the IMU?…"

"ID say about 90% or more of knockoffs work just fine. And 3DR has made there money and doesnt support (for copters anways) now.  Although for planes its still works great because the code is way smaller and doesnt have to run as fast. So technically…"

"Maybe your making this to complicated. If you can remotely control a drone then why not remotely control a heater?"

"I dunno, you may want to go with a multicopter. Or maybe a maybe an octocopter with 4 arms and motors on top and bottom."

"AKA Surface Pro"

" Stay the hell away from the RT....It's a stripped down piece of junk. But if you get a Surface (1 or 2 are basically the same) on ebay for $180 to $300..And thats with a core I5 CPU and an SSD drive. Beats most laptops. Anyways it has good battery…"

"I just picked up one those Aluminum cases from Harbor Frieght, Picked up a surface one and made a mount for it (they can be for $200)  I also have an lcd panel I score of a laptop I was going to use with a pi.....but now I am thing of just picking…"

"Try saving your values and redoing your firmware"

"You really should invest in a tablet. a 10.1" Motorola Zoom with Verizon LTE  (or set up your phone as a hotspot) can be had on ebay for $80 to $100 and supports USB. Another good option (Especially since you can set up your drone from the tablet)…"

"Ok So what about flying over private land with the owners consent (Like A farm) and staying under 400 feet. That should be Private airspace and not require any permit right? I mean maybe draw up a paper for the own to sign that gives you permission…"
