"Just curious, have any of you flown the DJI S800 with Wookong and Zenmuse? I was lucky enough to try one and I would put money on it if you did a multicopter Procerus shootout.

"Congrats! That is really an awesome achievement! To be honest, when you first advertised your site on RCGROUPS a few years ago, I didn't think it would last long. I am glad I was wrong! Good job!

FYI,For those of you who may be persueing this as more than a hobby. (I am not affiliated in any way, just a heads up).-daveAttached : UAS Course Flyeruav course.jpg
I just recieved my copy of Unmanned Vehicles Handbook 2009 from the Shephard Group. Compared to the nearly $2000 Janes Defense wants for thiers, I think it is a good deal at $80.See pics below.uav book 1.jpguav book 2.jpg
"Just another note, you were saying something about antennas in the wings, don't forget to consider the possibility of cross polarization and resulting attenuation. You may need to have your stick pointed up. And...something else that we have done is…"
"I believe I may be the fire fighter that was mentioned earlier in this thread. I work for Miami Dade Fire Rescue and I have proposed the idea to our department. Although there were high levels of optimism, ultimately it boiled down to the CoA. As…"

I have an emergency project and I need your help. I am putting a presentation together for the fire department where I work on UAVs. I need info or links as to why UAVs are better than manned vehicles. Specifically, I remember some aircraft crashing…
"I recieved your comment, but you ask no question. I am not sure how to help you."
"I am using one by AnthonyRC http://www.aeropix.ch/store/ Most of the FPV (First Person View) guys are using something similar. Buy one! You can get a small pan/tilt mount from http://www.dpcav.com/xcart/product.php?productid=16162&cat=0&am...... and he…"
I was curious to know how many of you are members of AUVSI. It seems that is the professional organization to join if you are serious about this hobby. I have been a member for two years, but seldom see or hear it mentioned. I was also curious what…
"I have seen some small light weight MPEG-4 video compressors that will take HD and compress it for use over a broadband network. Sending your compressed video by 54Mb 'g' or 'n' Wifi may work, but then with all that compression you may have better…"
