"The pebble app can only be installed through the DroidPlanner settings menu.  The pebble obviously needs to be connected to do this, which means the pebble app needs to be installed on the device.  Do you get any error message when you try it?"

squilter commented on Colin Snow's blog post Which is Better: Open Source or Proprietary Drone Software?

"So I was about to upgrade my 9x.  What type of module should I be looking for to work well with the pixhawk?  PPM or S.BUS (I assume it would be ill-advised to get a PWM system any more)?"
