I for one would welcome a n00b thread. I would like to build a SkyWalker to take the place of my home made foam photo drone. It has basic RC gear. I just fly it around while the camera shoots. I am guessing that the SkyWalker would carry an 8 gram camera aloft with no problem?
And if you want to send telemetry via XBee, you need to replace "Serial.print" with "Serial3.print".
It took me 2 hours of frightened cable-switching before I figured this out (I hate switching cables on $270 worth of hobby hardware -- there's a big risk of letting the smoke out).
Ha! There's another special moment for us n00b5.
I had forgotten the choose the Arduino Mega in the Board options under 'Tools'.
It has been clear sailing from there.
