My Flash based ground station is now up and running. I'm using Serproxy to connect Flash to the Serial Port and the Xbee radios. I have a simple command parser on the plane integrated with the the GPS parser so I can have 2 way comm over the single serial port. I can send basic WP commands or PI tuning values. GPS is collected and output as KML values through Copy and Paste.

Is it possible to play with the source (Fla) file? Ill have a look at slotting in a comms driver. What version Flash did you code with?
BTW - Thanks...very good work!
Here is the latest version. I've hacked around a lot with it. I won't be able to help you much more than suggest you except:
Allow the enclosing folder to run this app.

Download and setup serproxy.
good luck.

Did you get a chance to post that GCS exe file? If so where can I find it?
Thanks, I love the interface, very sleek!
This is compatible. It runs when you set the GCS protocol to 5 "Jason's GCS"
I use a piece of software to connect Adobe Flash to the serial port called Serproxy. That's the tricky part. It also does not record the telemetry to a file. You need to copy paste to do that.
When I get home tonight, I'll post the latest as an exe.

Is this compatible with 2.6 code? Is it available as a download?
I think there's alot of ground station code out there (see my VB HUD), yours has very beautiful graphics !!! And you have a nice feature with the uplink.
Should run fine on any PC or Mac less than 5 yrs old.
