I would like to announce the first RC1 release of APM Planner 2.0. This is a cross platform Ground Control Station to accompany the consumer release of Pixhawk and Iris for APM:Plane, APM:Copter & APM:Rover. More information can be found here on the APM Forums

Please post support requests to http://ardupilot.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=82

Happy Holidays, hope everybody is enjoying some flying :)

    Hi Bill,

    Congratulations, great job. Is there a forum where we can ask support questions etc. (Other than submitting issues in Github)?

    Wohhoo, now this is a x-mas gift. Thanks to all for the hard work making a cross platform GCS available that works nicely with APM.

    @Sergio: please raise issues here https://github.com/diydrones/apm_planner/issues 

    There is support in the code for multiple MAVs, but it needs some testing before being production ready. if you do test, please let us know what happens and we will happily work out the fixes. :)

    Hi!!, there is missing Cruise flight mode in flight mode menu..., also... When i connect to the apm2.5 via 3dradio the cmd window stays open. Good Work!, with this version we can see all the mav drones connected in the world??

    You can compile for linux and do a 'make install'. We are working on instructions and a pre-built package to download. We will post them as soon as we have it. If you need help in the meantime please PM me

    Congratulation to the release! I'm quite happy to see that the QGroundControl codebase is now not only embraced by Parrot for the AR.Drone 2.0 and used by AutoQuad as GCS, but sports the next generation GCS for APM, too. You did a very good job at adding the Mission Planner look and feel and adding the configuration screens for APM.
