Hello Everyone, long time no see. I'm the webmaster of the ardupilot chinese site.
In Sep 2015, I was been invited to join the First Session of the National Drone Education Alliance of China in Chengdu, Sichuan.
There was fifteen vocational colleges from all over the country join this meeting, try to find a practical syllabuses. Organizer of this meeting is a professor of Chengdu Technological University, he has confidence in ArduPilot, but other teachers do not know what that means. So this meeting do not have any direct result.
But now, more and more university include these colleges start to pay attention to ArduPilot. In industry field, ArduPilot customization business start to show up.
The Chengdu goverment develops drone industry vigorously. I'm trying to coordinate with them oganize a competition base on ArduPilot at end of June.

Yeah, I do need lots of help, but things are very very complex now. I’m trying to figure out a way make both side easy to undersand and cooperate.
I'll keep update my progress.
I think I could potentially make a trip to China some time to give some training, a future roadmap and to answer questions if that would be helpful.
my god ,if it is true that the attending meeting professor really dont know ardupilot, how can i imagine the so called the huge innovation of China and the scholar capability of research drone? how to evaluate the developmen of chengdu and local desire for the drone?even dont adopt the next generation uav plantform?
Nice Job!
