How cool is this: just draw a path on your phone/tablet and your APM drone will follow it! Congrats to Arthur for an awesome addition to DroidPlanner.
And you know that fun mobile game Flight Control? Now you can play it in real life with your APM Copter/Plane:

Well-done Arthur,
Congratulations.
Sorry it is not much but 5$ from me.
OTG ordered now...;-)
Arthur, there's $10 on it's way to you. Apologies it's not more.
Been meaning to get the OTG and get involved for ages, but "draw a path" is simply brilliant. I definitely want to try this, though I might wait until it's out of alpha first.
@Aaron, about the lack of donations, etc... it's hard for me to respond to this without saying something condescending or insulting but... There's a lot of people who are just really cheap, and don't value all the work that go into these systems. Look at all the people buying Chinese clones of the hardware because they can get it for half the price. They give no value at all to the development of the software that actually goes into it. $200 for a full boat autopilot system is just too much for them, when just 5-10 years ago it cost that much for a good single-axis gyro.
Anyway... I'm getting increasingly annoyed as more and more clone hardware comes out and I see more of this type of behavior. It's getting harder to bite my tongue.
Arthur - you're a star! Thanks for all your hard work and inspiration!
Great work Arthur. That's really impressive stuff.
