New! APM Planner 1.0

Posted by Michael Oborne on June 5, 2011 at 7:20am

Over the past couple of weeks I have been busy reworking my original APM Mission Planner. Together with my partner/designer Samantha Nelson we have focused on improving the APM Planner’s interface, ideally resulting in a more intuitive user experience.

Below are a couple screenshots of the new APM Planner!

This look great , today i looked at openpilot and dream about a GUI like that , and look after 2 hours my dream come true.

The only thing i miss , is the graphic output of the transmitter .

otherwise it's really fine

Chris, I was accustomed to the old version of design, however after a few minutes of using the new one I also asked myself: why do I need the old one!? The interface is very user-friendly, so it's easy to get used to it.

Will it be possible to integrate the maps of for example the area you are flying in so that internet connection is nescessary ?

Krill: the new APM planner does everything the old one did. Why do you want the old one?

Wow! Great job!

Will old APM planner be supported?

Lovely!

can you change the displayed units of altitude and speed? Although in Europe the standard units for flying are usually ft and knots or miles per hour.
