From basic configuration to the GCS utilities, from planning complex drone missions to visualizing data analysis report - Mobile and Web Application Interfaces have an important role to play in any commercial drone applications of the day.
A rich UI/UX helps drone operators execute the tasks efficiently, enable them to visualize data captured by drone in the correct form, thereby enabling them to make better decisions on and off the field.
FlytBase Drone SDK (aka FlytSDK) for Mobile/Web Applications provides the right tools for developers to jumpstart their Drone App development process. Using the Drone APIs (aka FlytAPIs) developers can quickly build and customize their drone applications.
The SDKs have Web and Android libraries pre-integrated. So, developers don’t need to worry about including related libraries or initializing the socket connection. A basic framework/template is readily made available for the REST or Socket calls.
Directly start editing the app screen, add your REST calls and telemetry data subscription to build your application.
You can try out prebuilt sample apps, or use these as templates to build your own apps by following these simple steps.
Developers can get started by referring to the documentation.
Extensive documentation and sample codes are available here: http://docs.flytbase.com, https://github.com/flytbase/flytsamples

FlytOS is compatible with PX4 on autopilot. We are coming with Ardupilot support in about a week's time.
You can write apps using FlytOS Drone APIs in ROS, C++, Python, Rest or Websocket.
What are the requirements on an autopilot to be compatible with your drone kit (FlytOS) ? Is it ROS or something else in addition ? I assume current Ardupilot is not compatible or is it ?
