SmartAP controlled by DroidPlanner

Here is a video of user Kirill controlling a quad (which uses SmartAP autopilot) using a tablet running Droidplanner.

 

He is using his own Autopilot called SmartAP

For the telemetry link there is only a WiFly module on the quad ( he is using the wire antenna module, but I strongly recommend the SMA type). Android tablet works in Router mode and WiFly is connected to it as a client.

The app is DroidPlanner, and can be downloaded on google play. For more info you can check the following blog posts:

 

And the github site.

 

The range is about 100m with the WiFly with wire antenna. But user Rana  seams to be having good results using a RF amplifier to extend that range.

I would like to thank's to Kirill and Rana for their support.

PS: Be careful if you are testing the app since it is in development.
