I would like to thanks everyone that is getting involved with the project, developing, donating and reporting bugs. Here is a list of the developers. I have made a small video of the project history (using gource), here it is (run in 720p to see the people/folders names):
For more information I suggest the DroidPlanner Wiki page. And as always if you want to help consider donating for the project by buying this app, joining the development team, or reporting a issue/bug/improvement on GitHub.

@John:
Could you post a video of the operation, seams like a good idea to have the bluetooth keyboard.
We don't have much to change the tunning, channel 6 behaviur, except for the parameters listing. But a couple more weeks and we will have a new version with all those features.
I have Droid Planner setup on my tablet and working great. I also got a small bluetooth keyboard so it is really easy to navigate. But, the main reason I wanted to use this was to assign different functions to channel 6 so I can tune my altitude/throttle gains to get a stead hover. I do not see an option to assign channel 6. i see channel 7 and 8, but not 6. Is there a way to do this?
Thanks
Currently you need to download them from the SD card of the tablet, and use Mission Planner to visualize.
how you visualize the logs saved on tablet?
Louis Ching, could you detail about your solution? I would like to make some, is it an AP that you connected the radio throught serial? If you can gove detail, model and configuration I appreciate.
@Louis
I have added you, I look forward to hear more about your solution.
Hi Arthur,Great admiration for your outstanding work!we are currently using the Hi-Power WiFi router(1000mw) as a in air AP, which makes the solution much simpler and shows the advantage of your App. could you add me in your frend list so we can chat by message pls??
Arthur, Just to clarify, that motorola xoom 2 i couldnt download from google play and couldnt run 0.8.0 apk was because its running android 3, our doubt is solved.
Thanks!
The best why is the app store, if you can't install from there you are probably don't have all the requirements to run it. Anyway here is a link to an older version, if it works senme a PM and I'll build the last version for you.
