"Top work lads... We never thought we'd be relying on cloud recognition but it worked brilliantly, if a little slower than we'd have liked. In a real world situation the rescue teams would have been on their way to Joe within 15 minutes of landing.…"
"Cheers JB!

"Cheers Stephen, request sent.
It's the new Hobby King (who else) Phantom FPV.
Horizon HD is great... but not too sure if I want to carry the screen with me as I like a minimalistic electronics bay and want as little weight as possible in this bird.…"

"Nice work Stephen!
Just put together a new bird to try! It's my first APM flying wing.
I think the size is pretty much perfect (1550mm). Should be good for somewhere around 35 - 40 mins with a 5000mah, is slow flying and fits in the car easily…"

"Hi there JB.
Mate, I would love to attend. Unfortunately I'll be offshore until at least the 27th.
I know that due to my work commitments I can't fully commit to the OBC but I will help out in any way that I can. I would love to see a WA group…"

"What sort of range is the maximum used at the OBC? I've had a play with Ubiquiti Bullets (5 - 6Ghz) and the range wasn't brilliant... It was tested indoors though using a cloverleaf / helical combination. What models were you thinking of using JB?…"

"It's a long drive... but I've just bought 20 acres 10 minutes from Mount Barker and far from any "aircraft landing zones" so feel free to use it for a test site. I have , 5.7 - 5.8 Ghz and 900 Mhz (directional helicals) that you may borrow and have…"
Sorry if i'm out of line for starting this discussion. (it's not as though Kevin isn't busy enough)Here's somewhere you can post ideas for Andropilot.I'll start off with a simple one.As screen space is at a premium, do you think it is worth dividing…
"Good to hear you got the Penguin airborne! Any video yet? II still would like to get one but will have to save a little longer.
I have just been playing with Andropilot! Seriously guys, this looks to be great GCS option. If you have an android…"

As for airframe...
My Skywalker (the one on special) is very good but flimsy in the tail. It does fly very very well though and is stable.
I also have a raptor 2m which is unsinkable... but suffers from lack of…"

"Umm.. Is it just me or is everyone over thinking this?
I'm using a ubiquiti Bullet M5 with an IP camera and its smoothy goodness. Barely any latency. I'm only running a cheap 640x480 IP cam at the moment for ground testing but i'm sure higher…"
