The key idea is that it has logging system, data decoding, automatic landing etc.
All tested since a year with one thing in mind: step out of your car, fly, move to the next position, fly, iterate, then get home and decode into results.
This assumes specific reliability and eliminating a lot of silly little bugs, like non-working connections in some scenarios, testing all possible configurations of waypoints etc. Therefore this is something you cannot expect from a group of volunteers, as there is always a large amount dirty, annoying job that nobody wants to do.
It has logging, USB connectivity, copy-past waypoint editing, export scripts to Google Earth, mission simulator, all the things that work 'as intended'.

thanks for the info kryzs. I will read into it a bit more. It seems a really good system but at this point in time I dont think I would get away with spending the money..
Sgt ric....I wasn't sure as to how it was spelt so I went for the 'safe' option knowing kryzs would answer it as it was in his section about his flexipilot system and when he replied I would hopefully find out how he spelt his name.
