I am mostly interested in UAV as a platform for my camera.

"Sorry, it was just sold last week, and I forgot to close this discussion topic."
Hi all,I found out I enjoy flying more that I like tinkering, so I am switching to rtf drone and am selling my (oldish) UAV. It is an 3D Robotics hexacopter airframe + a Y frame conversion set + spare parts, and some electronics. To be specific:3DR…
"Yes, I've known it, but I too use QGIS most of the time. In ecology that package is slowly but surely overtaking ESRI, great integration with the also open source/free statistical package R."
"Hi Jethro,
it is great that you approach the technical side of things in such a methodical way. However, I think we should also look at the whole process: once your farmer has acquired his NDVI map of his crop, how should he interpret it? Is wheat…"

"Fantastic and like the lego lightbox. "
"Click the link Josh, and you can read about the situation of the crew. "
"A small suggestion: tie the modes you would want in PANIC situations (RTL and stabilise?) to the arduino ports with a interrupt function (2 and 3), so you can programme it to REALLY switches back quickly (use AttachInterrupt() )."
"Beatifully done, very very nice!"
"Great link. I like flite test, they seem to have lots of fun flying."
"It says in the news item that it is a stock-for-stock merger, and it probably takes a BSc in economics to understand exactly how that alI works, but I am pretty sure Bre cs are not actually handed a suitcase with half a billion US$."
"Bill, I am in Europe , I am only able to select fedex. Is this not right? If so, I will contact sales - thanks."
"Great that these are now available, as I just lost one of those "screw caps" of one of my prop holders. Guess I should have tightened them better.
Can I order them somewhere in Europe too? Not looking forwards to paying $45 for fedex for a $6…"

"Cute, want one too!"
"Well, almost the first at least: http://www.ted.com/talks/a_robot_that_flies_like_a_bird.html ...."

"Well, that is the positive half of the story.The other side is that legislation is being prepared about the certification of airframe and pilot, with some very strict rules. It seems to be legislation aimed at professionals though...."
