Nice James. Good to see that you're in the air. You'll have to come to a Perth FPV meetup and show off your kit :D

Cheers,

Im not sure if any of you have experience with this, but I am right in thinking all i would need to do is get the ardupilot set one spare pin to HIGH for say 200ms when it reaches the desired waypoint?
