Re: Baseflight aka multiwii port to stm32

It's so convenient that it made me think, wouldn't it be perfect if Naze32 was included in the programmer drop down box? I wondered if we could use Naze32 to flash our ESC's instead. ...

Re: MultiWii OSD - MWOSD
Shikra, I was thinking about adding a fixed wing efficiency panel. A simple mi/mAh display would be a good start (groundspeed/amps); with that number we can practice optimal cruising speed (for max range). The display can also include sink rate per amp, which could be used to maximize flight time. M...
