Re: Airplane mode
Thank you Patrik - I will try this ASAP
I really hope this is the missing link to my progress
EDIT:
Processing seems to help out - now I see small changes to GUI.
I'm currently at work so no MultiWii to test on...must continue testing at home

Re: Could MWC Be Used as a Head Tracker?
Alex is right - I forgot to mention the mag sensor.
I think parts of code can be reused (like reading sensors) and some parts require new code (inject ppm into TX)
This could be a spinoff
Best regards - UndCon

Re: barometer activate/deactivate?
The barometer is for altitude hold.
You activate it by a switch on your radio when you fly at desired altitude.
The software tries to maintain this altitude during this action.
I have a BMP085 lying on my desk but it is not connected yet.

Re: Frame for aerial video
My frame flies well even with camera weight at one end - the drawback is the 2 motors that has to rev up a bit extra as they carry the extra load.
If you move weight rear to center the weight the load will be even on all motors.
