Re: FPV with TWO CAMERAS ?

Maybe a lens system with zoom ability would work just as well?


I guess so..
but i have already the extra lens (cheap lens x8 used for mobile phones positioned in front of the cam ) and is not the proper period for more "investments" :(

Re: Cheapest Simple Amega2560 board ?

@torvin This one http://witespyquad.gostorego.com/flight-controllers/multiwii-pro-ez3-0-flight-controller-w-gps-option.html looks identical like the one RCtimer sells. But they charge extra money for the pins + 9$ shipment to Greece.. so in total is more expensive Anyway ....thank you for your help.

Re: wishlist for v2.3

Probably a medium to read/store data like SD Card Reader should be implemented.
Imagine that ALL PIDs are stored in this medium and through GUI you are able to change and store them.
Also Way Points can be stored this way . ;)

I guess that if you use I2C GPS it is possible to share the data through I2C bus... right ?

Is it ?
