Description

I am constantly upgrading my flying drones. The latest gadget is a GPS....... This allows me to lock on to the alltitude and position. It almost flies itself. It can also perform an automated landing on the same spot it took off from. RTH, return to home, will start automaticly if I lost radiocontact with the drone. Here is a video off the very first GPS position hold and alltitude hold. VIDEO: ............SEE THE GPS TEST..........

This technology is just incredible isn't it? Soon we'll probably have pizza delivery drones... ;-)
