    Can receiver outputs be shared/split?

    Yes, no problem at all doing this, and it's probably a pretty good idea. I built LED code right into the Arducopter program because it has LED drivers built-in, so it can do all sorts of neat things, like indicate GPS lock, armed/disarmed status, and blink when it hits waypoints, etc. But...

    Two clients want me to fly their RED EPIC cameras - advice?

    This is all completely untrue. I've heard the idea about using too large of an ESC causing heating, but never seen any well described reason. I am currently using a 100A ESC on a 600 Heli, but in fact it only averages about 25 amps. It's totally cool when it comes down. Unfortunately in the...

    Wired Magazine cover and article about drones

    Ok, back from reading the OP thread, and the link to the 7 page thread on DIYD where they chose which code to "adopt". I really can't see the issue. It appears to me like the AeroQuad people *welcomed* Chris Anderson to adopt their code. Is there some hidden stuff I've missed? Besides which...

    Wired Magazine cover and article about drones

    Actually, I do intend to go through that link, but I haven't had time to read all 7 pages yet. I simply put a quick post in here while eating breakfast. Also, you may or may not be able to see (but moderators can confirm) that I actually registered 2 weeks ago, before this was even posted. I...

    Wired Magazine cover and article about drones

    Yes, you've said what you said, but never backed any of it up. And the comparisons to Hitler... frankly it's pathetic. That type of talk should discredit your opinion in any reasonable person's eyes.

    Wired Magazine cover and article about drones

    As I said, I'm not going to get into a debate about Chris Anderson, or the article. I will say that I personally at first had feelings similar to you, until I got to know him better, and realized that my perception was based on my own social stereotypes, and were not reality. If you go on a...

    Wired Magazine cover and article about drones

    Ok, so can you show examples where code was used and not give full-attribution? You seem to be very convinced of these facts, so you must have concrete examples? As for the second claim of share-alike, that would be even more difficult to show. Our source is completely open. Anybody could...

    Wired Magazine cover and article about drones

    Jes, how exactly do you "steal" Open Source work? Do you have any examples? Our source is open, so it should be easy to find. (yes, I am a developer, but never a fanboy). Don't want to turn this into a pissing contest and I won't comment on the article. I wasn't around back in 2007 to know...
