I don't remember hearing about the future possibility of video transmission via Flutter I know it's not anywhere close but as far as known limits would it eventually be possible?

This should certainly be possible, and I am hoping someone brings this up with a raspberry pi + pi camera on experimental 1mbps firmware. smile

I'm planning on using the Navio autopilot board for my hex which uses a raspi and already have a camera module(the noir version) so awesome

Shouldn't need the autopilot board actually - Flutter can handle comms and flight. smile
Should make for cheap drones!

well yes I'm planning on seeing what I can do to make flutter a stand alone solution stuck_out_tongue this is a stop-gap measure of sorts, and the Raspi is to handle some harder stuff I plan on doing, since flutter isn't multi-core

Yeah, I think Flutter + Raspi is a good solution. I will make sure to send you the "Drone shield" I have made if you want to bring up some autopilot software on this platform. I plan on building some drones too. smile

Yeah it's the "RC Shield" from the campaign, which has 4 servo outputs and a bunch of ports for analog and serial (TTL for GPS and I2C for gyro). There's a picture of it in the last update, I think.

Nice frame! I like the hex frames. I'm working on a sick motor driver too. Two actually, 100w and 2kw. Has the Flutter CPU onboard and they can be daisy chained.

oh yes the RC shield I actually ordered one smile got a RC car from my job at the hobby shop that has a defective radio. they were gonna chunk it but I brought it home and hope to revive it with flutter

The RC shield is badass. I'm using it in the Flutter remote control car and it's great, though I need to make some changes before we go into production (which I'm hoping I can do next week).
