    Will WKM MCU accomodate 2 RC systems?

    New to this situation....... seems to me that the optimal setup is to have one person on the ground to manually fly Hexa or Octo copter and another, i.e., videographer/photographer remotely controlling the gimbal via separate Tx and Rx. This seems to suggest the WooKong M MCU would need to...
