    HDMI converters for things like a Black Magic would be a stellar find! As for cameras, anything that's relatively small with all the right things in easy to work with places would be good. Affordable Pix4D?

    MultiRotorForums.com to attend CES!!!

    Up and coming for 3D Robotics please. Current release trends indicate bigger and better stuff in the works. Also new product plans from Eagle Tree. I have the feeling these two makers will soon become the prime players in the U.S. market. Ready Made may be another. Sent from my iPhone...

    See and Avoid

    I agree with your line of reasoning but the FAA has the long standing distance separation rules from persons and structures on the ground that virtually prohibit anything we can involve ourselves with at low levels. We need significant changes in those regulations in moving forward.

    MR Representative Organizations

    After reading and participating in a couple of threads applicable to organizations representing our endeavors I'd like to put some thoughts out in the public domain about where I think things are going. I don't expect to make everyone happy with this but at the same time I believe the...
