contolling my phantom via my computer

[Green20]

Hi everybody

I have a new quadcopter DJI Phantom and I want that instead controlling it via the remote control tha the signals passed from this remote to an electronic card reliated to my computer and through an interface on it I order my quadcopter :roll:

I really need a help because I don't know from should I start !!!

Which model of the Phantom do you have exactly? If it's not a vision, you can use DJI's groundstation setup (which will work with a PC in addition to the iPad): http://www.dji.com/product/ipad-ground-station/

Here's some more details on what the PC interface is like: http://download.dji-innovations.com/dow ... n_v2.9.zip

to make it clear my project consist on making by myself an electronic card embedded into the remote control and to make this card communicate with my PC (through a graphical interface that I will realize) so that I can control this quadcopter by my computer ..
So what should I do as a first step in this project

Convince DJI to release an open API for the NAZA

If all you want to do is have a PC create the control input instead of the Tx sticks, you might be able to create an interface that does that, just replacing the mechanical stick input in the transmitter with input from the PC, and still broadcast over the 2.4GHz signal the transmitter normally creates.

But if you want to have any other interface between your PC and the NAZA, that's on lockdown by DJI.
